  2. Taxonomic rank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taxonomic_rank

    In biology, taxonomic rank (which some authors prefer to call nomenclatural rank [1] because ranking is part of nomenclature rather than taxonomy proper, according to some definitions of these terms) is the relative or absolute level of a group of organisms (a taxon) in a hierarchy that reflects evolutionary

  3. R gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R_gene

    The R protein may detect a Pathogen-Associated Molecular Pattern or PAMP (alternatively called MAMP for microbe-associated molecular pattern). The R protein encodes enzyme that degrades a toxin produced by a pathogen. Once the R protein has detected the presence of a pathogen, the plant can mount a defence against the pathogen.

  4. Taxonomy (biology) - Wikipedia

    In biology, taxonomy (from Ancient Greek τάξις () 'arrangement' and -νομία () 'method') is the scientific study of naming, defining (circumscribing) and classifying groups of biological organisms based on shared characteristics.

  5. SAR supergroup - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAR_supergroup

    SAR or Harosa is a highly diverse clade of eukaryotes, often considered a supergroup, [2] that includes stramenopiles (heterokonts), alveolates, and rhizarians. [3] [4] [5] It is a node-based taxon, including all descendants of the three groups' last common ancestor, [6] and comprises most of the now-rejected Chromalveolata. [2]

  6. Protein tertiary structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_tertiary_structure

    This is caused by R-group interactions such as ionic and hydrogen bonds, disulphide bridges, and hydrophobic & hydrophilic interactions. Protein tertiary structure is the three-dimensional shape of a protein. The tertiary structure will have a single polypeptide chain "backbone" with one or more protein secondary structures, the protein domains.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_R_(mtDNA)

    Haplogroup R is a widely distributed human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup. Haplogroup R is associated with the peopling of Eurasia after about 70,000 years ago, and is distributed in modern populations throughout the world outside of sub-Saharan Africa .
