Endomembrane system of aspen roots plays a key role in defense against a common fungal endophyte Cryptosporiopsis radicicola
Download2009
Tsuneda, I., Wang, W., Currah, R.S., Tsuneda, A.
The host-endophyte interaction between roots of aspen (Populus tremuloides) andCryptosporiopsis radicicola was examined primarily by transmission electron microscopy. Hyphae growing on the exterior of the inoculated roots had a thick, electron-dense, adhesive sheath. At hyphal contact and...

Functional Characterization of Plant Patatin-like Phospholipase A III in Transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana Producing 18 Carbon Hydroxy Fatty Acids
DownloadFall 2016
Hydroxy fatty acid (HFA)-enriched oils are valuable in many oleo-chemical industries. The major natural source of HFA, however, is castor (Ricinus communis) seed, which is poisonous to human beings and animals. Although over-expressing a castor OLEATE 12-HYDROXYLASE (RcFAH12) in Arabiodpsis...

Identification and expression analysis of WRKY transcription factor genes in canola (Brassica napus L.) in response to fungal pathogens and hormone treatments
Download2009
Kav, N.N., Rahman, M.H., Yang, B., Deyholos, M.K., Jiang, Y.
Background: Members of plant WRKY transcription factor families are widely implicated in defense responses and various other physiological processes. For canola (Brassica napus L.), no WRKY genes have been described in detail. Because of the economic importance of this crop, and its evolutionary...

Acyl-CoA binding protein (ACBP) ubiquitously found in eukaryotic organisms fulfills important functions of solubilisation, protection and transport of acyl-CoA esters, a major intermediate of lipid metabolism. This thesis presents an investigation of the physiological role of the small cytosolic...
