Research on the population genetics of microbial organisms requires the use of specialized analyses designed for clonal organisms to avoid violating the assumptions of traditional population genetic models. The tools necessary for performing these analyses existed as a set of unrelated software with non-overlapping capabilities and did not cover all...
The dataset here is used as a document file for presenting supplementary videos in the dissertation Tao, K. (2018). Investigating protein-lipid-membrane interactions in Plant Cells using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation (Doctoral dissertation).

The location of prune dwarf virus (PDV) and Prunus
necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV) in pollen and seed
from infected and healthy sweet cherry trees pollinated
with infected pollen was investigated. Virus-like
particles were observed in the cytoplasm of pollen
grains from PDV-infected cherry trees using transmission
electron microscopy. No particles...
Shoot apex senescence is defined as the collective progressive
and deteriorative processes which ultimately terminate the functional
life of the shoot apex. Senescence of shoot apices of Pisum sativum
L. 'Alaska' as measured by cessation of stem elongation was delayed
by removal of flowers and by treatment with gibberellin A₃...
Using spatial autocorrelation analysis, we
examined the within-population genetic structure of
Rhizopogon vinicolor and R. vesiculosus, two hypogeous
ectomycorrhizal (EM) species that are sympatric
sister taxa known to differ in their clonal structure.
We collected 121 sporocarps and 482 tuberculate EM
of both species from a 20 ha forest stand...
The objectives in this research were to assess whether Klebsiella planticola
SDF20 could survive in soil and result in ecological effects to soil foodweb
organisms and plant growth. Four experiments were conducted using soil
microcosms. Klebsiella planticola SDF20 has been genetically engineered to
produce ethanol from agricultural waste for use...
The objective of this study was to characterize an unknown agent associated with decline in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis) in Oregon. A virus was found consistently associated with decline symptoms of black raspberries and was named Black raspberry decline associated virus (BRDaV). Double stranded RNA extraction from BRDaV-infected black raspberry...
Partial reactions of photosynthesis were examined in the wild
type strain and six photosynthetic mutants (8, 11, 26, 40, 50, a') of
Scenedesmus obliquus, strain D₃. A reproducible procedure for the
isolation of active chloroplast fragments from Scenedesmus was
developed. Several chloroplast reactions were examined, as well
as two in...
