Molecular Analysis of Tomato Seed Germination and Tomato Production in Almería, Spain

Creator:: Nguyen, Theresa T.
Abstract:: Tomato is considered to be one of the most important vegetables for its value as a source of nutrients and antioxidants, and as a model crop for biological research, including seed biology. In this thesis, tissue-specific gene expression and its regulation in tomato seeds were analyzed to understand the mechanisms...

Study of seed germination-associated genes using Arabidopsis enhancer-trap

Creator:: Liu, Po-Pu
Abstract:: In mature Arabidopsis seeds, the testa (seed coat) is no longer a living tissue. Thus, major sites of gene expression in imbibed seeds are the internal living tissues such as the embryo and the endosperm. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of seed germination, the gene regulation in these two tissues...

Characterization of germination of Clostridium perfringens spores from various sources

Creator:: Alnoman, Maryam M.
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is a pathogenic anaerobic bacterium able to produce more than 17 toxins, allowing C. perfringins to cause a wide variety of diseases in humans and animals. Beside toxins production, C. perfringens able to form a highly resistance spores can survive in the environments for years. These spores are...

New Insights into the Molecular Mechanism of Clostridium perfringens Spore Germination

Creator:: Banawas, Saeed S.
Abstract:: C. perfringens is a spore-forming, gram-positive, anaerobic pathogenic bacterium capable of causing a wide variety of diseases in both humans and animals. However, the two most common illnesses in humans are C. perfringens type A food poisoning (FP) and non-food-borne (NFB) gastrointestinal (GI) illnesses. Interestingly, these two major diseases are...

Clostridium perfringens spores : inactivation, germination, and formation

Creator:: Udompijitkul, Pathima
Abstract:: The enterotoxin-producing Clostridium perfringens type A isolates are responsible for the third most common foodborne illness in the United States and can also cause non-foodborne human gastrointestinal (GI) diseases such as antibiotic- associated and sporadic diarrheas. Three important factors contribute to the ability of C. perfringens to cause GI diseases,...

Role of Plc in the germination of Clostridium perfringens food poisoning isolate SM101

Creator:: Bond, Colton B.
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is the causative agent of gas gangrene and the 3rd most common cause of type A food borne disease in the United States. Critical to the pathogenicity of C. perfringens is the ability of this bacterium to produce highly resistant, metabolically dormant spores that can resume metabolic function...

Characterization of germinant receptors in Clostridium perfringens non-food-borne isolates

Creator:: Banawas, Saeed S.
Abstract:: C. perfringens is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, anaerobic pathogenic bacterium capable of causing a wide variety of diseases in both humans and animals. However, the two most common illnesses in humans are C. perfringens type A food poisoning (FP) and non-food-borne (NFB) gastrointestinal (GI) illnesses . These two major diseases are...

Seed dormancy in domesticated and wild sunflowers (Helianthus annuus L.) :types, longevity and QTL discovery

Creator:: Brunick, Robert L.
Abstract:: Elite inbred sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) lines were found to have short-lived embryo and seed covering dormancies. Seed dormancy of wild sunflowers (H. annuus, H. argophyllus and H. exilis) was found to be controlled primarily by the seed covering (seed coat and pericarp) and embryo dormancy was short-lived (four to...

Evaluation of Rubus seed characteristics: seed coat morphology, anatomy, germination requirements and dormancy breaking

Creator:: Wada, Sugae
Abstract:: Rubus seed characteristics; seed coat morphology, anatomy, germination requirements and dormancy were studied in order to define protocols for breaking seed dormancy. Morphological analysis of the seed coat (testa) using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) included 56 seed accessions of 10 subgenera preserved in the collections of the US Department of...

Molecular mechanism of germination of Clostridium perfringens spores

Creator:: Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is the causative agent of a wide variety of diseases in animals and humans. C. perfringens can produce more than 15 toxins. However, individual strains produce a subset of these toxins. Although a small percentage of C. perfringens isolates (mostly belonging to type A) produce C. perfringens enterotoxin...
