In addition, because of the high osmotic pressure generated bysucrose, the perivitelline spaces of mouse oocytes were enlarged.From theCambridge English Corpus
However, rice is able to convertsucroseto starch at high temperature and humidity.From theCambridge English Corpus
Each tube contained a strip of filter paper and a cotton pad soaked in 40%sucrose.From theCambridge English Corpus
On the loss of water,sucroseand certain oligosaccharides or galactosyl cyclitols form high-viscosity, amorphous, super-saturated solutions.From theCambridge English Corpus
Accumulation ofsucroseand dehydrins occurs both during development and upon re-establishment of desiccation tolerance in germinated seeds.From theCambridge English Corpus
Sucrosemetabolism related to growth and ripening in sugarcane internodes.From theCambridge English Corpus
Thesucrose:oligosaccharide ratio continuously decreased reaching 0.13 in mature seeds.From theCambridge English Corpus
Thus, there is substantial evidence thatsucroseplays a role in dehydration tolerance of seeds.From theCambridge English Corpus
Planteose contents declined during priming in seeds of both species, whilesucrosecontents increased or remained constant.From theCambridge English Corpus
I stopped thesucrosefor 5 days, then resumed it for 4 days (60 ml/ day).From theCambridge English Corpus
Plants contained little starch but large quantities ofsucrosewere found, mainly located in the trunk.From theCambridge English Corpus
In the heat-soluble preparations, drying rates were intermediate between soluble proteins andsucrose, with rates inversely related to sugar concentration.From theCambridge English Corpus
Mosquitoes were found not to respond even to the aqueous component ofsucrosesyrup, and subsequent tests employed crumpled dry paper as controls.From theCambridge English Corpus
In animals a highsucrosediet causes a reduction in the life expectancy, increase in weight, elevation of triglycerides and an impaired glucose tolerance test.From theCambridge English Corpus
The accumulation of soluble carbohydrates such assucroseand oligosaccharides is commonly associated with the desiccation-tolerant state in orthodox seeds.From theCambridge English Corpus
