  4. Stramenopile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stramenopile

    The stramenopiles, also called heterokonts, are a clade of organisms distinguished by the presence of stiff tripartite external hairs. In most species, the hairs are attached to flagella, in some they are attached to other areas of the cellular surface, and in some they have been secondarily lost (in which case relatedness to stramenopile ancestors is evident from other shared cytological ...

    Azolla (mosquito fern, water fern, fairy moss) is a genus of seven species of aquatic ferns in the family Salviniaceae. They are extremely reduced in form and specialized, looking nothing like other typical ferns but more resembling the form of some mosses or even duckweeds .

  6. Polypore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypore

    [6] [7] [8] The orders containing most polypore species are the Polyporales (genera such as Fomes, Polyporus and Trametes) and Hymenochaetales (e.g. Oxyporus, Phellinus and Trichaptum). Economically perhaps the most significant polypores Heterobasidion spp., pests of conifer plantations, belong to the Russulales . [ 9 ]

  7. Regulatory sequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulatory_sequence

    The loop is stabilized by one architectural protein anchored to the enhancer and one anchored to the promoter and these proteins are joined to form a dimer (red zigzags). Specific regulatory transcription factors bind to DNA sequence motifs on the enhancer. General transcription factors bind to the promoter.

  8. Polypodiales - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polypodiales

    Polypodiales are unique in bearing sporangia with a vertical annulus interrupted by the stalk and stomium. [2] These sporangial characters were used by Johann Jakob Bernhardi to define a group of ferns he called the "Cathetogyratae"; [3] the Pteridophyte Phylogeny Group has suggested reviving this name as the informal term cathetogyrates, to replace the ambiguously circumscribed term "polypods ...

  9. Mollusc shell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mollusc_shell

    In those shelled molluscs that have indeterminate growth, the shell grows steadily over the lifetime of the mollusc by the addition of calcium carbonate to the leading edge or opening. Thus the shell gradually becomes longer and wider, in an increasing spiral shape, to better accommodate the growing animal inside.
