Example sentences for: microsynteny
How can you use “microsynteny” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Although exceptions to the blanket application of this approach have been noted [ 22], our study successfully applied microsynteny analysis between the tomato and Arabidopsis genomes to facilitate positional cloning of the Dgt gene in tomato.
As would be expected if microsynteny were maintained, two additional markers, TC87150 (amidophosphoribosyi transferase, APRT) and TC47447 (basic leucine zipper transcription factor, bZIP), were determined to be non-informative MEST markers with respect to our positional cloning strategy because they fell outside TG269.
Given no rearrangement of tomato chromosome 1 and that microsynteny between tomato and Arabidopsis genomes remains firm, the predicted order of the new MEST and BAC end-generated markers in tomato would be as follows: TC47447 → TC87150 → TG269 → BG643476 → TC85079 → TC87127 → TC89380 → TG389 → AW624844 → TC92082 → TC98260 → CT190 (centromere to telomere, Figure 5).
In this case, conservation of microsynteny is most probably maintained because of the nested relationship of these genes, and this configuration in the outgroup Anopheles supports the scenario that transposition of Rh4 occurred at some point in the lineage leading to the Drosophila subgenus (see above, and [ 29, 30]).
Recent comparative sequence analyses and mapping studies have indicated that microsynteny and macrosynteny are also well conserved between Arabidopsis and evolutionarily divergent species such as tomato [ 10, 11] or soybean [ 12].
