Introgressive hybridization, also known as introgression , is the flow of genetic material between divergent lineages via repeated backcrossing . In plants, this backcrossing occurs when an F 1 {\displaystyle F_{1}} generation hybrid breeds with one or both of its parental species.
Although some genera of plants hybri... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introgressive_hybridization_in_plants |
An introitus is an entrance into a canal or hollow organ . The vaginal introitus is the opening that leads to the vaginal canal. [ 1 ]

An intron is any nucleotide sequence within a gene that is not expressed or operative in the final RNA product. The word intron is derived from the term intr agenic regi on , i.e., a region inside a gene. [ 1 ] The term intron refers to both the DNA sequence within a gene and the corresponding RNA sequence in RNA trans... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intron |
Intron-mediated enhancement (IME) is the ability of an intron sequence to enhance the expression of a gene containing that intron. In particular, the intron must be present in the transcribed region of the gene for enhancement to occur, differentiating IME from the action of typical transcriptional enhancers . [ 1 ] De... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intron-mediated_enhancement |
The Intronerator is a database of alternatively spliced genes and a database of introns for Caenorhabditis elegans . [ 1 ]
A working copy of the Intronerator no longer exists as of 2003.
Equivalent functions can be performed with the U.C. Santa Cruz

Introspection is the examination of one's own conscious thoughts and feelings . [ 1 ] In psychology , the process of introspection relies on the observation of one's mental state , while in a spiritual context it may refer to the examination of one's soul . [ 2 ] Introspection is closely related to human self-reflectio... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introspection |
In quantum and theoretical chemistry , an intruder state is a particular situation arising in perturbative evaluations , where the energy of the perturbers is comparable in magnitude to the energy associated to the zero order wavefunction. In this case, a divergent behavior occurs, due to the nearly zero denominator in... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intruder_state |
