"Ma, ma, ma, ma," Malcolm said.
The donors were from four unrelated seed families that were Ma plants grown from seeds produced in laboratory crosses for two generations after collection from the field.
Plants of the Ma population also lack complete restorers for the CMS of Sp, but there seem to be rare partial restorers, because some Ma plants crossed to CMS cytoplasm containing pollen recipients have lower than expected numbers of MS plants in their progeny.
In the three experiments performed in 2007 (F1, F2, and BC1), 2008 (BC2 and several F2 and BC1 families), and 2009 (BC3), the medians of average pollen production of the Sp and Ma plants were 75.9 and 109.6 pollen grains per sample, respectively.
But there must be some truth to it, for after the death of Mae Plant (by then Mae Rovensky) in 1956, Parke Bernet sold a two-strand string of pearls identified at that time as the ones traded for the house.
The MS BC2 (SpMa)MaMa plants with more Ma alleles in their genome compared to the BC1 produced fewer H progeny than MS BC1 plants.
A one-dimensional, heterogeneous (two-phase) fluid bed reactor model incorporating the independently derived kinetic scheme was successfully validated on a predictive basis against conversion, selectivity and steam production data collected in a full-scale MA production plant.
This summer, she has a chemical engineering internship at GE Aviation in Lynn, MA, a plant that designs and builds jet and helicopter engines for the U.S. Military.
Ma gardens, planting apples, grapefruit and tulips in his landlord's yard.
According to the fossil record, land plants diverged from green algae before 475 million years ago (Ma; first land plant fossil) and led to the major clades found today [ 5, 6].
Ancient Chinese physicians employed ma huang, a plant containing ephedrine, for a variety of purposes.
