We propose a set of measurements of such "isotopic imprints" with accelerator mass spectrometry.
Initial imprints on a planar target sur face were given with an intensity-modulated laser beam.
She has left indestructible imprints on one-fourth of the human race in the course of a long succession of centuries.
Consequently, imprinting should not occur in oviparous taxa.
Possibly imprinting does not efficiently penetrate through many asexual generations.
In this example, the maternal allele is imprinted.
The pink and blue bars represent the acquisition of the maternal and paternal imprints, respectively.
An estimated 150 imprinted genes are as yet unidentified, and their roles not yet understood.
