Sentence examples for progeny mass from inspiring English sources

Parental effects on progeny mass varied significantly among strains (Table 1, ANOVA 3; Figure 3).

The relative influence of maternal vs. paternal effect on progeny mass in each strain, and at each time sampling, was estimated as described by Heath et al. (1999) which is a regression of mean offspring size against the size of each of their parents.

As an internal control, we also evaluated progeny of mass crosses between resistant strain SCD-r1, which has recessive resistance (Yang et al. 2009).

Similar to the results with single-pair families (Fig.  2), results with progeny from mass crosses show h was close to 1.0 at the diagnostic concentration (0.96 for AY2 and 0.98 for QX7) (Fig. S1).

Responses of progeny from mass crosses to a series of concentrations of Cry1Ac in diet confirmed nonrecessive inheritance of resistance in AY2 and QX7 (Table  1, Figs  3 and S1).

In the bioassays evaluating resistance to Bt cotton, we tested the parent resistant strains, the susceptible strain (SCD), and the F1 progeny from mass crosses between each resistant strain and the susceptible strain using leaves collected from field-grown Bt cotton plants (GK19) that produced Cry1Ac.

BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine) incorporation into insulin-producing cells was reduced in the male progeny, yet β-cell mass was unchanged.

Uneven partition of mass among progeny cells is the only source of randomness in the basic model.

The variation in seed mass among progeny was generated in large part by our experimental treatments in the maternal generation, thus demonstrating TGP effects on progeny fitness.

An example of an early model devised to capture cell cycle regulation and unequal division of mass among progeny cells, is the model by Kimmel et al. [ 5] (Fig.  1), which considers the dynamics of the distribution of the total mass of cell RNA in a growing cell population.

In a classical breeding fashion, on the principle of recurrent mass selection and progeny testing, the genetic improvement of population through gene pool exploitation using restricted mating among selected progenies of chemotypically superior plant and high yielding genotype (variety 'CIM Arogya') was developed.
