CRISPR/CAS9 SYSTEMS FOR PLANT GENOME EDITING
Paul, Joseph W. III (East Carolina University, 2016-04-28)The increasing burden of the world population on agriculture requires the development of more robust crops. Dissecting the basic biology that underlies plant susceptibility to pathogens and drives crop loss will inform ... -
Cryptic Seed Heteromorphism in Packera tomentosa (Asteraceae) : Differences in Seed Mass Characteristics and Germination
Leverett, Lindsay D. (East Carolina University, 2012)Germination requirements of seeds can dictate when and where plant offspring establish. Microsites available for germination vary spatially and temporally in factors such as temperature and moisture; thus, the production ... -

Delayed Self-Fertilization in Triodanis perfoliata
Patel, Hetal, R (2014)Self-fertilization is a reproductive technique that allows a plant to produce offspring even when pollinators may be scarce. Utilizing the process of delayed selfing, a species is with the benefits of both cross-pollination ... -
Delination of Coastal Shark Habitat within North Carolina Waters Using Acoustic Telemetry, Fisher-Independent Surveys, and Local Ecological Knowledge
Bangley, Charles W. (East Carolina University, 2016-07-20)Knowledge of shark habitat preferences and use patterns is important to effectively manage shark fisheries and account for interactions between sharks and species targeted by other fishery management or conservation efforts. ... -
Describing Nitrogen Dynamics in Eastern North Carolina Waterfowl Impoundments by Combining Field-Scale and Laboratory-Scale Based Approaches
Hinckley, Brian (East Carolina University, 2018-08-01)Waterfowl impoundments are wetlands that are hydrologically managed to provide food and habitat for migratory bird populations. Certain impoundment types have recently been found to export nitrogen (N) loads during seasonally ... -
DETECTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF THE AMPHIBIAN FUNGAL DISEASE CHYTRIDIOMYCOSIS IN PERUVIAN AMPHIBIANS
Kosch, Tiffany A. (East Carolina University, 2012)Chytridiomycosis is an amphibian disease caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd;Longcore et al. 1999). This disease has been identified by the Amphibian Conservation Action Plan as one of the main ... -

Determining the Ability of an At-home Test Kit to Detect Lead in Drinking Fountains at East Carolina University
Jones, Megan (East Carolina University, 2022-12-15)Lead and other contaminants in drinking water still pose as an important problem in today’s society and can have detrimental effects on human health. At-home water testing kits can offer consumers an easy and affordable ... -
Determining the Drivers of Mosquito and Fish Distributions In An Urban, Riverine Rock Pool Metacommunity
Kernstine, Melissa A (East Carolina University, 2021-07-20)Metacommunities and metapopulations are comprised of interconnected patches of habitat linked by dispersal, which has traditionally been considered a stochastic process in which organisms move across space randomly. Recently ...
