Words similar to mesophilic
Example sentences for: mesophilic
How can you use “mesophilic” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
A broad temperature range (4 to 40°C) was used to represent the range of temperatures likely to support most mesophilic fungi [ 2 12 15 18 ] . Because the growth of mesophilic fungi can occur between 0 and 50°C with optima from 15 to 40°C, a temperature of 4°C may represent a conservative minimum at which mesophilic fungi grow and a temperature of 40°C may represent a conservative maximum at which mesophilic fungi grow.
An analysis of the putative functional assignments of the QuartOPs that grouped Halobacterium sp. with the mesophilic bacteria is given in Table 4. To assess which of these categories have an increased percentage of QuartOPs as compared to distribution of ORFs within the genome, we also calculated the distributions of ORFs among functional categories in the Halobacterium sp. and A. fulgidus genomes.
Furthermore, the fungal measures likely represent the abundance and richness of mesophiles, because the temperature (22°C) used to incubate inoculi falls within the temperature optima of mesophilic fungi.
Because extreme temperatures below freezing and above 40°C likely impede the growth of most mesophilic fungi regardless of moisture conditions [ 12 15 ] , one might predict that the length of the growing season would be positively correlated with fungal abundance.
The majority of QuartOPs that group the halobacterial orthologs with the ortholog from the mesophilic bactria belong to two of four meta-categories: "Information Storage and Processing" and "Metabolism".
