James O'Neill made his stage debut as a supernumerary in a Cincinnati, Ohio, production of The Colleen Bawn (1867).
These days with his short, neatly trimmed gray beard, he could easily be cast as a supernumerary in a Wagner production.
The production of supernumerary seam cells indicates a previously unknown role for ced-3 in cooperating with miRISC-regulated seam cell differentiation and temporal cell fate patterning.
Furthermore, mouse null mutations for Hoxb13 or Hoxc13 result in the production of supernumerary vertebrae (Godwin and Capecchi, 1998; Economides et al., 2003).
However, a single change in intercellular signaling can route a large pool of sustentacular cells into acquiring a progenitor fate, resulting in the ectopic production of supernumerary hair cells.
Non-invasive selection of developmentally competent human oocytes may increase the overall efficiency of human assisted reproduction and is regarded as crucial in countries where legal, social or religious factors restrict the production of supernumerary embryos.
Moreover, in order to avoid the production of supernumerary embryos and thus the risk of double vitrification, a limited number of oocytes should be warmed per cycle in patients who have cryopreserved oocytes because they are at risk of premature ovarian failure.
Carles et al. [ 45, 46] defined the ULTRAPETALA1 (ULT1) gene as a key negative regulator of cell accumulation in Arabidopsis shoot and floral meristems, because mutations in ULT1 caused enlargement of inflorescence and floral meristems, the production of supernumerary flowers and floral organs, and a delay in floral meristem termination.
In her youth, Channing helped her mother distribute flyers for Christian Science at the stage doors of San Francisco's theaters and was a supernumerary in San Francisco Opera productions of Aida and Tristan und Isolde.
With that project now scheduled to become a major production, no one can accuse Mayank of thinking small, and even with Supernumerary, he does not disappoint.
