Genome-wide Scan for Loci Affecting Iron Deficieny Chlorosis in Soybean.
(North Dakota State University, 2010)Iron deficiency results in iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) in soybean grown in the north central regions of the United States. Soybean plants display a variety of symptoms, ranging from slight yellowing of the leaves to ... -
Identification of Stem Rust Resistance Quantitative Trait Loci in Durum Wheat Populations
(North Dakota State University, 2022)Stem rust (Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici) negatively impacts durum wheat production worldwide. Resistance loci from four resistant landrace durum wheat lines were identified in biparental F¬5¬ recombinant inbred line ... -
The Genomic Alteration Landscape of Pancreatic Duct Adenocarcinoma
(North Dakota State University, 2022)By 2030, PDAC is projected to be the second leading cause of cancer-related death in the US. PDAC is a multifactorial disease driven by genomic alterations. Understanding this alteration landscape will both refine the ... -
Validation of the Pyrenophora teres f. teres PttBee1 Region and Mapping of Resistance to P. teres f. maculata in Durum
(North Dakota State University, 2021)Pyrenophora teres is a fungal pathogen of barley and other closely related grass species. Two forms of the pathogen, P. teres f. teres and P. teres f. maculata, are the causative agents of net form net blotch and spot form ... -
Bioinformatic Analysis to Identify and Understand Aberrant DNA Methylation Pattern Associated with Pancreatic Cancer
(North Dakota State University, 2021)In this study, we searched for significant hypo and hyper methylation CpG (5'-C-phosphate-G-3') probes from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) datasets. First, the relationship between hypo and hypermethylation pattern in ... -
Mapping Ur-6, a Bean Rust Resistance Gene in Common Bean
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Bean rust, caused by the fungus Uromyces appendiculatus (Pers.:Pers) Unger, is a disease of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) prevalent in the Americas and Africa. The most cost-effective countermeasure to bean rust is ... -
Comparative Analysis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles Induced Transcriptomic Responses in Arabidopsis
(North Dakota State University, 2019)The impact that zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnONP) have on plant physiological responses was evaluated by comparing gene expression changes after Arabidopsis thaliana plants were exposed to ZnONP, in comparison with ionic ... -
Variation in Core and Accessory Parts of Genome of Escherichia Coli Isolated from Soil from Riparian Areas in New York State
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Escherichia coli is commensal bacteria and is a symbiont of the digestive system of vertebrates. Due to frequent deposition of E. coli into extrahost habitats (soil, water), approximately half of its population exists as ...
