Question

plant molecules which are called semantides?

Answer 1

Semantides (or semantophoretic molecules) are biological macromolecules that carry phylogenetic information about evolutionary history. Semantides may be further classified into three categories: the genes themselves are known as 'primary semantides' , the mRNA transcripts 'secondary semantides', and polypeptides 'tertiary semantides'.

The terms were coined by Linus Pauling and Emile Zuckerkandl and used to contrast to episemantic and aposemantic molecules when discussing the phylogenetic evolutionary history contained in macromolecular sequences.[1] Although semantides are the major type of data used in modern phylogenetics the term itself is not commonly used.

Answer 2

Semantides are biological macromolecules that carry phylogenetic(evolutionary biology) information about evolutionary history. Semantides may be further classified into three categories:

•the genes themselves are known as 'primary semantides' ,

•the mRNA transcripts 'secondary semantides', and 

•polypeptides 'tertiary semantides'.
