Sentence examples for basis of grain from inspiring English sources

Thus, for example, it is possible on the basis of grain shape to distinguish einkorn wheat (Triticum monococcum) with single-grained spikelets (from wild Triticum boeoticum subsp. aegilopoides) from einkorn with two-grained spikelets (from wild T. boeoticum subsp. thaudar or T. urartu).

Regional metamorphic rocks are usually subdivided into schist, slate, and gneiss on the basis of grain size and foliation type.

One scheme is purely descriptive, partitioning these coarse clastic sedimentary rocks on the basis of grain size (e.g., boulder breccia versus cobble conglomerate) or composition or both (chert pebble breccia versus limestone cobble conglomerate).

Such knowledge of molecular basis of grain yield in rice can be exploited in yield improvement programs via gene pyramiding and/or the breeding approaches.

Macroscopic analysis of the studied potteries has allowed to distinguish four groups on the basis of grain size, porosity and clay paste color.

On the basis of grain size, the peridotite sample can be divided into three different areas: large, medium, and small grained.

For comparison and evaluation, hydraulic conductivities were also determined by means of in situ permeameter tests and empirically, on the basis of grain-size distribution (GSD).

On the basis of grain-size measurements of samples, each of the granulometric parameters (mean grain size μ, sorting σ, skewness S k, and kurtosis kt) is generated by the moment method (Folk 1966; Harrington 1967), as follows: mu =sum pd (1).

To understand genetic basis of large grain shape and explore the beneficial alleles for grain size improvement, we perform QTL analysis using an F2 population derived from a cross between the japonica variety Beilu 129 (BL129, wide and thick grain) and the elite indica variety Huazhan (HZ, narrow and long grain).

The genetic basis of high grain Zn in brown/polished rice is very complex and a better understanding of the genetic basis of high grain Zn in rice is essential for the systematic utilization of rice germplasm in Zn biofortification programs.
