Microbes may induce soil water repellency through the production of aliphatic constituents as a response to desiccation

Creator:: Chilcote, Emma T.
Abstract:: Soil water repellency may be influenced by microbes whereby they produce aliphatic constituents (non-wetting materials) that coat the soil particles when they are subjected to desiccation stress.

Insights into the root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne spp.) microbiome using comparative 16S rDNA metagenomics

Creator:: Carleson, Nick
Abstract:: Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.) are one of the most important global plant pathogens. Recent innovations in molecular techniques have allowed increased study of this important pest, including the ability to investigate associated microbiomes. This study used 16S rDNA metagenomic sequencing to characterize the microbiome of Meloidogyne hapla, the northern root-knot...

Metagenomics Analysis Reveal Host-Microbe Interactions in Cervical Cancer

Creator:: Lam, Khiem C.
Abstract:: Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women worldwide. Recently it has been shown that microbiota play a role in some types of cancer. Therefore, to understand whether microbes contribute in any way to the development and progress of cervical cancer, we investigated the cervical microbiome via analysis...

Lack of Seasonality for Cercariae of Nanophyetus salmincola in the Snail Juga silicula

Creator:: Lofton, Shelby N.
Abstract:: Nanophyetus salmincola is a well-studied parasite of their definitive mammal hosts. However, the conditions that signal the time for shedding of N. salmincola cercariae from their first host, the juga snail (Juga silicula), is not fully understood. A digenetic trematode indigenous to the American Pacific Northwest, N. salmincola can be...

Engineering Oriented Protein-Labelled Surfaces

Creator:: Brown, Wesley and Mehl, Ryan
Abstract:: Current protein immobilization techniques lack defined control over protein orientation. Protein orientation is important for making biosensors and biomaterials that are sensitive and efficient and can be crucial for designing some devices such as immunosensors or direct electron transferring biocells. A new method of protein immobilization is proposed that takes...

Honey Bees (Apis mellifera) and Agricultural Chemicals: Global to Micro Perspectives

Creator:: Bernert, Ann
Abstract:: Fungicide sensitivity of honey bee associated fungi Abstract - Honey bees are exposed to a wide range of pesticides while pollinating agricultural crops. These pesticides residues are found in beeswax, nectar and pollen in the hive. Some of the pesticides found are fungicides which are not generally considered harmful to...

Exploring Chromodomain Genes in the Fungus Fusarium graminearum Through Targeted Genetic Manipulation

Creator:: Peters, Alec J.
Abstract:: DNA segments in the fungus Fusarium graminearum were identified as possible genes encoding for chromodomain proteins (CDPs), and targeted for genetic manipulation. Targeted single-gene deletion strains, as wells as GFP-S tag fusion strains, were generated from wildtype F. graminearum protoplasts, and verified strains were screened for phenotypic differences, such as...

Mono-substituted isopropylated triaryl phosphate, a major component of Firemaster 550, is anAHR agonist that exhibits AHR-independent cardiotoxicity in zebrafish

Creator:: Gerlach, Cory V.
Abstract:: Firemaster 550 (FM550) is an additive flame retardant mixture used within polyurethane foam and is increasingly found in house dust and the environment due to leaching. In this study, we sought to investigate mono-substituted isopropylated triaryl phosphate (mITP), a major component of FM550, which has been shown to cause cardiotoxicity...

Cyclic electron flow : Powering unique motility and alternative nitrogen uptake in Synechococcus WH8102 during nitrogen limited growth

Creator:: Dittrich, Jake E.
Abstract:: Global atmospheric carbon levels are continuing to rise from pre-industrial revolution levels. One of the main regulators of global atmospheric carbon levels, and thus climate, is the world's oceans. Unicellular marine cyanobacteria account for a large percent of total marine carbon fixation. We measured chlorophyll-specific ¹⁴C uptake rates (P[superscript b])...

The effect of TCDD on cytokine production during the progression of insulitis in NOD mice

Creator:: Pham, Tuan
Abstract:: 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) is a potent immunosuppressant, and suppresses many disease models including graft-versus-host (GVH), experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) and a model of type 1 diabetes in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice (1-3). In this study, we show that the inflammation of the pancreas due to insulitis is not a systemic autoimmune...

Parasitic Worms: Their Role in Medicine and Science in Modern Europe

Creator:: Aronstein, Laurie E.
Abstract:: Little is known about the role that worms played in the lives of modern Europeans. This research strove to combine a multitude of primary sources to shape a cohesive depiction of the role of parasitic worms in modern Europe 1700-1800. The Scientific Revolution played a key role in changing the...

Inhibition of α-Amylase and α-Glucosidase by Bioflavonoids

Creator:: Griffith, Anneke M. (Tucker)
Abstract:: Various flavonoid-rich plant extracts have shown efficacy in the treatment of diabetes. Although it is often assumed that dietary flavonoids exert biological antioxidant effects, it is possible that the observed effects work in carbohydrate metabolism. In this study we evaluated the effect of catechins and catechin containing extracts on α-amylase...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis Selective Adenosine Kinase Nucleoside Polymers for Inhalation Therapy

Creator:: Snow, Erika
Abstract:: Respiratory illnesses caused by both viral and bacterial infection are serious issues for global healthcare providers. With the emergence of new, drug-resistant forms of these diseases, innovative drugs and treatment therapies are needed. M tuberculosis is an infection that affects a large portion of the world’s population each year. Aerosol...

Use of Artemisinin to Treat Mycoplasma haemolama Infection in Llamas

Creator:: Puccetti, Jessica N.
Abstract:: Mycoplasma haemolamae is associated with mild to marked anemia in stressed, immune-suppressed, and debilitated animals, and may be found in low numbers in healthy animals. The continued presence of the organism, detectable by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay, may be associated with an underlying problem, such as stress or immune-suppression...

Barley genetics as a model for international collaborative research

Creator:: Osborn, Lauren A.
Abstract:: Collaboration is crucial when advancing in scientific research. One person cannot study all aspects of a system. That is why it is important for the scientific community to communicate with each other and stay updated on research being conducted in other labs around the world. In my research, I was...
