Example sentences for: prochlorococcus
How can you use “prochlorococcus” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Unicellular cyanobacteria such as Synechocystis, Synechococcus and Prochlorococcus have far smaller genomes and lack the ability to fix nitrogen (heterocyst formation).
Mfas: Macaca fascicularis , Mjan: Methanococcus jannaschii , Mka: Methanopyrus kandleri , Mlo: Mesorhizobium loti , Mma: Methanosarcina mazei , Mta: Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus , Mtu: Mycobacterium tuberculosis , Nm: Neisseria meningitidis , Oih: Oceanobacillus iheyensis , Osa: Oryza sativa , Pa: Pyrococcus abyssi , Pae: Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Pfu: Pyrococcus furiosus , Ph: Pyrococcus horikoshii , Pmar: Prochlorococcus marinus , Pmu: Pasteurella multocida , Pyae: Pyrobaculum aerophilum , Rsol: Ralstonia solanacearum , Sa: Staphylococcus aureus , Scoe: Streptomyces coelicolor , Sen: Salmonella enterica , Sme: Sinorhizobium meliloti , Spn: Streptococcus pneumoniae , Spy: Streptococcus pyogenes , Sso: Sulfolobus solfataricus , Ssp: Synechocystis sp.
For all of the operonic Anabaena/Nostoc Trp-pathway proteins used as queries, homolog sequences from other cyanobacteria ( Synechocystis, Synechococcus, Prochlorococcus ) were the remaining top hits returned in the BLAST queue.
Since the basic single-copy repertoire of dispersed aromatic-pathway genes shown in Figure 2for Synechocystis (Ssp) is representative of other cyanobacteria such as Synechococcus (Syn) and Prochlorococcus (Pmu) and is also present at dispersed extra-operonic loci of Anabaena and Nostoc , an obvious possibility would seem to be that the genes of the supraoperon originated by LGT in a common ancestor of Anabaena and Nostoc . If so, speciation was followed by different species-specific gene-insertion events.
In each case Prochlorococcus marinus and Synechococcus species are the outlying sequence group, with the other cyanobacterial sequences ( Nostoc punctiforme and Anabaena species) being closer to the higher plant sequences from A. thaliana and corn ( Zea mays ). The order of branching shown is supported by very high bootstrap values.
