Analysis of the functional conservation of genes in a plant single cell type: the root hair cell
Qiao, Zhenzhen (2017-12)The evolution of plant species is tightly associated with major changes in their genome such as their allopolyploidy and autopolyploidy. These paleopolyploid events and recent genome duplications have contributed to the ... -
Chromosome Organization and Segregation in Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
Bhowmik, Bijit Kumar (2017-12)The faithful propagation of genetic information from a mother to its progeny is one of the most fundamental aspects of life. Encoding the entirety of an organisms' genetic information onto chromosomes poses a unique set ... -
Differential Contributions of Outer Membrane Permeability and Active Efflux in Physiology and Drug Susceptibility of Gram-Negative Bacteria
Wolloscheck, David (2017-12-15)The increased frequency of antibiotic resistant bacterial isolates is of great concern for public health. It is currently estimated that infections caused by multidrug resistant pathogens will surpass cancer as a leading ... -
Function and degradation of two cell-cycle inhibitors for initiation of seed formation in Oryza sativa L.
Xu, Hengping (2021-06-15)The cell cycle controls cell division and proliferation of all eukaryote cells and is important to development of all multi-cellular organisms. The cell cycle of sexually reproducing organisms is founded by the zygote and ... -
GENETIC AND GENOMIC ANALYSIS OF BAHD ACYLTRANSFERASES THAT DECORATE CELL WALL COMPONENTS WITH PHENOLIC ESTERS AND ALTER PLANT BIOMASS RECALCITRANCE
Zhang, Chengcheng (2018)Next generation biofuels make use of the energy stored in plant cell walls, so called lignocellulosic biomass. However, the natural resistance of plant cell walls against deconstruction, i.e., “cell wall recalcitrance”, ... -
A Phenomenological Study of Rural, High Schools Students' Experiences in Cognitive Apprenticeship Methodology
Rech, Niccole (2018-05-11)Presently the United States has a deficit of qualified STEM applicants and is relying on foreign students to relieve the shortfall. To relieve this deficit, members of underrepresented populations, such as women and ... -
Systems analysis of grass cell wall biosynthesis for biofuel production
Lin, Fan (2017-05)Grass cell walls play an important role in plant development, pathogen defense, and are an abundant and sustainable carbon source for biofuel production. Chapter 1 introduces the great impact of cell wall composition on ...
