CLAUSE, SENTENCE and PHRASE




In trying to understand what is written in an article, it is very important to know where a sentence start and where it end.

* A CLAUSE is a group of word containing a subject and a verb.

For example :

a) Five plants of each variety were inoculated with each isolate (Yamamoto et al.)

Source : Pathotype Profile of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae Isolates From The Rice Ecosystem in Java

(Indonesian Journal of Agriculture Science 5(2) 2004: 64)

The analysis of which would be :

Five plants of each variety were inoculated with each isolate

Subject Verbal

(Yamamoto et al)

b) A total of 117 isolates of Xoo, 81 from West Java, 221 from Central Java and 15 from Yogyakarta, were isolated.

Subject

were isolated


Verbal

* A SENTENCE may consist of one or more clauses.

For example :

a) Analysis of leaf P concentration was initiated by cleaning the leaves with tissue and dried

b) The variables on each variety were presented as the mean disease severity of each bacterial isolate

Source : Pathotype Profile of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae Isolates From The Rice Ecosystem in Java

(Indonesian Journal of Agriculture Science 5(2) 2004: 65)

The analysis of which would be :

Subject 1 verbal 1 Subject 2

Developed across elevation, while pathotype III only developed in

Verbal 2 Subject 3 Verbal 3

low elevation in West Java.

A PHRASE is a group of words lacking either a subject or a verb.

Some examples are:

* nominal phrase:

Other study by Sumner (1979) revealed that during 10 month observation, P concentration was decreasing about 24-32%.

CONTEXTUAL REFERENCE


In English, both general and academic, words like like WHO, WHOM, WHICH, THAT, WHOSE, WHERE, WHEN OF WHOM, OF WHICH and many more are used to refer to something that have been said before, or to what is going to be said.

Some examples are :

1. Some approaches in determining fertilizer requirements on plants which can be applied properly are soil analysis

Soil analysis is commonly used asmanagement tool on seasonal plants, such as tomato, maize, and legumes.

If the two clauses are joined together, we can have the following sentences:

a. Some approaches in determining fertilizer requirements on plants which can be applied properly are soil analysis which is commonly used asmanagement tool on seasonal plants, such as tomato, maize, and legumes.

b. Some approaches in determining fertilizer requirements on plants which can be applied properly are soil analysis that is commonly used asmanagement tool on seasonal plants, such as tomato, maize, and legumes.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Results of soil chemical analyses showed that soil N, P, and K concentrations at three locations were 0.15-0.09%, 1.68-1.02%, and 0.24-0.20%, respectively (Table 2). These values were categorized as very low till low based on criteria developed by Indonesian Center for Soil Research. Soil N, P, and K concentration at Purwakarta were






higher than those at Tasikmalaya and Bogor and it decreased with increasing soil depth. The same results were reported by Lestari (2003), the deeper soil sampling, the more decreased N, P, and K concentration was obtained. Cation exchange capacity value of the three locations were 19.10-12.95 me/ 100 g or categorized as low-moderate. Soil pH of the three locations were 4.27-4.74










which were classified as very acid till acid. Soil analysis showed that

Soil pH of Purwakarta increased with raising soil depth, while those of Tasikmalaya and Bogor decreased.

The difference in soil P availability and pH of each location caused P uptake difference by plant. This was indicated by soil P concentration of Purwakarta which was higher than that of Tasikmalaya and Bogor. Leaf P concentration of Purwakarta was much higher than that of Tasikmalaya and Bogor. The more availability of soil P, the higher nutrient uptake by plant.

Result of leaf analysis could be used to predict soil nutrient concentration if the leaf nutrient concentration had high correlation with soil nutrient. The test result showed that P concentration in leaf had significantly correlated with P concentration in soil. Correlation coefficient of leaf P concentration at 4 month leaf age with soil P concentration was 0.794, whereas correlation coefficient at 5 month leaf age with soil P concentration was 0.756. Leaf P concentration would increase with increasing soil P availability (Figure 2).

Based on linear quotient above, soil P concentration could be estimated. Increasing P concentration 0.1% at 4 month leaf age, soil P availability was required 0.54 ppm. Whereas at leaf of 5 month age, soil P availability was required 0.62 ppm.

DEFINITION and DESCRIPTION


In writing an article on agriculture, anyway in writing any article, the writer sometimes needs to define a term he is going to use throughout his article, and he might even feel it necessary to define a process by describing the course of action(s) it involves. In this chapter you are shown how to make a fine definition or description.

PART ONE: DEFINITION


Defining a part of a plant involves three things, namely:

naming it;

stating the class it belongs to; and

describing its function.

Some example are :

Example One

Plant tissue analysis is more practical to determine nutrient status on mangosteen plant than other methods. Nutrient status in plant tissue is also represent nutrient status in soil. This is based on principle that nutrient concentration in plant is a result of interaction of all factors influencing absorption of the nutrients from soil.

Source : CORRELATION TEST OF LEAF PHOSPHORUS NUTRIENT WITH MANGOSTEEN PRODUCTION1)

Indonesian Journal of Agriculture 1(2), 2008: 95

Name : Plant tissue analysis

Class : more practical

Function : to determine nutrient status on mangosteen plant than other methods.

Definition : Plant tissue analysis is more practical to determine nutrient status on mangosteen plant than other methods.

Plant tissue generally analyzed is leaf. Leaf is a place where photosynthesis process and other metabolism actively occur. Leaf is also the place for carbohydrate and mineral storage. Nutrients in leaves not only have a role in photosynthesis but also represent plant nutrient status. Leaves also consist of tissues which always available for analysis of plant nutrient status.

Indonesian Journal of Agriculture 1(2), 2008: 95

Name : Leaf

Class : a place

Function : where photosynthesis process and other metabolism actively occur.

Definition : Leaf is a place where photosynthesis process and other metabolism actively occur.

Now assume that A = name ; B = Class ; and C = function. Notice how definitions using scientific English can be formulated as A – B – C or as B – C – A

PART TWO: DESCRIPTION


Processes can be explained by defining what happens during their course of action, or by using a general statement. Pay close attention to the folloeing example.

Example:

NAME OF PROCESS

DESCRIPTION OF COURSE OF ACTION

Hyperhydricity

describes an abnormal condition morphologicially and physiologicially on herbaceous and woody plants which the described in vitro including vegetative propagation (Debergh et al.1981).

Definition a:

Hyperhydricity is the process whereby describes an abnormal condition morphologicially and physiologicially on herbaceous and woody plants which the described in vitro including vegetative propagation (Debergh et al.1981).

Definition b:

Hyperhydricity is the process by which describes an abnormal condition morphologicially and physiologicially on herbaceous and woody plants which the described in vitro including vegetative propagation (Debergh et al.1981).

General Statement:

In the process of hyperhydricity, describes an abnormal condition morphologicially and physiologicially on herbaceous and woody plants which the described in vitro including vegetative propagation (Debergh et al.1981).

(Indonesian Journal of Agriculture Science 5(1) 2004: 14)

In short:

The paragraphs usually star with a definition.

The definition is then explained in the following sentences of the paragraph.


IMPERSONAL PASSIVES


When the writer wants to bring into prominence the thing to which the action is being done, he will use the passive in which the thing is put at the beginning of the sentence.

Examine the following active and passive sentence, and note that the passive sentences contain some form of the verb to be a past participle.

Following are five example to show you the difference in form between an active and a passive form of a sentence.


ACTIVE

PASSIVE

1.

Smallholders produce most of the cocoa beans

Most of the cocoa beans are produced by smallholders

2.

The change of environmental growth (temperature and humidity) and nutrient availability in acclimatization media influenced the leaf browing

The leaf browing was most probably influenced by changing environmental growth (temperature and humidity) and nutrient availability in acclimatization media.

3.

Means of colorimetry follow this

This can be followed by means of colorimetry

4.

The yellowing leaf shows infected tree

Infected tree is showed by yellowing leaf

5.

P. noxius causing the disease

The disease is caused by P. noxius.

Corellation Test Of Leaf Phosphorus Nutrient With Mangosteen Production

(Indonesian Journal of Agriculture Science 1(2) 2008: 95)

Notice that in example 4, ‘the whole population’ is the OBJECTS in the active sentences and have became the SUBJECTS of the passive ones.

Note also that the verbal of the passives sentences comprise ‘to be’ + ‘past participle’:


ACTIVE

PASSIVE

Sentence 1

are

produced

Sentence 2

was

influenced

Sentence 3

be

followed

Sentence 4

is

showed

Sentence 5

is

Caused

Generally, passive sentences in scientific writings are characterized by the lack of a “by” phrase. This is assumed to be related to the fact that what is important to the development in science is what has been found out and not so much who found out.


PARALLEL STRUCTURE & PAIRED

CONJUNCTION


A. PARALLEL STRUCTURE

One use of a conjunction is to connect words or phrase that have the same grammatical function in a sentence. This use of conjunctions is called PARALLEL STRUCTURE. The single conjunctions used in this pattern are, among others, AND, BUT, OR, and NOR. They are also rteffered to coordinating conjunctions.

Study the following four examples on the usage of single conjunction!

1. Diseased roots were freed from sand

Diseased roots were freed from soil particles

Source : Brown Root Disease Of Casew in West Nusa Tenggara : Distribution and Its casual Organism

(Indonesian Journal of Agriculture Science 5(1) 2004: 32-36)

Analysis:

Oval: ANDDiseased roots were freed from . sand

Diseased roots were freed from soil particles

The actors are different. The activities in the two clauses are the same. The two clauses can be made into one new sentence using a parallel structure. Remember that because the activities are the same in the two clause, the activity can only be mentioned once in the new sentence. The result will be:

Diseased roots were freed from


sand and soil particles

2. Nairn et al. (1995) reported that high purity of gelling agent indicated non-toxic

Nairn et al. (1995) resulted hyperhydric tissues

Source : Effect of Preamble Vessel Closure and Gelling Agent on Reduction Of Hyperhydricity In In Vitro Culture Of Carnation

Analysis:

Oval: BUTNairn et al. (1995) reported that high purity of gelling agent indicated non-toxic

Nairn et al. (1995) resulted hyperhydric tissues

The activities are different. The actors in the two clauses are the same. The two clauses can be made into one new sentence using a parallel structure. Remember that because the actors are the same in the two clause, the actor can only be mentioned once in the new sentence. Logic shows that the conjunction is but. The result will be:

Nairn et al. (1995) reported that high purity of gelling agent indicated non-toxic but

resulted hyperhydric tissues

  1. The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in West Java

The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in Central Java

The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in Yogyakarta

Analysis:




Oval:  The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in West Java

,

Oval:  The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in Central Java

, AND

The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in Yogyakarta

The activities are different. The actors in the two clauses are the same. The two clauses can be made into one new sentence using a parallel structure. Remember that because the actors are the same in the two clause, the actor can only be mentioned once in the new sentence. The result will be:

The bacterial pathotype VIII was dominant in West Java, Central Java, and Yogyakarta.

  1. The structures of bacterial pathotypes of Xoo in Java were dominated by pathotype VIII, in low elevation rice growing areas.

The structures of bacterial pathotypes of Xoo in Java were dominated by pathotype VIII, in medium elevation rice growing areas.

Source : Pathotype Profile of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae Isolates From The Rice Ecosystem in Java

(Indonesian Journal of Agriculture Science 5(2) 2004: 68)

Analysis :

The structures of bacterial pathotypes of Xoo in In low

Oval:  Java were dominated by pathotype VIII,

OR

The structures of bacterial pathotypes of Xoo in in medium

Java were dominated by pathotype VIII,

The activities are different. The actors in the two clauses are the same. The two clauses can be made into one new sentence using a parallel structure. Remember that because the actors are the same in the two clause, the actor can only be mentioned once in the new sentence. Note that part of the activity is the same: “was seen as”. Therefore “was seen as” can only be mentioned once. Logic shows that the conjunction is or. The result will be:

The structures of bacterial pathotypes of Xoo in Java were dominated by pathotype VIII, in low or in medium elevation rice growing areas.

B. PAIRED CONJUNCTION

In section A above you are shown how single conjunctions can be used to join two or more clauses into one new sentence. In English you can find paired cojunctions carrying the same function as single ones. Some examples of paired conjunctions are:

BOTH … AND …

NOT ONLY … BUT … ALSO

Study the following examples to see how paired conjunctions are used.

1.

Concentration of BA di not show differences in all parameters in all parameters observed

Concentration of NNA di not show differences in all parameters in all parameters observed

Analysis:




Concentration of of BA di not show differences in all parameters in all

parameters observed




Concentration of of NNA di not show differences in all parameters in all

parameters observed

In this case we can use the single conjunction and.

Paired cojunctions having the same meaning as and an the positive sense are:

● Both A and B

● Not only A but also B; and

● Not only A but B as well.

Thus the new sentence can be:

1. Both concentration of BA and concentration of NNA di not show differences in all parameters in all parameters observed

2. Not only concentration of BA but alsoconcentration of NNA di not show differences in all parameters in all parameters observed.

3. Not only concentration of BA but concentration of NNA di not show differences in all parameters in all parameters observed.

UNTIL

There is something very special in the usage of the word UNTIL. In a parallel structur, UNTIL is always used in a paired conjunction. How is it used?

EXAMPLE UNTIL

Leaves from 22 mangosteen trees of each location (Bogor, Purwakarta, and Tasikmalaya) were taken every month. The leaves were taken at 2 month old and periodically every month until 10 months. The leaf samples were taken from four directions (west, east, north, and south), 3-4 leaves each of central branches of each tree, then the leaves were gathered.

1. Site-specific is a term that refers to treating the smallest possible area as a single element.

2. Rather than treating a whole field with herbicide because of a few isolated weed infestations, site-specific management calls for treatment of only those areas.A site is simply the smallest unit the farmer can manage with the tools available, whether that is a 100 square foot area or an individual plant.

The first sentence is a statement that weathering is mostly by physical means.

The second sentence is an example of the statement in sentence 1.

The relationship between these two sentences is one of exemplification.

These two sentences can be joined into a new sentence by using a single or paired conjunction showing exemplification as shown in the four ways below.

RELATIONSHIP SHOWING CONDITIONS


In daily life, one may observe symptoms in the environment, based on which he makes a diagnosis. These are all made in his head. When he wants to communicate the symtomps he observed with other people he needs to formulate the symtomps into a well-worded observation. Similarly counts for the diagnosis made. Look at the following illustration:

In terms of cellular respiration people may say that plants obtain chemical energy from fuel molecules.

In the surrounding nature, one may observe the following SYMPTOMS:

· Mangosteens, stunted in productivity

· Fruits, quality in low

Still in his mind, he can make a DIAGNOSIS:

· soil, deficient in nutrient.

Source : Corellation Test Of Leaf Phosphorus Nutrient With Mangosteen Production

( Indonesian Journal of Agricultural Science 1(2), 2008 : 95

To make other people understand what he has in mind, he needs to formulate the symtomps and diagnosis into proper words; he needs to verbalize his thoughts. And this is what he can do:

- he will formulate the symtomps into an OBSERVATION as follows:

the mangosteens are stunted in productivity and the fruits are quality in low

- he will formulate the diagnosis into a CONCLUSION as follows:

§ THIS SHOWS THAT the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ THIS INDICATES THAT the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ THIS IS AN INDICATION the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ THIS IS A SIGN THAT the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ THIS MEANS THAT the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ WE MAY CONCLUDE THAT the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ SO the soil is deficient in nutrient.

§ THEREFORE the soil is deficient in nutrient.

Note that in verbalizing his conclusion he can use the single or paired conjunctions showing explanation (see chapter 10) or consequence (see chapter 7).

In generalizing the conclision drawn based on the observation(s), he can say:

- If the mangosteens are stunted in productivity and the fruits are quality in low, the soil is deficient in nutrient.

- If the mangosteens are stunted in productivity and the fruits are quality in low, then the soil is deficient in nutrient.

- When the mangosteens are stunted in productivity and the fruits are quality in low, the soil is deficient in nutrient.

From the generalization made based on the observation and conclusion, he can make

recommendations and predictions, as shown below.

RECOMENDATION

the mangosteens are stunted in productivity and the fruits are quality in low

This shown that the soil is deficient in nutrients

This deficiency should be corrected by adding nutrients a fertilizer to the mangosteen's plants.
