Comparative genomics of Vibrio and characterizing microbial communities at a shellfish hatchery

Creator:

Delgado, Hanna

Abstract:

Vibrio bacteria are commonly found in freshwater, marine, and estuarine environments. Members of this genus can exist in commensal relationships with marine animals or as planktonic bacteria, however, they are well known for their roles as pathogens towards humans and animals. In this dissertation, I investigated aspects of host-bacteria relationships...

TonB-dependent outer-membrane proteins of Pseudomonas fluorescens : diverse and redundant roles in iron acquisition

Creator:

Hartney, Sierra L.

Abstract:

Pseudomonas is a diverse genus of Gram-negative bacteria that includes pathogens of plants, insects, and humans as well as environmental strains with no known pathogenicity. Pseudomonas fluorescens itself encompasses a heterologous group of bacteria that are prevalent in soil and on foliar and root surfaces of plants. Some strains of...

Understanding chlamydial biology through genome sequencing and comparative genomics

Creator:

Jeffrey, Brendan

Abstract:

The human pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis displays different phenotypes between serovars both in vivo and in vitro. The study of chlamydial biology has been hampered by the lack of a tractable genetic system. Here, chlamydial isolates with known phenotypes as well as strains generated though recombination were fully sequenced to address...
