Precision will be reduced, but yield will be increased
Optimisation of a PCR reaction is often a compromise between the competing demands for precision, efficiency and yield. Although the specific effects may vary, generally, increasing the annealing temperature will increase non-specific primer binding and reduce precision. Increasing the length of the elongation phase will reduce the proportion of incomplete newly-synthesised strands and therefore increase yield. In this case, the potential effect on efficiency is unclear. Increasing the elongation phase would increase the reaction time, but the time taken to ramp down to a lower annealing temperature would be reduced.
 Which of the following is true for traditional and real time PCR?

#Unit 13. Methods in Biology
  1. Both the techniques allow detection of the product in early stages
  2. Real time PCR can detect the product in early stages as compared to traditional PCR
  3. Both systems require different primers
  4. Both techniques are end point product determination methods

Companion cells in minor veins of mature leaves. All three cell types have dense cytoplasm and abundant mitochondria, there are three types companion cells  present in column A while its characteristics given in column B;

             COLUMN A                                                             COLUMN B

A) Ordinary companion cells              i) appear well suited for taking up solutes via cytoplasmic connections numerous plasmodesmata connecting them to bundle sheath cells. Its having numerous small vacuoles, as well as poorly developed thylakoids.

 

B) Transfer cells                                    ii) have chloroplasts with well-developed thylakoids     and a cell wall with a smooth inner surface. The number of plasmodesmata connecting ordinary companion cells to surrounding cells.

C) Intermediary cells                          iii) the development of fingerlike wall in growths, particularly on the cell Walls. These wall ingrowths greatly increase the surface area of the transfer cell’s  plasma membrane, few plasmodesmata connect this type of companion cell to any of the surrounding cells except its own sieve element.
