Plant Size and Culture. Liriope muscari is the taller of the two plants, growing to 18 inches with a spread of up to 12 inches. Spicata is generally shorter, though in optimum growing conditions it may get as tall as 15 inches. The plant can spread up to 2 feet. Both plants spread and reproduce by rhizomes underground.
The unique colony holding the gene sequence of interest is identified by comparing the main plate with bacterial colonies, the nitro cellulose membrane and the X-ray film. The identified colony carrying gene sequence of interest can then be extracted from the plate and grown as a step to amplify the gene of interest. Using expression vectors in creating cDNA library makes the screening of the cDNA library much easier which is done with the help of specific antibodies.
Quick Answer. Genes, which are segments of DNA acids, are found within the nuclei of cells in living organisms. Genes add specific proteins to chromosomes, which contain the basic genetic code for life. They contain the information needed to build the cells of a living organism and pass traits to offspring. Genes correspond to certain traits, such as number of limbs, blood type, eye color and risk for certain diseases.
