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

  • The association of two independent chromosomal rearrangement events at one site: a pericentric inversion in the chimpanzee genome, and the insertion of a novel segmental duplication within the human lineage, may be a consequence of the overall genomic instability of this region.

  • Tandem duplication of a genomic segment (segmental duplication) is one of the possible outcomes of ‘unequal crossing over’, which results from homologous recombination between paralogous sequences.

  • The large number of repeats that match gene segments reflects the prevalence of segmental chromosomal duplications and tandem gene duplications in Arabidopsis.

  • It has been shown in multiple studies that regions of segmental duplication can be associated with evolutionary rearrangements [ 8 29 ] . The pericentric inversion of chimpanzee XVp, having been localized to a site of multiple segmental duplications in the human genome, indicates that the evolutionary rearrangement is likely to involve such sequences.

  • 3 previously described by Riley et al . [ 17 ] , and several copies of a duplicon described as Golgin-linked-to-PML (GLP) [ 18 ] and as LCR15 [ 19 20 21 ] . A third, previously undetected, potential segmental duplication was identified in the proximal third of the 600 kb region (Figure 4, indicated by the asterisk).
