Example sentences for: zygomycetes

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

  • To test the validity of word counting as a solution to the problem, we identified a set of 50 gene sequences from plants ( M. truncatula and G. max ), oomycetes ( Phytophthora ), zygomycetes ( Glomus versiforme ), and bacteria ( Sinorhizobium meliloti and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ), for which the function and origin have been characterized experimentally.

  • To increase the amount of data in this training set ( B 2 ) without biasing sample sizes, we pooled sequences from all species in the zygomycetes with all available chytridiomycete coding sequences, and compared this training set with a set from a single plant genus, Medicago ( A 2 ). We chose this option, rather than including an arbitrary subset of sequences from the ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, because zygomycetes and chytridiomycetes have diverged from their common ancestor less recently than the ascomycetes and basidiomycetes, based on 18S ribosomal RNA sequence data [ 34].

  • That is, the ascomycetes and basidiomycetes are more highly derived from the common fungal ancestor than zygomycetes and chytridiomycetes, which resemble more closely the ancestral state in modern lineages.

  • When comparing between plants and bacteria, the error rates are α = 0.052 and β = 0.084, much lower than when comparing plants ( A 2 , Medicago ) with fungi ( B 2 , zygomycetes and chytridiomycetes).

  • , either fungi ( B 2 , zygomycetes and chytridiomycetes) or stramenopiles ( B 1 ), including ESTs from P. infestans [ 16], and bacteria ( B 3 , Rhizobium , Sinorhizobium and Bradyrhizobium ). We performed pairwise comparisons with two different, taxon-specific training sets ( A and B ) to infer the origin of a transcript.
