  • Phylogenetic Studies in Tenebrionidae (Coleoptera) and Related Families

    Creator:
    Kanda, Kojun
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, I present the results from three studies: (1) a phylogeny of Tenebrionoidea (Coleoptera) inferred from a seven-gene dataset derived from PCR and Sanger sequencing; (2) a phylogeny of Tenebrionidae, the largest family in Tenebrionoidea, inferred from a four-gene dataset also derived from PCR and Sanger sequencing; (3)...

  • Cellular Recognition, Division, and Proliferation in the Cnidarian-Dinoflagellate Symbiosis

    Creator:
    Tivey, Trevor R.
    Abstract:
    Cnidarians and their symbiotic dinoflagellates form a productive mutualism that shapes marine environments. In this symbiosis, dinoflagellate species from the family Symbiodiniacea reside within cnidarian host gastrodermal cells and provide the host with photosynthetically fixed carbon in exchange for host metabolites. This nutritional exchange allows both partners to thrive in...

  • The role of innate immunity in cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis

    Creator:
    Poole, Angela Z.
    Abstract:
    Cnidarians, such as corals and sea anemones serve as hosts to a variety of organisms including symbiotic dinoflagellates, bacteria, virus, and apicomplexans. As corals are vital to the health and productivity of the reef ecosystem it is important to understand how these organisms interact with each component of the holobiont....
