Pureline selection is a method used in plant breeding where plants are chosen from a single self-pollinated variety to create a population that is genetically uniform. It was first introduced by Johannsen (1903) while working with beans (Phaseolus vulgaris). The method based on assumption that variation seen in self-pollinated crops is mostly due to environment … Read more
Post-transcriptional modification is a set of biological processes common to most eukaryotic cells by which an primary RNA transcript is chemically altered following transcription from a gene to produce a mature, functional RNA molecule that can then leave the nucleus and perform any of a variety of different functions in the cell.
What is Analytical balance? What is Triple beam balance? Difference Between Analytical Balance Vs Triple Beam Balance 1. Precision – Analytical balance gives very high precision (up to 0.0001 g) while triple beam balance only measure till 0.01 g, so less sensitive comparatively. 2. Power Source – Analytical balance mostly works on electric / electronic … Read more
