Comparing the diversity, geographic distribution, and intraspecific variation of subterranean termites (Reticulitermes: Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) occuring in woodlands and urban environments of Missouri using morphology and 16s mtDNA
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
. In urban environments they feed upon dead wood, and therefore infest and destroy man-made wooden structures. Missouri is considered to have a moderate risk for termite infestations when compared with the states of the southeast part of the country. Despite...

Comparative analysis of aquatic insect, amphipod, and isopod community composition along environmental gradients in rheocrene spring systems of Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Spring systems in Missouri harbor a unique biota and provide critical initial discharge from subterranean aquifers to streams. However, little research has been conducted on the crenobiology or ecology in these systems. In this study, aquatic insect...
Role of the Arabidopsis peptide transporter AtOPT6 in heavy metal detoxification and plant-pathogen interaction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
AtOPT6, is a member of oligopeptide transport (OPT) gene family. In Arabidopsis thaliana, there are nine members in the OPT gene family that are thought to be involved in peptide transport. Spacial and temporal expression ...
Switchgrass responses to manganese availability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
with nutrient solutions with Mn concentrations ranging from 0 to 200 [micro]M under field conditions in three consecutive years. In the last year (perlite), pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L. R. Br.) ('KGraze') was also grown. Shoot Mn concentration was highly...
