  • Transcriptomic Analyses of Crop Plants using Next-Generation Sequencing Technology

    Creator:
    Geniza, Matthew J.
    Abstract:
    Advancements in molecular biology and computer science have enabled researchers the ability to investigate the transcriptome – the quantification of an organism’s RNA transcripts in response to its environment on a system wide scale. The collective chapters of this thesis utilize high-throughput RNA sequencing, which produces hundreds of millions of...

  • Investigating Transcriptional Control of Specialized Gene Expression in Plants

    Creator:
    Fraser, Valerie N.
    Abstract:
    Specialized or secondary metabolism is a collection of pathways and small molecules that, while beneficial to an organism, are not strictly necessary for survival. Plants use secondary metabolites to, among other things, attract pollinators, defend against biotic and abiotic stressors, and form symbioses. Natural products from plants have seen an...

  • Comparative Transcriptomics in Stress-Induced Rice

    Creator:
    Al-Bader, Noor M.
    Abstract:
    Rice is an important crop that feeds almost half the world population. As climate change models predict floods, drought and extreme temperatures in rice production areas, the need to better understand the genetic basis of adaptation and tolerance to abiotic and biotic stresses is vital to sustain our food supply....

  • Investigating Protein-lipid-membrane Interactions in Plant Cells using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation

    Creator:
    Tao, Kai
    Abstract:
    The overall focus of this thesis is on the distribution of specific lipids and membrane proteins of the external and internal membranes of plant cells, in the context of the roles that those lipids and proteins may play in microbe-plant interactions. The work includes the development of several new tools,...
