The following berry analysis parameters enabled characterisation of specific physiological stages of development: fresh weight, sugar accumulation (total soluble solids) and malic acid accumulation.
Determining the mechanisms of calcium auxotrophy suppression in these cases will require a thorough characterisation of the physiological roles of NhaA and TrkB and is beyond the scope of this work.
Combined with cardiovascular imaging, CFD simulation enables detailed characterisation of complex physiological pressure and flow fields and the computation of metrics which cannot be directly measured, for example, wall shear stress.
The recent investigations contribute to the further characterisation of the physiological and metabolic phenotype of these hearts on the one hand as well as to the estimation of the borders of detection of alterations in the uptake of radiopharmaceuticals in normal tissues and under pathophysiological conditions on the other hand.
Furthermore, these characterisations of the physiological and metabolic responses to match-play have been invariably limited to lower ranked professional players 5 11 and/or in practice match-play lasting ≤120 min.
Accounting for social structure and dominance status within experimental designs is likely to offer significant improvements in the consistency of physiological characterisation and thus mechanistic interpretation.
Broussolle, V. et al. Molecular and physiological characterisation of spore germination in Clostridium botulinum and C. sporogenes.
Physiological characterisation of the filamentous fungus Penicillium chrysogenum, using 13C-labelling analysis, revealed that an unrecognised pathway was involved in formation of cytosolic acetyl-CoA.
The halA− sltA− elevated calcium requirement or 'calcium auxotrophy' of A. nidulans is a valuable new tool for investigating calcium signalling and homeostasis, enabling the selection and physiological characterisation of mutations in calcium-related genes.
However, further myxobacterial genomes are becoming available at an accelerating rate, and it is possible that in the near future, physiological characterisation of the new genome host organisms will enable correlations with genomic features.
