How can you use “husks” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Each organ is expected to have a unique combination of expressed genes, allowing organ identification and assessment of similarity with other organs as shown by the cladograms in Figure 2. It is interesting that the highly expressed genes in husks parallel what is found in other floral organs.
Because the husks were morphologically fully expanded leaf sheaths surrounding the ear, it was surprising that they expressed the same genes, such as MADS-box genes that are associated with early stages of flower development.
Physiologically, photosynthetic rates in husks are consistently measured to be around 20-fold lower in leaf blades [ 33].
Among the 12 samples, adult leaf blades (L9-L10) showed the highest number of genes expressed at a lower level than the reference organ (Table 2, and see extensive green color within Figure 2), whereas the husks and silks showed the opposite trend (extensive red color in Figure 2).
Of the flower-related genes, 32 are expressed at high levels in husks (Figure 2, node c).
