CW were then quantified on needles (same material used for transcriptome analysis, sampled from the last growth unit) harvested on 7 July 2008, 22 September 2008 (first growing season), 8 April 2009, 27 July 2009 and 21 September 2009 (second growing season).
The first means ensuring everyone has enough to eat; the second, growing it yourself.
Any tree, of course, grows best with timely watering throughout its first, perhaps its second, growing season.
The patients were part of a second, growing wave of serious infections from the same tainted drug that caused a nationwide meningitis outbreak.
Red or black oaks have bristle-tipped leaves, hairy-lined acorn shells, and bitter fruits, which mature at the end of the second growing season.
Not until the second growing season, however, does the nucleus of one of the male cells in the tube unite with the oosphere nucleus.
In biennial plants the lower part of the stem persists after the first growing season and bears buds from which an erect stem arises during the second growing season.
In particular, he says, excessive inequality can have two perverse consequences: first, the very wealthy lobby for favors, contracts and bailouts that distort markets; and, second, growing inequality undermines the ability of the poorest to invest in their own education.
A number of angiosperms are biennial in the temperate zone: they grow vegetatively for one season, but their flowering and seed production are delayed until a second growing season, after which the plants die (e.g., beets, carrots).
After the second growing season 50 or 53% were colonized, respectively.
Following the second growing season, productivity and species composition were determined for exclosures and cages.
