Effects of Aluminum Oxide Nanoparticles on the Growth, Development, and microRNA Expression of Tobacco ()
Burklew, Caitlin E.; Ashlock, Jordan; Winfrey, William B.; Zhang, Baohong (2012)Nanoparticles are a class of newly emerging environmental pollutions. To date, few experiments have been conducted to investigate the effect nanoparticles may have on plant growth and development. It is important to study ... -

A Functional Analysis of microRNAs in Nicotiana tabacum
Burklew, Caitlin E. (East Carolina University, 2012)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a newly discovered class of endogenous post-transcriptional gene regulators that are typically 20-22 nucleotides in length that do not code for proteins. MiRNAs regulate gene expression by either ...
