The Subcellular Targeting And In Vivo Metal Binding Characteristics Of Agnt84 Using Transgenic Tobacco And By-2 Suspension Cell Cultures, Brook Kay Nelson Dec 2005

The Subcellular Targeting And In Vivo Metal Binding Characteristics Of Agnt84 Using Transgenic Tobacco And By-2 Suspension Cell Cultures, Brook Kay Nelson

Masters Theses

AgNt84 is a nodulin protein expressed in Alnus glutinosa, an actinorhizal tree that participates with the actinomycete Frankia in symbiotic nitrogen fixation. Expression of AgNt84 mRNA is exclusively found within Zone 2 of the nodules, which is the zone that contains cells in the process of being infected by Frankia. A truncated form of the protein was found to bind Zn2+, Ni2+, Co2+, Cu2+, Cd2+, and Hg2+ in vitro. AgNt84 was predicted to be targeted extracellularly based on the presence of an N-terminal signal sequence. The purpose …

Biology Department Faculty Works

Insect outbreaks are expected to increase in frequency and intensity with projected changes in global climate through direct effects of climate change on insect populations and through disruption of community interactions. Although there is much concern about mean changes in global climate, the impact of climatic variability itself on species interactions has been little explored. Here, we compare caterpillar–parasitoid interactions across a broad gradient of climatic variability and find that the combined data in 15 geographically dispersed databases show a decrease in levels of parasitism as climatic variability increases. The dominant contribution to this pattern by relatively specialized parasitoid wasps …

Spiroplasma Leucomae Sp. Nov., Isolated In Poland From White Satin Moth (Leucoma Salicis L.) Larvae, Marietta A. Oduori, Jerzy J. Lipa, Gail E. Gasparich Oct 2005

Spiroplasma Leucomae Sp. Nov., Isolated In Poland From White Satin Moth (Leucoma Salicis L.) Larvae, Marietta A. Oduori, Jerzy J. Lipa, Gail E. Gasparich

Gail Gasparich

Spiroplasma sp. strain SMAT, isolated in Poland from white satin moth larvae, Leucoma salicis L. (Lepidoptera: Lymantriidae), was serologically distinct from other Spiroplasma species, groups or subgroups. Dark-field microscopy of the cells revealed the classical helical shape and subsequent transmission electron microscopy revealed cells surrounded by only a single cell membrane (lacking a cell wall). Growth of strain SMAT occurred in M1D medium at 30 °C. Strain SMAT catabolized both glucose and arginine, but did not hydrolyse urea. The G+C content of the DNA was 24±1 mol% as determined by melting temperature analysis. Serological analysis revealed a very weak cross-reactivity …

First Report Of Phytophthora Insolita And P. Inflata On Rhododendron In Ohio, Antonino Testa, Mikael Schilb, Jeffery S. Lehman, Gennaro Cristinzio, Pierluigi Bonello

Biology and Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

During August 2003, we conducted a statewide survey of rhododendrons to determine if Phytophthora ramorum was present in Ohio ornamental nurseries. In total, 240 samples were randomly collected in 12 nurseries throughout Ohio from rhododendrons showing foliar necrotic lesions and twig dieback symptoms.
