How can you use “germinating” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Work presented here indicates that storage lipid breakdown is significantly delayed in germinating Arabidopsis seeds exposed to exogenous glucose.
Cold stress was evaluated by germinating surface sterilized seeds as described for three days under normal light and temperature.
Among the few studies done previously is one showing that expression of two genes involved in lipid metabolism is negatively regulated by sugars [ 31 ] . In addition, a study of glyoxylate cycle mutants showed a small inhibitory effect of sucrose on total lipid content in germinating seeds [ 58 ] . Results presented here indicate that mobilization of seed storage lipid by Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings is significantly retarded in the presence of exogenous glucose.
Exposure to exogenous sugars, such as glucose and sucrose, has long been known to retard rates of starch mobilization in germinating cereal seeds [ 13 23 ] . Therefore, it was of interest to determine whether exogenous sugars also affect rates of lipid mobilization in germinating seeds of plants, such as Arabidopsis thaliana , that store their energy reserves in the form of lipids.
Starch metabolism by germinating seeds must be tightly controlled to ensure an adequate supply of sugar to the developing seedling [ 13 23 ] .
