Genes, enzymes, and chemicals of terpenoid diversity in the constitutive and induced defence of conifers against insects and pathogens
Download2006-02-02
Keeling, Christopher I., Bohlmann, Jörg
Insects select their hosts, but trees cannot select which herbivores will feed upon them. Thus, as long-lived stationary organisms, conifers must resist the onslaught of varying and multiple attackers over their lifetime. Arguably, the greatest threats to conifers are herbivorous insects and...

Bassett, E., Wishart, D.S., Lu, P., MacDonnell, C., Berjanskii, M., Zhou, J., Liang, J., Zhou, Y., Cruz, J.A., Lin, G., Tang, P.
GeNMR (GEnerate NMR structures) is a web server for rapidly generating accurate 3D protein structures using sequence data, NOE-based distance restraints and/or NMR chemical shifts as input. GeNMR accepts distance restraints in XPLOR or CYANA format as well as chemical shift files in either SHIFTY...

Stothard, P., Dennis, J.J., Lynch, K.H.
Abstract Background: The Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) is comprised of at least seventeen Gram-negative species that cause infections in cystic fibrosis patients. Because BCC bacteria are broadly antibiotic resistant, phage therapy is currently being investigated as a possible alternative...

Genomic sequence and activity of KS10, a transposable phage of the Burkholderia cepacia complex
Download2008
Seed, K.D., Lynch, K.H., Dennis, J.J., Goudie, A.D., Wishart, D.S., Shrivastava, S., Stothard, P.
Background: The Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) is a versatile group of Gram negative organisms that can be found throughout the environment in sources such as soil, water, and plants. While BCC bacteria can be involved in beneficial interactions with plants, they are also considered...

Populations of a host species may exhibit different assemblages of parasites and other symbionts. The loss of certain species of symbionts (lineage sorting, or ‘‘missing-the-boat’’) is a mechanism by which geographical variation in symbiont assemblages can arise. We studied feather mites and lice...

GERp95, a membrane-associated protein that belongs to a family of proteins involved in stem cell differentiation
Download1999
DiMattia, G.E., Hansen, D., Tahbaz, N., Hobman, T.C., Hendricks, L.C., Pilgrim, D., Cikaluk, D.E.
A panel of mAbs was elicited against intracellular membrane fractions from rat pancreas. One of the antibodies reacted with a 95-kDa protein that localizes primarily to the Golgi complex or the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), depending on cell type. The corresponding cDNA was cloned and sequenced and...

Gleichenia appianense sp. nov. (Gleicheniaceae): A permineralized rhizome and associated vegetative remains from the Eocene of Vancouver Island, British Columbia
Download2006
Beard, G., Rothwell, G. W., Stockey, R. A., Mindell, R. A.
A permineralized gleicheniaceous rhizome with an attached stipe base has been identified from the Appian Way locality on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The specimens are preserved in Middle Eocene marine calcareous concretions that are studied using the cellulose acetate peel...
