Word: small science Part of Speech: noun Etymology: By contrast to Big Science. 1. Traditional scientific research that is conducted by individual researchers or small teams and funded by academic or scientific institutions. Labels: uncountable Example: But, particularly in this Oversight Hearing on NSF, it is important to take note of essential characteristics of small science and of the benefit of such projects to the entire scientific enterprise. Small science projects are more apt to be scrutinized at every stage by peers, as they are conceived, designed, described, reviewed, conducted, assessed, and published. Small science helps more in producing the next generation of scientists; this becomes particularly critical as we seek to attract more women and minorities into science. Example: However, when juxtaposed to other traditions, big science is unlike small science, which by definition is less ensnared in bureaucratic turf protecting, institution building, and financial and intellectual reward incentives.

Word: testcross Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From test + cross. Pronunciation: /ˈtɛstˌkɹɒs/ 1. The breeding of an individual with a phenotypically recessive individual, in order to determine the zygosity of the former by analysing proportions of offspring phenotypes. Example: The inbreds of groups 3 and 4 have a distinct difference in plant height, except for a few selections, presumably because of some difference in selection pressure at low- and high-stand densities. Group means for testcross performance showed more progress in group 4 than in group 3 because of a difference in the number of low-yielding genotypes in the two groups. Example: You could determine its genotype by performing a testcross. If the plant were homozygous (TT), a testcross would produce all tall progeny (TT × tt → all Tt); if the plant were heterozygous (Tt), half of the progeny would be tall and half would be short (Tt × tt → 1/2 Tt and 1/2 tt). When a testcross is performed, any recessive allele in the unknown genotype is expressed in the progeny, because it will be paired with a recessive allele from the homozygous recessive parent.
