Background: Triticum monococcum (2n) is a close ancestor of T. urartu, the A-genome progenitor of cultivated hexaploid wheat, and is therefore a useful model for the study of components regulating photomorphogenesis in diploid wheat. In order to develop genetic and genomic resources for such a study, we constructed genome-wide transcriptomes...
We report the sequence and characterization of the genomes of 21 isolates of Rhodococcus. Next generation sequencing technology was used to generate genome sequences. The reads for each genome were de novo assembled. The contigs were re-ordered, using the genome sequence of A44a as a reference. The program, Prokka, was...
We re-sequenced the Pseudoperonospora cubensis transcriptome to provide the first extensive transcriptome-wide survey of alternative splicing in an obligate biotrophic pathogen during host infection. The libraries from biological replicates of cucumber leaves infected with Ps. cubensis for 2, 3, 4, and 8 days post inoculation (dpi) were re-sequenced using 100-mer...
Long-distance exchange has long been recognized as a critical factor in the history of the ancient Near East, yet few studies have utilized robust analytical methods to trace the production and movement of specific goods at the interregional scale. Mundane goods such as pottery are particularly under-studied, and owing to...
The data represent 48-state USA weather and climate data (both site and gridded), biological phenology (developmental) models, combined with photoperiod response (diapause inducing sensitivity to short daylengths). The example data sets are specific to a single insect biological control organism (a leaf beetle introduced to control purple loosestrife, an invasive...
36 strains of Burkholderia spp. isolated from sugarcane were evaluated for biological control of leaf and pseudobulb necrosis of orchid caused by B. gladioli. 29 of the sugarcane strains suppressed the disease in greenhouse assays. We generated a draft genomic sequence of one suppressive strain, B. seminalis TC3.4.2R3. The genome...
Here, we describe and demonstrate a geographic information systems-based lithic morphometric research (GLiMR) software approach. GLiMR accurately and rapidly handles a sequence of ArcGIS procedures to extract geometric morphometric data from 2D and 3D scan files of lithic artifacts. GLiMR generates three main types of geometric properties: shape data, topographic...
This dataset includes comma-separated text files with tabular data from survey responses and the R code used to visualize them. The following abstract describes the research study. See the README file for a more thorough description of the data. Purpose: The purpose of this case study is to demonstrate how...
