Example sentences for: napus

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

  • In order for being counted as exhibiting disagreement between the orthology bootstrap values and sequence similarity a query sequence had to fulfill the following two conditions: (i) it must have a least one ortholog with bootstrap orthology value above or equal to O , and (ii) all sequences in the alignment with bootstrap orthology values above N , must have distance ratios smaller or equal to R for at least one sequence with bootstrap orthology lower or equal to N . Sequences from the following species were ignored in this analysis (since they were the species of the query sequence or related to it): A. thaliana proteome: Rosidae ( A. thaliana, Pisum sativum , Glycine max , Cucurbita maxima , Cucumis sativus , Brassica campestris , Brassica napus , Citrus unshiu , Citrus sinensis , Theobroma cacao , Gossypium hirsutum ); C. elegans proteome: nematodes ( C. elegans , Caenorhabditis briggsae , Haemonchus contortus , Ascaris suum ).

  • Interestingly, wild-type Arabidopsis seedlings were shown previously to become insensitive to sugar-mediated inhibition of early seedling development within 2 to 3 days of the start of imbibition [ 47 ] . In addition, seedlings of Brassica napus , a close relative of Arabidopsis, undergo a dramatic metabolic shift during the same time period [ 67 ] . Approximately 2 days after the start of imbibition, B. napus seedlings shift from being dependent on lipid breakdown to being dependent on photosynthesis for sugar formation.

  • For example, storage lipids comprise 93% of the total lipid found in ungerminated seeds of Brassica napus [ 70 ] , a plant species that is closely related to Arabidopsis.

  • Cold tolerant Brassica napus, a close relative of Arabidopsis thaliana, demonstrated an increase in both subunit A mRNA and protein in response to chilling at 2°C [ 50 ] . This chilling also resulted in a concomitant increase in cell sap osmotic pressure and endogenous ABA accumulation.

  • Drought stress in winter Brassica napus resulted in a very similar response as cold stress, that is a dramatic increase in subunit A mRNA [ 50 ] . However, drought stress in Lycopersicon esculentum resulted in no apparent increase in mRNA levels for subunit A [ 60 ] .
