  2. Plant growth analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_growth_analysis

    Plant growth analysis refers to a set of concepts and equations by which changes in size of plants over time can be summarised and dissected in component variables. It is often applied in the analysis of growth of individual plants, but can also be used in a situation where crop growth is followed over time.

  3. Monod equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monod_equation

    μ is the growth rate of a considered microorganism, μ max is the maximum growth rate of this microorganism, [S] is the concentration of the limiting substrate S for growth, K s is the "half-velocity constant"—the value of [S] when μ/μ max = 0.5. μ max and K s are empirical (experimental) coefficients to the Monod equation. They will ...

  4. GC-content - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GC-content

    In molecular biology and genetics, GC-content (or guanine-cytosine content) is the percentage of nitrogenous bases in a DNA or RNA molecule that are either guanine (G) or cytosine (C). [1] This measure indicates the proportion of G and C bases out of an implied four total bases, also including adenine and thymine in DNA and adenine and uracil ...

  5. Murashige and Skoog medium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murashige_and_Skoog_medium

    Murashige and Skoog medium (or MSO or MS0 (MS-zero)) is the most popular plant growth medium used in the laboratories worldwide for cultivation of plant cell culture on agar. MS0 was invented by plant scientists Toshio Murashige and Folke K. Skoog in 1962 during Murashige's search for a new plant growth regulator .

  6. Cot analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cot_analysis

    The C 0 t value is the product of C 0 (the initial concentration of DNA), t (time in seconds), and a constant that depends on the concentration of cations in the buffer. Repetitive DNA will renature at low C 0 t values, while complex and unique DNA sequences will renature at high C 0 t values. The fast renaturation of the repetitive DNA is ...

  7. Bioconcentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioconcentration

    Bioconcentration factor can also be expressed as the ratio of the concentration of a chemical in an organism to the concentration of the chemical in the surrounding environment. The BCF is a measure of the extent of chemical sharing between an organism and the surrounding environment. [5]

  8. Hill equation (biochemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_equation_(biochemistry)

    The horizontal axis is the concentration of the ligand. As the Hill coefficient is increased, the saturation curve becomes steeper. In biochemistry and pharmacology, the Hill equation refers to two closely related equations that reflect the binding of ligands to macromolecules, as a function of the ligand concentration.

  9. Liebig's law of the minimum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebig's_law_of_the_minimum

    Liebig's law has been extended to biological populations (and is commonly used in ecosystem modelling).For example, the growth of an organism such as a plant may be dependent on a number of different factors, such as sunlight or mineral nutrients (e.g., nitrate or phosphate).
