I. Frozen bovine semen samples were measured by flow cytometry
(FCM) to determine if FCM analyses could be useful for sperm quality
evaluation and prediction of bull fertility. Fluorescent dyes
utilized were acridine orange, to measure sperm nuclear chromatin
heterogeneity by quantifying susceptibility of the chromatin to
denaturation, and rhodamine...
A set of genes which show developmental and tissue
specificity are expressed late in embryo maturation during
grain formation in wheat (Triticum aestivum). Two members
of this maturation gene set (MGS) are Em and triticin, a 7S
globulin. Results presented here show that during
embryogenesis, the expression of Em mRNA...
