Uncovering the genetic basis of seed amino acid composition in arabidopsis using a multi-omics integrative approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
belongs to the Glutamate Family (Arginine, Proline, Glutamine, and Glutamate). Although Glutamine is not an EAA, it is a major nitrogencontaining amino acid that is transported to the seed; thus it's regulatory control is of particular interest. I harness...
Methodological approaches for sound training in underepresented learners: a case study with american toads (Anaxyrus americanus)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
efforts to better understand the minds of animals have been flourishing, with methodological breakthroughs and a remarkable increase in the number of publications dealing with a wide variety of non-model species. The growing interest in species...
The power of synteny : deep evolutionary insights from comparative genomics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
tree-species tree incongruence. In Chapter III, as published in Abrahams et al., 2020, I utilize a microsynteny network and phylogenetic inference to investigate the origin and diversification of the MAM/IPMS gene family. I uncover unique MAM-like genes...
Coupling, membrane conductance, and ion channel mRNA profiles in the establishment and maintenance of network activity in the crustacean cardiac ganglion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
necessary to respond to altered demands or perturbations. Studying the mechanisms which confer these properties requires a well characterized system with a known network topology and identifiable neurons that are amenable to both electrophysiological...
