Example sentences for: kilobases

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

Small clones (< 1.4 kilobases (kb)) were sequenced with custom primers and larger clones were sequenced using either mapped or unmapped transposon insertions.
Major gaps (50-200 kilobases (kb)) comprise 16% of the assembly, whereas minor gaps (100 or fewer bp) and low-quality calls comprise 0.5%.
These 10 are spaced within a genomic interval of ≤ 28 kilobases, or approximately 1 per 2800 bases.
To test for this, we collected 3 kilobases (kb) of sequence downstream from each 3' intact L1 that we found in the genome [ 23 ] , formatted this collection of 3'-flanking sequences as a BLAST database [ 40 ] , and queried each putative transduced sequence against it (see Materials and methods).
With the exception of Arabidopsis thaliana, chromosome IV , the total sequence lengths in kilobases are listed in the fourth column ( kb ) of Table 1. All corresponding sample lengths are at least 96% of total length, and most are close to 99%, when texts were read in 20 kb blocks.
