The role of genetic and phenotypic diversity in maize and its effects on aflatoxin accumulation by the fungus Aspergillus flavus
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Accumulation of the potent carcinogen, aflatoxin, in maize poses a significant health risk to humans and animals. Most commercially grown maize lines are susceptible to infection by the fungus that synthesizes aflatoxin, ...
Novel syntheses and behavior of precious metal nanoparticles
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI--COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] In this work, I report the detailed syntheses of both gold-doped iron oxide (Au@Fe2O3) and silver nanocrystals (AgNCs). The Au@Fe2O3 was produced through ultrasonic...
Genome-wide exploration of direct GBX2 target genes and their contributions to mouse development
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
