  • Photosynthetic Energy Allocation Strategies of Thalassiosira pseudonana During Light Limited Growth

    Creator:
    Fisher, Nerissa L.
    Abstract:
    Photosynthetic energy allocation strategies were investigated in the marine diatom, Thalassiosira pseudonana, grown under a wide range of light limitation. Steady-state, continuous cultures were established at three light-limited growth rates. Simultaneous measurements of photosynthetic activity were made that targeted different points in photosynthetic energy flow from gross to net photosynthesis....

  • Disease models and infectious phenotypes of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis

    Creator:
    Everman, Jamie L.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of Johne's disease, a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that affects ruminant populations worldwide. The characteristic stages of the disease make diagnosis difficult, resulting in silent transmission among animals in a herd for years before proper detection of the infection. The extensive...

  • The Social Interactions of Pseudomonas aeruginosa

    Creator:
    Smith, Parker
    Abstract:
    Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a ubiquitous environmental microbe, opportunistic pathogen, and a highly social organism. P. aeruginosa utilizes a wide array of cooperative behaviors to adapt to the environmental conditions around it. These behaviors include quorum sensing (QS), a form a cell-to-cell signaling that coordinates the expression of secreted products in...
