1. One issue in using uniparental ES cells for tissue transplants is their durability and safety.

2. Plastid of most angiosperms is uniparental maternal inheritance, yet a majority of gymnosperm is uniparental paternal inheritance.

3. This unambiguously proves that the transplanted uniparental cells could produce hematopoietic stem cells.

4. Maternal inheritance:A type of uniparental inheritance in which all progeny have the genotype and phenotype of the female parent.

5. They can, however, generate "uniparental" embryonic stem cell lines. Uniparental embryos with two maternal sets of chromosomes are known as parthenogenetic.

6. In their current paper, Dr. McLaughlin and colleagues tested the functionality of uniparental ES cells in adult tissues.

7. The software is also useful for genotype analysis of trios and to show regions of potential uniparental disomy.

8. At present, three modes of inheritance are identified including maternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 7 and autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive inheritance.
