Abscission of plant organs takes place through a highly coordinated sequence of biochemical events that occur in a discrete group of cells located in predictable positions in the plant, known as abscission zones (AZs) [ 1].
For the functional analysis of different cell populations, we selected cells with highest level of EpCAM (EpCAM+) and lowest level of EpCAM (EpCAM−) and sorted three distinct cell types (CD34−/EpCAM−, CD34+/EpCAM−, CD34−/EpCAM+) and a fourth smaller and less discrete group of cells that were CD34+/EpCAM+ (figure 4B).
In biomedical scientific investigations, expositions of findings are conceptually simplest when they comprise comparisons of discrete groups of individuals or involve discrete features or characteristics of individuals.
Gene insertions and deletions generally occur singly or as discrete groups of 2 8 genes.
It may offer more value to a discrete group of customers.
This would lead to a false perception of abuse only affecting a "discrete group of children", he added.
On the ergodic theory at infinity of an arbitrary discrete group of hyperbolic motions.
Although slope is a continuous variable, calculations of topographic traits required discrete barriers (that is, groups of cells that constituted a cohesive barrier).
The primordia are first evident in the lateral embryonic ectoderm during stage 10 (4–5 hr after egg laying (AEL)) as twenty groups of cells with distinct morphology, and in early in stage 11, they form discrete pits (Wilk et al., 1996).
A cellular automaton is in essence a little machine with groups of cells that evolve from iteration to iteration in discrete rather than continuous time – in seconds, say, each tick of the clock advances the next iteration, and then over time, behaving a bit like a transformer or a shape-shifter, the cells evolve into something, anything, everything else.
