| 11. | Other instances of quantum tunnelling-induced mutations in biology are believed to be a cause of ageing and cancer.
|
| 12. | That and another approach, inducing mutations, are time-consuming and hit-or-miss and can result in good and bad characteristics.
|
| 13. | Dodge never developed a larger program involving an extensive study of spontaneous and induced mutations or chromosome mapping.
|
| 14. | They were housed on trucks and used to irradiate seeds to prevent germination, or induce mutations for crop breeding.
|
| 15. | Mice carrying the rex mutation trans to the balancer or ENU-induced mutation have a curly coat and are discarded.
|
| 16. | For each precursor, the enzyme is evolved using induced mutations and natural selection to produce a more productive version.
|
| 17. | These guys are irradiating rice to induce mutation, and then selecting the ones with desirable qualities for further breeding.
|
| 18. | This disrupts the normal process of copying DNA and induces mutations, which explains the occurrence of cancer after exposure.
|
| 19. | Combining induced mutation with genetic engineering is a promising approach to developing crops with larger yields of food and biofuels.
|
| 20. | The arrival of a new TE in a host genome can have detrimental consequences because TE mobility may induce mutation.
