This week, some of the challenges and complexities facing Mr. Obama's candidacy came into sharp view, with racial discord, ideological divides and cutthroat politics testing his candidacy as never before in his yearlong campaign.
The systems were designed to test the candidacy of some acid sensing residues proposed from experiment and to determine yet unknown ligand binding sites.
Reverse genetic approaches and mutant studies are underway to probe the exact functionality of these genes and to test their candidacy for the improvement of low oxygen tolerance.
To test the candidacy of the cowpea EZA1 gene for the Hls locus, a molecular marker could be developed and mapped to ensure it co-locates in the Hls locus in the Sanzi x Vita 7 population.
When multiple data sets are available, which is the case for Arabidopsis, it is possible to improve accuracy and to test the candidacy of genes within mapped QTL intervals [ 49] based on the available information.
To test their candidacy as major cell aggregation genes, we first compared sequence of the two genes between the two parental strains, YH1A and YL1C, and found that the FLO1 allele in the clumpy strain YL1C had eight fewer tandem repeats of an intragenic domain than those in the non-clumpy parent YH1A.
When it started, Clinton's poll-tested candidacy came down to telling voters, "Whatever you like, that's what I am".
Mr. Romney drew fairly even with Mr. Obama when voters were asked about managing the nation's financial situation, but his candidacy remains tested by concerns over his business background and his reluctance to release more of his tax returns.
