Comparing The Genome Expression Profiles Of Verrucomicrobium Sp. Strain Tav2 Cells Grown Under Two Different Oxygen Concentrations
Willis, Austin (Biology, 2010-11-01)Termites are significantly different in their lifestyles and organization but most are linked by the common trait in degrading plant material, whether it is leaf litter, wood, soil or animal waste. They consume the ... -
Insights into the genomic and metabolic adaptations of Termite Associated Verrucomicrobia strains using functional and comparative genomics
Kotak, Malini Sharadkumar (2016-12-16)The symbiotic gut organisms of termites play an important role in lignocellulose digestion and other related metabolic processes. Previous studies on Diplosphaera colitermitum TAV2, a Verrucomicrobium isolated from the ... -
RESPONSE OF MICROBIAL NETWORKS AND MICROBIOMES TO THE FOREST-TO-PASTURE CONVERSION IN AMAZON SOILS
Khan, Md Abdul Wadad; 0000-0001-5258-240X (2016-11-30)The Amazon rainforest is the largest tropical rainforest ecosystem in the world, and an extremely important region ecologically. Due to the growing human needs mainly for cattle ranching and cultivation, the rainforest has ... -
Using Shewanella Baltica Ecotypes As A Model For Transcriptional Variation At The Population Level
Hambright, William Sealy (Biology, 2011-03-03)Eukaryotic studies have shown considerable transcriptional variation among individuals of the same population. Owing to the cost of sequencing entire eukaryotic genomes, tested organisms were assumed to be genomically ...
