  • Structure and expression of two Populus trichocarpa homologs of the floral homeotic gene AGAMOUS

    Creator:
    Brunner, Amy Marie
    Abstract:
    Because of their small genomes, facile clonal propagation, fast growth, and susceptibility to Agrobacterium transformation, poplars (genus Populus) are widely considered model systems for the application of molecular genetics and biotechnology in forestry. However, a major concern over commercial use of genetically engineered trees is the release of transgenes into...

  • Fine structure of the virus genome in a marine filamentous brown algae, Feldmannia

    Creator:
    Lee, Amy M.
    Abstract:
    Viruses or viruslike particles of eukaryotic algae are ubiquitous in aquatic habitats, however, suprisingly little is known about them. The research presented here focused on one such virus which infects a multicellular filamentous brown alga of the genus Feldmannia. Although preliminary studies had been performed on the genome structure of...

  • Factors contributing to the formation of CC-->TT tandem mutations

    Creator:
    Skinner, Amy M.
    Abstract:
    The multistage model of carcinogenesis states that an accumulation of mutations in genes that are important for maintaining cellular homeostasis may lead to cancer. A specific type of mutation observed in particular types of cancer is the CC-->TT mutation found in the TP53 gene of patients with basal or squamous...
