Examples of Using ASCI in a Sentence

• The sexual stage form fruiting bodies called perithecia, in which ascospores are formed in a sac known as an ascus (plural asci).
• The Pentium Pro was also used in supercomputers, most notably ASCI Red, which used two Pentium Pro CPUs on each computing node and was the first computer to reach over one teraFLOPS in 1996, holding the number one spot in the TOP500 list from 1997 to 2000.
• It consists of very tightly interwoven hyphae and millions of embedded asci, each of which typically contains four to eight ascospores.
• Variants of OSF/1 AD are on several such systems, including the Intel Paragon XP/S and ASCI Red, Convex Exemplar SPP-1200 (as SPP-UX) and the Hitachi SR2201 (as HI-UX MPP).
• The hymenium is the tissue layer on the hymenophore of a fungal fruiting body where the cells develop into basidia or asci, which produce spores.
• The species of Sordaria are similar morphologically, producing black perithecia containing asci with eight dark ascospores in a linear arrangement.
• Phomatospora wistariae is hyaline in appearance and resembles a membrane, it is sessile, it does not have paraphyses, its asci are oblong, and its sporidia are biseriate and have an oblong-elliptical shape.
• Peridium membranaceous, asci cylindrical, clavate or subspherical, with a persistent or evanescent wall, usually with a thickened and non-amyloid annular structure at the apex, usually 8-spored.
• As early as in 1976, some AGESCI groups and individual members, along with some ASCI and AGI leaders who had disagreed with the merger (and, above all, opposed the principle of coeducation) and had refused to join AGESCI, formed the 20,000-strong Associazione Italiana Guide e Scouts d'Europa Cattolici (AIGSEC/FSE).
• Kerygma competes each year as a small ensemble at ASCI musicale and has participated at local venues under Elizabeth Van Gelder (1994–1999), Ellen Beery (1999–2004), Ruth Goodman (2004–2005) and Nancy Gilmore (2005–2011).
• Some ASCI and AGI leaders, who had disagreed with the merger (and, above all, opposed the principle of coeducation) and had refused to join AGESCI, formed the Associazione Italiana Guide e Scouts d'Europa Cattolici (AIGSEC or Scouts d'Europa), along with disgruntled members of the early AGESCI, in 1976.
• purpureus is a cleistothecium with a two-layered wall, enclosing round, evanescent eight-spored asci, lifted above the substrate on a multihyphal stalk.
• These asci are therefore referred to as bitunicate (superficially, two layers) or fissitunicate (referring to spore release).
• A pseudothecium has small dark hairs around its opening, and contains pseudoparaphyses along with asci.
• The hymenium lacks paraphyses and the asci lack croziers, which makes the genus distinctive among other earth-tongues.
• Pezizomycetes are apothecial fungi, meaning that their spore-producing/releasing bodies (ascoma) are typically disk-like, bearing on their upper surfaces a layer of cylindrical spore-producing cells called asci, from which the spores are forcibly discharged.
• The sporocarp (also known as fruiting body, fruit body or fruitbody) of fungi is a multicellular structure on which spore-producing structures, such as basidia or asci, are borne.
• Within the class Leotiomycetes, Leotia species produce large fruiting bodies; their long-stalked apothecia bear a fertile layer of asci that covers the upper surface of a mushroom-like cap.
• The apothecium is an open, cuplike, or saucer-shaped sexual fungal fruiting body (ascocarp) containing asci.
• More specifically, paraphyses are sterile filamentous hyphal end cells composing part of the hymenium of Ascomycota and Basidiomycota interspersed among either the asci or basidia respectively, and not sufficiently differentiated to be called cystidia, which are specialized, swollen, often protruding cells.
• No further contributions to the genus were made until 1837 when the publication of Corda described its characteristic asci in his work, Icones Fungorum Hucusque Cognitorum.
• In 1996, PGI developed x86 compilers for the ASCI Red Supercomputer at Sandia National Laboratories, the first computer system to sustain teraflop performance.
• capsellae is an ascomycete, meaning it produces ascospores housed in asci as means of sexual reproduction.
