Mechanisms of photoreceptor mediated responses in photomorphogenesis and phototropism
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
of elucidating the effect that domestication has had on early light responses. Our study indicates that G. max exhibits growth in darkness that is more characteristic of growth in light. This finding suggests that domestication has resulted in a crop species...
The ecological roles of amphibians and subsidies in ponds
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Freshwater ponds are often underappreciated landscape features, despite the fact they comprise a major portion of all freshwater ecosystems. Ponds support diverse food webs and species not found in other habitat types. Ponds ecosystems do not exist...
Mechanisms of the phototropic pathway
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Plants are sessile organisms and therefore are limited in their ability to gather resources. Therefore, they have evolved several mechanisms that aid them in their quest to gather light, water and nutrients. One such mechanism is phototropism, a...
The effects of metal contamination on larval white sturgeon in the upper Columbia River
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
in the upper Columbia River (UCR) face many of the same factors. White sturgeon in this system have been declining for decades due to a lack of recruitment to the population, despite evidence of spawning and early larval survival in the wild. Early life stage...
