Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma marginale elicit different gene expression responses in cultured tick cells
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2009)The genus Anaplasma (Rickettsiales: Anaplasmataceae) includes obligate tick-transmitted intracellular organisms, Anaplasma phagocytophilum and Anaplasma marginale that multiply in both vertebrate and tick host cells. ... -
Bio-inspired design of underwater drones: Metachronal, synchronous, and hybrid stroke kinematics in paddling-based swimming at low Reynolds Numbers
(Oklahoma State University, 2020-04-24)Metachronal paddling is a form of locomotion common in pelagic crustaceans such as krill, in which a series of swimming appendages are stroked in an oscillatory pattern, each appendage with a phase lag compared to the ... -
Effects of different podcasting strategies on student achievement in a large, college level inquiry biology course
(2009-12)Scope and Method of Study: The search for instructional tools that help engage students with the concepts taught in introductory biology courses has led to the untested adoption of many technological solutions. Podcasting ... -
Genomic investigation of cnidarian toxin evolution
(2017-12)The phylum Cnidaria (jellyfish, hydras and anemones) was one of the earliest diverging animal groups and member species have simple, diffuse nervous systems. A trait unique to Cnidaria is specialized stinging cells ... -
GWAS study of color and texture on natto soybeans
(Oklahoma State University, 2021-10-09)Soybeans are an essential component to the contemporary Japanese diet. Natto is a Japanese dish made by fermenting soybeans, and the physical properties of the unprocessed soybeans will affect the natto produced. Pale ... -
Hierarchical controls on the impact of consumer stoichiometric regulation: From species traits to ecosystem level consequences
(2013-12)As natural ecosystems become increasingly changed due to habitat alteration, species loss, introduction of non-native species, and climate change, understanding the functional significance of communities to ecosystem ... -
Predicting success for college students enrolled in an online, lab-based, biology course for non-majors
(2012-12)Online education has exploded in popularity. While there is ample research on predictors of traditional college student success, little research has been done on effective methods of predicting student success in online ... -
Sorghum Genome Sequencing by Methylation Filtration
(PLos Biology, 2005-01-04)Methylation filtration makes practical the sequencing of large genomes, such as those found in sorghum, by preferentially capturing functionally relevant sequences.
