Characterization of aster yellows in Oklahoma
Errampalli, Deena (1990-05) -
Comparison of Electrical Penetration Graph Waveforms of Squash Bug Feeding on Watermelon and Its Relatives
Maskey, Kaushal (Oklahoma State University, 2010-07-01)Cucurbit yellow vine disease is caused by the bacterium Serratia marcescens, which is transmitted by the squash bug, a serious pest of cucurbit. Watermelon is an economically important crop and serves as an alternate host ... -
Decision tool and molecular typing technique for a plant pathogen forensic application, using wheat streak mosaic virus as a model pathogen
Rogers, Stephanie Marie (2011-05)Scope and Method of Study: -
Development and characterization of molecular tools for microbial forensics
Brown, TeeCie Paige (2011-07)Scope and Method of Study: -
Development and validation of a real-time PCR assay for bioforensic detection of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato and evaluating the impacts of stressors on the effectiveness of multiple-locus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) in microbial forensics investigations
James, Mindy Michelle (2012-12)Scope and Method of Study: -
Discrimination and transcriptional response analysis of hemipteran phytopathogen vectors
Andreason, Sharon (2016-07)Insect vectors play a prominent role in the epidemiology of the pathogens they transmit, often acting as vehicles of pathogen movement into new areas. With the globalization of world economies, pathogen and vector introductions ... -
Elucidation of the molecular mechanisms of foodborne human pathogen inactivation by cold atmospheric plasma through RNA-Seq analysis
Timmons, Christopher (2016-07)Foodborne human illness caused by pathogenic bacteria is a significant health and economic burden worldwide. Efficient food decontamination methods that do not alter food quality can greatly alleviate this burden. Cold ... -
Evaluating the Suitability of Aflp Technology for Genotyping Strains Of Serratia Marcescens
Beauman, Charlene Nichelle Beauman (Oklahoma State University, 2007-12-01)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the suitability of AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) for genotyping strains of Serratia marcescens as a model plant pathogen. Twelve strains of Serratia from various ... -
Fate of salmonella introduced to cantaloupe through natural fruit cracks and flowers, alone or in the presence of the plant pathogen Erwinia tracheiphila
Gautam, Dhiraj (2012-12)Salmonella-tainted cantaloupe has been implicated in foodborne illnesses. We know little about Salmonella ecology on cantaloupe flowers and fruits, and chose to investigate whether it can enter edible tissues, and whether ... -
Filter paper dot-immunobinding assay for detection of Spiroplasma citri
Fletcher, Jacqueline (American Society for Microbiology, 1987-01)A rapid filter paper dot-immunobinding assay was adapted to detect the wall-less mollicute Spiroplasma citri in medium, plants, or insects. Filter paper spotted with sample was incubated first in dilute antiserum, then in ... -
Genetic analysis of Serratia marcescens, the causal agent of cucurbit yellow vine disease
Zhang, Quan (2004-12) -
Host resistance and diversity of Spiroplasma kunkelii as components of corn stunt disease
Carpane, Pablo Daniel (2007-12)Corn stunt is an important plant disease for which successful control using resistant maize germplasm has been unsatisfactory in the past. It is unknown at present if the pathogen Spiroplasma kunkelii has the ability to ... -
Insect transmission of Serratia marcescens, the causal agent of cucurbit yellow vine disease
Bextine, Blake Ryan (2001-12) -
New perspectives on the epidemiology of citrus stubborn disease in California orchards
Mello, Alexandre Furtado Silveira (2008-12)Scope and Method of Study: -
Pathogenicity of Four Serratia Marcescens Strains to the Pea Aphid, Acyrthosiphon Pisum, and the Squash Bug, Anasa Tristis
Heppler, Marty Leanne (Oklahoma State University, 2007-12-01)Serratia marcescens, the causal agent of cucurbit yellow vine disease (CYVD), is transmitted by the squash bug, Anasa tristis. It is unclear whether a S. marcescens strain from one niche can colonize another niche. We ... -
Phytopathogenicity, virulence factors, and in planta movement of Serratia marcescens
Luo, Guanpingsheng (2006-12)Scope and Method of Study: -
Population Dynamics of Puccinia Emaculata in Natural and Experimental Environments
Pavlu, Jessica Carrie (2015-12-01)Panicum virgutum L., commonly referred to as switchgrass, is a C4 grass native to most of North America. With its deep rooting system allowing for low nutrient and water requirements and high biomass production, switchgrass ...
