The alloploid model in Avena
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
DNA uptake by bacteria and eucaryotic cells
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
Repertoire of genetic control of gene expression in procaryotes
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
Writing 18 years ago, DR. STADLER pointed out that because of limitations in the knowledge and definition of the gene, questions about undetermined properties of the gene--the nature of the unit of reproduction, the unit ...
Ti plasmids of agrobacterium : potentials for genetic engineering : plasmids, genetic engineering, crown gall, tumors
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1979)
Crown gall disease of dicotylendenous plants, induced by Agrobacterium tumefaciens, provides a unique system for the study of pathogen-host interplay at the molecular level. By means of large Ti plasmids borne by virulent ...
Some cytogenetic aaspects of the mechanism of recombination of the genome in diploid plant species
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
The recA protein of E. coli : regulation and function in recombination and repair : UV induction, autoregulatory model, DNA binding protein, DNA renaturation, strand assimilation
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1979)
functions include UV mutagenesis, W- reactivation of damaged phage DNA, prophage induction and cell filamentation. In this paper we summarize experiments which have elucidated regulatory and functional aspects of the recA gene product. Biochemical...
Neurospora as an object for cytogenetic research : chromosome rearrangements, crossing over, duplications, meiosis, meiotic drive, recombination
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1979)
Several lines of research have been stimulated because the direct results of Mendelian segregation are apparent in Neurospora asci. Spore killer genes provide an example. When across is heterozygous for Spore killer, four ...
Genetic transformation as a tool in the studies of DNA replication and recombination
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1975)
Mechanism of chromosome replication by the use of transformation and genetic recombination are reviewed in Bacillus subtilis. The order of gene replication can be determined by marker frequency analysis during exponential ...
Molecular and developmental cytogenetics of gene multiplicity in maize : maize, cytogenetics, ribosomal RNA, endosperm, gametes
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1983)
Gene multiplicity alterations may be an important feature of maize developmental biology. A developmentally-phased change in DNA level has been found to be a striking feature of maize endosperm growth. I n the central ...
Mutagenic mechanisms in bacteriophage T4 : (bacteriophage T4, mutagenic mechanisms, heat mutagenesis)
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1976)
Mutagenic mechanisms can be divided into two categories, those dependent upon specific base mispairing (generating base pair substitutions and frameshift mutations) and those dependent upon misrepair (perhaps as a result ...
The informational and nutritional requirements of celluar organelles
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1971)
Evolution and genetic significance of mitochondria
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1972)
Mitochondria are constituted of two different membrane systems which may well have quite different origins in replication and evolution. It is hypothesized that the outer membrane is entirely derived from cytosol constituents ...
Analysis of gene number and development in polygenic systems : (polygenes, variation, selection, pattern)
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1977)
The assumption that quantitative variation is produced by a large number of genes is re-examined. In fact, one finds that often only a small number of loci are involved. This, therefore, opens to careful study the developmental ...
The genetics, evolution and expression of antibody molecules
(University of Missouri, Agricultural Experiment Station, 1973)
The vertebrate immune system shares certain general properties with other complex systems in higher organisms and, accordingly, may serve as an ideal model for studying various aspects of differentiation and evolution in ...
