By comparison, an orthogonal design would consider the relative performance of individuals of different developmental condition at the same seasonal time (i.e. controlling for phenology).
Many authors reported that individuals born in different seasons experience different early developmental conditions during pregnancy.
Nevertheless, similar results were found after different adverse developmental conditions, like malnutrition, hypoxia, hypothyroidism, intrauterine growth retardation, and antenatal glucocorticoids [ 14– 214.
In addition, synaptic ultrastructure and density have been shown to be affected after different adverse developmental conditions, like intrauterine growth retardation, malnutrition, and hypoxia [ 14– 22].
Thousands of Arabidopsis arrays, containing probes for more than twenty thousand genes, have been processed, and systematic analyses of gene expression in different organs, developmental conditions and stress responses, have been performed [ 9, 21- 23].
With an objective of characterizing functionally important genes in pigeonpea, transcriptome analysis was undertaken by sampling a large number of reads from normalized cDNA libraries prepared from different tissues, developmental conditions and physiological stages.
Moreover, protein expression depends on different cellular and developmental conditions, as well as different cell types [ 43].
In order to get wide transcriptome coverage, multiple libraries were constructed from leaves, roots, shoots, flowers, ovaries and fruits of different citrus species under different stress or developmental conditions (Table 1).
Thus, the adaptation of cell proliferation leading to different cell pool sizes in different environmental and developmental conditions could be the result of a complex and highly branched regulatory network.
Rather, each step might contribute to distinct patterns of plastid gene expression under different environmental and developmental conditions.
