Sentence examples for in selected lines from inspiring English sources

Thus, RNAi technology could be effectively used to knockout candidate genes underlying QTLs in selected lines to validate their function.

This required sampling at only certain stations in selected lines and limited the sampling time in the subway stations.

The correlations between early and late traits are generally lower in selected lines, such as the current study, than in unselected lines [ 33].

It is not clear what the likely correlated responses in males would be, but it might be the case that male reproductive performance paralleled the pattern of female egg production, showing a relative decrease at early ages in selected lines.

However, such developmental processes could not explain the increase in ovariole number in selected lines relative to control lines, because the difference in ovariole number persisted even in control lines two generations removed from the selective regime; and thus egg retention and accompanying accelerated maturation due to lack of oviposition substrates did not occur.

Based on a comparison of progeny from unstarved mothers, there were a greater number of ovarioles in selected line females than in control line females.

With the identification of 11 very early markers, it was possible to predict the regeneration potential of proliferating callus lines, which opens up prospects for their application in selecting lines of interest for large-scale propagation.

We found a sex difference, higher 2D∶4D in females than males, statistically significant in the selected lines only, and an effect of selective breeding, higher 2D∶4D ratios in HR lines, in both sexes.

Therefore it seems very likely that differences in Glo1 expression in the selected lines were due to the duplication; a combination of genetic drift and inbreeding might have caused this apparently surprising result.

This study is, to our knowledge, the first to investigate the genetics of complex traits using a combined QTL mapping approach and high-throughput-based selective sweep mapping in divergently selected lines.

G matrices were estimated with high confidence in both selected lines, and both are similar in magnitudes and error ranges (Additional file 4: Table S4).
