Flower: showy, bisexual, generally bilateral; sepals 5, uppermost (adaxial) generally long-spurred; petals generally 5, clawed, upper 2 unlike lower 3; stamens 8, in 2 whorls, unequal; ovary superior, lobes 3, chambers 3, placentas axile, style 1, >> ovary, 3-parted near tip, stigmas 3. Fruit: separating into 3 generally nut-like, 1-seeded segments (= mericarps).
Most of the earthquakes in China mainland have magnitude lower than 4.0 and generally occur in the uppermost 20 km of the crust and therefore above the Moho discontinuity; the average focal depth is found at 10 km in Southeast China, 12 km in North and Northeast China, 15 km in Northwest China and 13 km in the Tibetan Plateau.
Flower: uppermost calyx lobe generally largest; corolla tube of opening flowers truncate or with rounded sac-like extension at base, lower lip base generally swollen, closing throat; stamens 4, generally included, staminode 0; style included, straight or curved, glabrous or glandular-puberulent to near tip, stigma inconspicuous.
Leaf: sheath open +- 1/3 length; ligule 0.2--18 0.2--18 0.2--18 acummnatruncatee 1--4 mm wide, firm, folded, inrolled, uppermostostem-leacuminategenerally +- vestigial, sterile stem blade upper surface generally finely hairy.
Stem: spreading to generally erect, 0.3--2(4.5) m; uppermost bud generally conic, generally not thorn-like.
Leaf: odd-1-pinnately compound [not], petioled, deciduous; leaflets generally toothed, terminal partly fused to uppermost lateral(s) or not.
Leaf: cauline, lower opposite, upper alternate; petioles generally winged, clasping; blade pinnate-lobed, uppermost reduced, short-petioled, generally deltate, 3-lobed, with small, sharp bristles both surfaces.
Note that in this analysis phospho-site specific antibodies often recognize multiple bands, the uppermost, slowest-migrating one generally representing the most heavily phosphorylated form of the protein (see arrows) [ 25].
Spinal cord injuries in the uppermost region of the spine are generally fatal.
The upper bounding surface of the Tichitt Group generally corresponds to a wave ravinement surface, overlain by uppermost Ordovician to lower Silurian shales.
