Example sentences for: strain
How can you use “strain” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Although no comprehensive studies have been published on the taxonomic range of bacteria inhibited by K84, it is known that K84 produces multiple antibiotics and that K84 can inhibit strains of Erwinia and Pseudomonas that are unaffected by TFX [ 23 24 25 ] . TFX-producing strains inhibit only a very specific group within the α-proteobacteria in culture and in the field [ 13 26 ] . These observations suggest that a K84-producing strain may have a more serious impact on non-target organisms than does a TFX-producing strain.
The age, gender and strain variations in heart rate may reflect age, gender and strain variations in physiologic responses to transport [ 32], handling [ 3], and adaptation to repeated measurements [ 8].
With these methods they identified 24 genes showing strain variation, and about 240 genes showing some type of regional variation.
Seedlings were harvested 12 h, 1, 2 and 3 days after inoculation for the incompatible interaction between Col-0 plants and the Emwa strain of P. parasitica.
The generation of Hoxc-8 transgenic mice and the characterization of their phenotype have been published [ 1 ] . Briefly, Hoxc-8 expressing mice are generated in a binary transgenic mouse system [ 44 ] by crossing a transactivator strain (harboring a transgene in which expression of the transcriptional transactivator VP16 is under control of the Hoxc-8 promoter; [ 45 ] ) to a transresponder strain (that carries as a transgene the Hoxc-8 cDNA linked to the ICP4 immediate early gene promoter, which is silent in mice in the absence of VP16; [ 45 46 ] ). Upon combination of both transgenes, the Hoxc-8 transresponder transgene is activated, and Hoxc-8 becomes overexpressed [ 23 ] . This system also allows the generation of transgenic mice with increased gene dosage by superimposition of transgene loci to homozygosity [ 23 44 ] . For the studies reported here, we used the T239 transactivator and the IE-c8-254 transresponder strains.
