BEHAVIORAL STUDY OF GOBIOSOMA BOSC IN RESPONSE TO VISUAL IMPLANT ELASTOMER (VIE) TAGGING
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-02)
The naked goby (Gobiosoma bosc) is a small benthic fish that inhabits western Atlantic estuaries, where it ranges from Massachusetts to Mexico. Previous work has found limited gene flow between and among populations of G. ...
Insecticides Alter the Ability of Predator Assemblages to Suppress Prey
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-01)
Agrochemicals are often deposited into freshwater bodies via rainfall and snowmelt events and can have consequences for populations and communities. Insecticides in aquatic systems can cause mortality, behavioral, and ...
The Role of the Melanocortin-1 Receptor Gene in Müllerian Mimic Ranitomeya imitator
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-02)
The Peruvian poison dart frog Ranitomeya imitator has undergone a Müllerian mimetic radiation, which means that this species has evolved color patterns that mimic three other poison dart frogs in different geographic regions ...
Our Health, Our Responsibility
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-02)
Health4PINE (People in Need Everywhere) is an organization that spreads health awareness and places an emphasis on mental, social, and physical fitness along with tips of how to achieve improved health without expensive ...
Consequences Of Long-Term Fertilization on Wetland Microbial Function
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-02)
Anthropogenic disturbances have led to increased deposition of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) into soils. Nutrient enrichment of soils is known to increase plant biomass and also increase rates of microbial litter ...
Investigating the Impact of Mettl16 Cellular Localization on RNA Binding Preferences
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-14)
Recently, mRNA modification by N6-methyladenosine (m6A) has been shown to be involved in post-transcriptional regulation processes including mRNA stability, splicing and promotion of translation. Accordingly, the mRNA ...
Bridging the Gap of Uncertainty and Doubt Between the Latino Immigrant Community and the Health Care System
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-03)
The underprivileged Latino community currently exists as a minority in the United States, yet as their numbers continuously increase, their access to certain services in the health care field requires serious attention and ...
Variation in pigmentation gene expression is associated with distinct aposematic color morphs in the poison frog Dendrobates auratus
(2019-04-18)
Abstract
Background
Color and pattern phenotypes have clear implications for survival and reproduction in many species. However, the mechanisms that produce this coloration ...
Integrative multi-omic analyses identify novel biomarkers for recurrent stroke in participants from the Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention (VISP) clinical trial
(East Carolina University, 2019-05-01)
Background: Recurrent strokes are deadlier and more disabling than primary strokes and over 185,000 individuals in the US suffer a recurrent event each year. Current diagnostic and at-risk identification tools are inadequate ...
The effects of climate variability on the timing of ichthyoplankton ingress through Beaufort Inlet, NC, USA
(East Carolina University, 2019-04-30)
Climate change has shifted the timing of seasons in many ecosystems worldwide. Species are responding to these shifting seasons with shifts of their own, both in space via migrations and in time via phenology. However, ...
