Introducing and validating a high-throughput bud break sensor

Creator:

Kleinknecht, George J.

Abstract:

Bud break is a key adaptive trait that can help us understand how plants respond to a changing climate from the molecular to landscape scale. Despite this, acquisition of bud break data is currently constrained by cost, scale, and a lack of information at the plant scale on the environmental...

Growth, morphology, and in vitro development of transgenic poplars with RNAi-inhibited PtDDM1-1/2 gene expression

Creator:

Zhu, Ruoqing

Abstract:

Epigenetic mechanisms are important for control of plant development, and may play a particularly important role in trees given their long life cycles and distinctive and stable tissue types. To help understand the role of epigenetics in tree development, we produced transgenic poplars with reduced activity of the DDM1 genes,...

Transcriptomic analysis using high-throughput sequencing and DNA microarrays

Creator:

Fox, Samuel E.

Abstract:

Transcriptomics and gene expression profiling enables the elucidation of the genetic response of an organism to various environmental cues. Transcriptomics enables the deciphering of differences between two closely related organisms to the same environment and in contrast, enables the elucidation of genetic responses of the same organism to different environmental...

Dissertation
Cellular events conditioned by the Np gene of Pisum sativum L. in response to reduced UV light, weevil oviposition, and bruchins

Creator:

Ketter, Ann P.

Abstract:

In Pisum, the Np gene conditions two mitotic responses - to bruchid weevil oviposition on the pod and to reduced UV light. Oviposition by the weevil results in tumorous or neoplastic growth under the egg. Biochemically active compounds, called bruchins, were isolated from two bruchid insects (Doss et al, 2000)....
