wild-type

researchers compared the wild-type strain to the engineered variant.

the wild-type phenotype was clearly observed in the control group.

we rescued the wild-type allele using homologous recombination.

the study focused on the differences between wild-type and mutant mice.

wild-type cells exhibited higher growth rates under standard conditions.

genetic analysis confirmed the presence of the wild-type sequence.

the wild-type protein showed increased stability compared to the mutant.

we used wild-type as a reference for assessing the mutation's effect.

the wild-type organism served as a baseline for our experiments.

knockout experiments allowed us to assess the role of the wild-type gene.

the researchers isolated the wild-type strain from the natural environment.
