Cellular Elucidation of Mode of Defense Responses in Cotton Roots in response to Rotylenchulus reniformis Infections 

Jeffrey, Ross (2017-04-15)
The hypersensitive response is an important mechanism of plant innate immunity which has been studied for decades. It is the immune response whereby a host plant R genes will recognize a specific effector gene from a ...

Characterization of 12-Oxo-phytodienoic Acid Signaling in Broad-spectrum Plant Defense Responses and Its Coordination with Growth Fitness 

Adhikari, Ashna (2023-08-01)  ETD File Embargoed
The jasmonate family of phytohormones plays central roles in plant development and stress acclimation. However, the architecture of their signaling circuits remains largely unknown. Here, we describe the versatile ...

Characterizing a new activity of glutathione in the regulation of redox metabolic pathways 

Barbosa Dos Santos, Izailda (2019-07-16)
As sessile organisms, plants employ an intricate signaling network to interconnect and orchestrate multiple layers of defense mechanism to overcome environmental stresses. In this sense, cyclophilins (CYPs) belong to a ...

Development of Root Hairs is aligned with the Tolerance Trait of Cotton against the Infections of Rotylenchulus Reniformis, Plant Parasitic Nematode 

Gosse, Heather (2018-11-15)
Plant parasitic nematodes (PPN) are major cotton pathogens, causing the annual yield of up to 10 % annually. Lately, reniform nematode (RN, Rotylenchulus reniformis) has become a major threat to the cotton farming industry ...

Investigating the molecular mechanism and genetic utility of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria-mediated induced systemic tolerance 

Thapa, Parbati (2024-05-06)  ETD File Embargoed
Drought is a major abiotic stress limiting agriculture production. Most research is focused on identifying and subsequently overexpressing plant drought-responsive genes (DRGs) to enhance the drought tolerance of plants. ...

The Roles of Cytokinins and Cytokinin-N-Glucosides in Development and Gene Expression of Arabidopsis thaliana 

Hallmark, Howard Tucker (2020-07-02)
The phytohormone cytokinin (CK) was first discovered over sixty years ago, and the decades following have produced an enormous amount of data about the various roles CK plays in intracellular signaling, gene expression, ...
