Of these six cases, three did not grow in quantitative culture and the three other cases exhibited growth < 1,000 CFU.
Following advances in molecular genetic technologies and availability of DNA markers, interest has rapidly grown in identifying quantitative trait loci (QTL) that genetically control important traits for application in marker-assisted selection (MAS) programs [ 1, 2].
Although the number of ecosystem service modeling tools has grown in recent years, quantitative comparative studies of these tools have been lacking.
When grown in two environments, 96 quantitative trait loci (QTL) were identified for these nutritional traits: 4 for AO potential, 2 for carotenoid content, 3 for total chlorophyll content and 87 for individual phenolic compounds (two per compound on average).
Just before the Marrakech climate talks, China, which has the world's biggest and fastest growing market in quantitative terms, announced it would introduce quotas for electric vehicles.
A growing interest in quantitative genetics is for instance the use of genome-based data, such as high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism, in combination with a pedigree to be able to do better predictions of phenotypes (e.g., Goddard and Hayes 2009).
Additionally, transformed yeasts were grown in tryptophan-deficient liquid medium for quantitative determination of β-galactosidase activity [41].
In order to validate the microarray results, we selected 21 genes that were either induced or repressed in all treatments and measured the difference in expression of these genes in relation to M. oryzae grown in complete medium (reference sample) with quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR; see Methods for details).
In the past years, interest has grown in texture analysis of medical images that provide numerous quantitative and semi-quantitative parameters capturing the inhomogeneity of the tissues.
For quantitative measurements of motility, transformants were grown in 2 mL in 24-well microtiter plates with shaking (500 rpm).
