Example sentences for: germinating

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 ] .
