Addressing ALS: Corroborating the Methodology of Studying the P2X7R Complex

Creator:

Veytsman, Edward Y.

Abstract:

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons in the motor cortex and spinal cord. Recent evidence suggests that the purine receptor P2X7 (P2X7R) plays a central role in the pathology of ALS. Previous research indicates that P2X7R activation by oxidatively modified heat shock protein 90...

Bacterial seed endophytes of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) and their potential to confer drought tolerance

Creator:

Hatwal, Shikhar

Abstract:

Bacterial endophytes have the potential to confer benefits to Douglas-fir ( Pseudotsuga menziesii ), for instance drought tolerance. Bacterial endophytes originating from seeds are especially important. This is because seed endophytes are more likely to be the first endophytes to get established within the young host plant. The goals of...

Geographic variation in the seed mycobiome of Coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii)

Creator:

Bergmann, Gillian E.

Abstract:

Seeds are an essential component of plant life histories, and seed endophytes have the potential to influence germination, seedling establishment and development. That said, seed endophytes are a relatively new area of study, both in the factors that influence which taxa are present and how these microbes alter plant function....
