The Fitness Costs and Regulatory Strategies of Cooperative Siderophore Production in Pseudomonas

Creator:: Sexton, David
Abstract:: Cooperative behaviors in bacteria are increasingly appreciated for their relevance to microbial ecology and utility as model systems for social evolution. One example is the secretion of siderophores, a structurally diverse group of compounds that chelate extracellular iron. Siderophore production is considered cooperative because the benefits can be shared with...

Regulation of hepatic pyruvate carboxylase in 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin treated C57BL/6J mice and their pair-fed controls

Creator:: Roy, Shukla
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Two new roles for the TYMV tRNA-like structure : translation enhancement and repression of minus strand synthesis

Creator:: Matsuda, Daiki
Abstract:: Some positive-strand RNA plant viruses possess a transfer RNA-like structure (TLS) at the 3'-terminus of their genomic RNAs. The closest mimicry to tRNA is exhibited by the valylatable TLSs from tymoviruses and furo-like viruses, which are able to interact with key cellular tRNA enzymes: [CTP, ATP]:tRNA nucleotidyltransferase (CCA NTase), valyl-tRNA...

Chemopreventative and chemotherapeutic properties of whole cruciferous vegetables and phytochemical components in acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma

Creator:: Shorey, Lyndsey E.
Abstract:: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) encompasses a spectrum of lymphoid progenitors that have undergone malignant transformation and clonal proliferation at various stages of differentiation. Some cases of ALL have been documented to have prenatal origins and in particular neonatal exposure to various environmental pollutants is associated with increased disease risk, including...

Characterization, epidemiology, and ecology of a virus associated with black raspberry decline

Creator:: Halgren, Anne B.
Abstract:: 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...

Biophysical properties of the turnip yellow mosaic virus explored by coat protein mutagenesis

Creator:: Powell, Joshua D.
Abstract:: Plant viruses have been instrumental in our understanding of the biophysical properties pertaining to non-enveloped icosahedral virus particles. A substantial amount of research has been performed over five decades on Turnip yellow mosaic virus (TYMV), arguably one of the most extensively studied icosahedral plant viruses and the type-member of the...

Impact of raspberry bushy dwarf virus, raspberry leaf mottle virus, and raspberry latent virus on plant growth and fruit crumbliness in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) 'Meeker'

Creator:: Quito-Avila, Diego F.
Abstract:: The United States is the third-largest producer of raspberries in the world. Washington State leads the nation in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) production. 'Meeker', the most grown red raspberry cultivar in the Pacific Northwest (Washington, Oregon and British Columbia, Canada) is highly susceptible to Raspberry crumbly fruit, a virusinduced...

Molecular genetic analysis of fruit development in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum, Mill.)

Creator:: Balbi, Virginia
Abstract:: Plant hormones regulate progression through the different phases of plant development in response to endogenous and environmental cues. Gene expression studies, as well as genetic and molecular analysis of mutants with altered hormonal responses, are two common approaches to elucidate hormone response pathways. This dissertation compares ovary and fruit development...

Evaluating the relative roles of positive and negative interactions in communities : shade, herbivory and physiological stress in the rocky intertidal zone

Creator:: Burnaford, Jennifer L.
Abstract:: Evaluating the relative influences of positive and negative interactions in shaping communities is a major topic in modern ecology. Facilitative interactions between basal species are important in habitats with intense predation pressure or severe abiotic stresses. However, few studies address the potential for positive interactions between trophic levels to influence...

Endogenous and antiviral RNA silencing pathways in Arabidopsis

Creator:: Chapman, Elisabeth J.
Abstract:: RNA silencing pathways are required for a wide variety of processes in most eucaryotes. In plants, small-interfering RNA (siRNA) arising from transposons and other repetitive sequences is associated with heterochromatin formation and maintenance. MicroRNAs and trans-acting siRNAs encoded at discrete loci function as negative regulators of gene expression by triggering...
