Variant Annotation

Creator:: He, Jun
Abstract:: With the development of technologies in genome sequencing and variant detection, a huge number of variants are detected. To further analyze the variants, it requires an efficient tool to annotate the functional effect of variants. This project managed to develop an efficient program to annotate the functional effect of variants...

Investigation of the Patterns and Transcriptional Regulators from Gene Expression Profiles of Adult Murine Soleus and Tibialis Anterior Skeletal Muscles

Creator:: Alto, Sarah I.
Abstract:: Skeletal muscles provide several functions, including, yet not limited to, voluntary body movement and locomotion, posture and body position, and soft tissue support. Skeletal muscles also play a role in metabolism, requiring energy to facilitate contraction. Each skeletal muscle serves a different purpose despite seeming to perform the same task....

Multiple Instance Learning for Histopathological Image Classification

Creator:: Lai, Phung
Abstract:: In histopathological image analysis, image classification as well as pattern detection play a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment process since the goal is to not only differentiate cancer types but also identify cancerous manifestations. Fully supervised learning strategies tend to address these problems using manually annotated cancerous regions...

Studies on the ecological functions of the antidiabetic drugs acarbose

Creator:: Tanoeyadi, Samuel
Abstract:: Natural products (a.k.a. secondary metabolites) are produced by living organisms that are not essential for their growth, development, or reproduction, but may play a role in their survival or adaptability in nature. Many secondary metabolites isolated from plants and microbes have found use as molecular probes, drug leads, or medicine...

Using the Microbial Tree of Life to Describe Mammalian Health and Disease

Creator:: Arnold, Holly Kristin
Abstract:: The past decade of research has potentiated a revolution in our understanding of mammalian health and evolution by revealing that the gut microbiome plays a central role in mammalian physiology. Our ability to unlock this potential hinges upon the identification of specific groups of gut microbes that elicit effects on...

Insights into Novel Non-Fumigant Nematicides: Physiological and Cellular Responses of Meloidogyne Incognita and Other Plant-Parasitic Nematodes

Creator:: Wram, Catherine L.
Abstract:: Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) pose a severe threat to crop production with the economic losses due to nematode parasitism in excessive of US$ 80 billion each year. Meloidogyne incognita, a globally distributed pest with a diverse host range, contributes significantly to this economic loss. The most reliable way to manage PPN...

Seeing Genes: Multiscale Phenotyping Reveals Gene Functions in Maize Pollen

Creator:: Warman, Cedar D.
Abstract:: Plant sexual reproduction requires a broad array of molecular mechanisms to proceed successfully. Some of these mechanisms are well-studied, but our knowledge of them as a whole is fundamentally incomplete. Pollen tube growth is a key part of this process, facilitating the delivery of the sperm cells to the female...

Identification and Functional Characterization of Genes that Regulate Biomass Production, Floral Development, and Leaf Senescence in Populus Species using Genetic Engineering and Bioinformatics Tools

Creator:: Lu, Haiwei
Abstract:: This dissertation is comprised of four studies on different elements of Populus biotechnology and genomic science: 1) growth improvement by recombinant DNA (rDNA) modification of gibberellin (GA) metabolism; 2) gene editing using zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs); 3) induction of floral sterility by RNA interference (RNAi) of AGAMOUS (AG) gene homologs; and...

Secondary Metabolism in Tolypocladium : Characterization, Ecology, Evolution and Regulation

Creator:: Blount, Rheannon Rua
Abstract:: An increased understanding of secondary metabolism in fungi is important for both biological and societal reasons. The ascomycete genus, Tolypocladium, is an ideal system to explore secondary metabolism characterization, ecology, evolution and regulation. The genus produces and has the genomic potential to produce a wide array of metabolites. Paired with...

Developmental differences in Vitis vinifera berries and the impact of GLRaV3 on the transcriptome during ripening

Creator:: Vondras, Amanda M.
Abstract:: In the study of any developmental process, whether in plants, animals, or other models, it is prudent to consider the developmental position of the subjects being measured. This is generally not taken into consideration in grapevine studies despite a growing body of literature documenting that fruits within clusters develop and...
