  2. Internal transcribed spacer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_transcribed_spacer

    In bacteria and archaea, there is a single ITS, located between the 16S and 23S rRNA genes. Conversely, there are two ITSs in eukaryotes: ITS1 is located between 18S and 5.8S rRNA genes, while ITS2 is between 5.8S and 28S (in opisthokonts, or 25S in plants) rRNA genes. ITS1 corresponds to the ITS in bacteria and archaea, while ITS2 originated ...

    The genomic sequence of the 18S rRNA is organized in a group with the 28S and 5.8S rRNA, separated and flanked by the ITS-1, ITS-2 and ETS spacer regions. [4] These regions of ribosomal DNA (rDNA) are present with several hundred copies in the active genome, clustered in nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) . [ 2 ]

  9. Controlled-release fertiliser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Controlled-release_fertiliser

    Polymer coating of fertilizer ingredients gives tablets and spikes a 'true time-release' or 'staged nutrient release' (SNR) of fertilizer nutrients. NBPT functions as an inhibitor of the enzyme urease. [4] Urease inhibitors, at levels of 0.05 weight percent, are added to urea-based fertilizers to control its conversion to ammonia. [7]
