The current climate crisis, increasing habitat fragmentation, deforestation, the number of extreme weather events, contagious diseases, and more are major environmental stressors that threaten the survival of every species ...
Adaptations enabling PBP1a-driven polar growth in Agrobacterium tumefaciens
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 5/1/2024] For bacteria with complex life cycles involving several environmental niches, adaptability is key. The plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a master of adaptability as it lives two distinct ...
B2 or not B2 : loss of ephrin-B2 in endothelial cells during development, homeostasis, and regeneration
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
that conditional deletion of ephrin-B2 (ephrin-B2CKO) during development prior to e10.5 leads to disruptions in vascular formation resulting in embryo death within 12-24 hours of tamoxifen injection. Our larger goal was to ask to what extent ECs interact...
