Example sentences for: whole-plant

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

  • By including whole-plant water relations and also metabolite measurements, the use of transgenic plants, preferably of the 'gene knockout' type, will yield a greater understanding and prevent errors of interpretation that could arise from simply correlating single-gene knockouts with changes in hydraulic conductivity parameters.

  • The second level of question that requires nongenomic information is: if water-channel activity is significant for a particular AQP, what is the role of this activity in a whole-plant context.

  • The experimental strategy of monitoring heritable epialleles via their effect on visible cosuppression patterns has been pioneered in the chalcone synthase (CHS) family of petunia and Arabidopsis [ 4 10 30 ] . For comparison, CHS trans-silencing offers exquisite sensitivity, in part due to the cell autonomy of its pigmentation phenotype, whereas COP1 essentially yields a whole-plant phenotype.

  • This view, in fact, conceals a number of quite different roles for water-channel activity, involving the regulation of water flux and homeostasis at the subcellular, transcellular, tissue and whole-plant levels.
