Example sentences for: vegetative
How can you use “vegetative” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana many genes affecting flowering time or the transition from the vegetative to the reproductive phase have been identified and a number of them have been cloned (for recent reviews, see [ 1 2 ] ). This has resulted in a model in which meristem identity genes activate a developmental program that enables the shoot apical meristem to produce reproductive structures.
Husks are usually classified as modified photosynthetic leaves, with the assumption that they are vegetative organs on a branch that terminates in an ear [ 16, 33].
Comparison of the localization pattern between GFP-myosin II and GFP-MHCKs provides us a map of where these three MHCKs localize at different stages in the vegetative cells, as well as how these MHCKs coordinated to ensure proper regulation of myosin II thick filament.
Closer inspection of the differences between expression levels of these genes in the vegetative growth samples reveals a slight elevation in expression for non-photosynthetic samples, including all root samples, and senescence stem and senescence leaf samples (Figure 8).
Following pair-wise mating (conjugation), each exconjugant replaces its old parental MAC with a new MAC, developed from a mitotic daughter of its genotypically new zygotic nucleus (review: [ 14 ] ). The mitotic sister of the MAC precursor (anlage) is set aside as the new diploid germline MIC, which is then heterochromatically silenced; all known gene expression is from the MAC or MAC anlage [ 15 16 17 ] . Once the anlage begins differentiation, the old MAC is apoptotically destroyed [ 18 ] . The mature exconjugant resumes feeding and establishes a vegetative clone (a karyonide) propagated by binary fission, in which the MIC replicates as a typical diploid mitotic nucleus and the MAC replicates amitotically.
