-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2017)Tetraploid plant species are preferred in certain agricultural cases over their diploid counterparts for larger biomass and increased resistance to abiotic stresses. Naturally occurring tetraploids are thought to result ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2013)Integrated Positron Emission Tomography and Computerized Tomography (PET/CT) is a powerful imaging technique that combines functional and anatomical information for early and accurate detection of cancer. Limited availability ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary’s University, 2018)Environmental stresses have had a major impact on gene expression and evolutionary adaptation as a whole. What has been discovered is that polyploids have a genetic advantage compared to their diploid relatives in allele ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2013)Despite many studies on the taxonomy of the Triticeae, no general consensus has yet been agreed upon as to their phylogenetics. This is attributed to extremely high rates of hybridization and polyploidization. Levels of ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2020)Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is one of the most devastating agriculture diseases that affects barley worldwide by reducing crop yields and grain quality. The main causal organism of concern in Eastern Canada is the fungal ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2023-05-01)Soil salinity impacts crop plants globally and can lead to the death of the plant due to incapacitation of cellular processes. To increase survival, plants have evolved many adaptation mechanisms to tolerate salt stress ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)Environmental stresses often disrupt and alter the growth of plants and their life cycles. This causes molecular responses to upregulate gene expression, inducing important stress responsive genes. Dispersal and continuous ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2014)The genetic diversity of a species measures its genetic variation, or population diversity, which determines evolutionary relationships; high genetic diversity is linked to survival, adaptation and evolution. In this study, ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2020)Elymus is a polyploid genus within the grass tribe (Triticeae) and is thought to have originated from the hybridization between species in other Triticeae genera. As Elymus originated from processes such as hybridization ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2016)Orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.), an important member of the Poaceae family, is a cool-season perennial forage grass, and is widely used for hay production throughout temperate and subtropical regions of the world. ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2013)Pseudoroegneria are diploid perennial grasses of the Triticeae tribe. The haplome “St” of Pseudoroegneria is shared with several important polyploid species such as Elymus, Kengyilia and, Elytrigia. Due to frequent ...
-
(Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2021)Soil salinity is a worldwide problem, which hinders the growth of crop yields and brings great challenges to the world. To deal with the reduction of agricultural land, research and cultivating the development of salt-tolerant ...
