Title: ANCESTRAL COMPLEXITY AND LINEAGE SPECIFIC EXPANSIONS OF THE ANIMAL BZIP INTERACTOME
Author: Kane, Eric
Date Created: 2017
Description: Protein-protein interactions are central to the regulation and function of transcription factors in time- and cell-specific regulation of the genome. Increases in interactome complexity may serve as a mechanistic driver for evolutionary novelty. T...

Title: ASSESSING COMPARATIVE FUNCTIONS FOR THE BZIP TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR NFE2 IN NEMATOSTELLA VECTENSIS
Author: Clegg, Devin
Date Created: 2020
Description: The bZIP gene superfamily is a family of transcription factors that have gone through multiple duplication events within bilaterians, specifically in vertebrates. This has led to multiple paralogs in each bZIP family while early diverging phyla ha...

Title: Assessing the impact of temperature on population-specific gene expression of a model estuarine cnidarian, Nematostella vectensis
Author: Klock, Amy
Date Created: 2020
Description: Temperature is a critical environmental factor that affects all living organisms. Climate change is resulting in rising global temperatures with marine environments being especially vulnerable. My study aimed to elucidate the temperature-dependent...

Title: Assessment of Methods and Environmental Influence on the Nematostella Vectensis Microbiome
Author: Krueger, Quinton
Date Created: 2022
Subjects--Topical: Microbiology, Bioinformatics
Description: Cnidarians are a diverse clade of marine invertebrates that inhabit a variety of environments. The conditions of these habitats are becoming more extreme with the progression of time. These organisms associate with bacteria, which are composed of ...

Title: Circadian behavior and gene expression in an estuarine cnidarian, Nematostella vectensis
Author: Leach, Whitney
Date Created: 2019
Description: Animals respond to diurnal shifts in their environment with a combination of behavioral, physiological, and molecular changes to synchronize with regularly-timed external cues. The light:dark cycle is regarded as the most important entrainment cue...

Title: Mechanisms of acclimation and adaptation in the sea urchin Echinometra sp. EZ
Author: Ketchum, Remi
Date Created: 2017
Subjects--Topical: Biology
Description: Climate change has resulted in warming of coastal aquatic habitats around the world at almost every latitude, threatening ecosystems with a significant loss in biodiversity and occurring at a rate that may exceed species’ ability to adapt. Underst...

Title: Phenotypic Plasticity and Genetic Variation in Two Diverse Groups of Mollusks
Author: Furr, Denise
Date Created: 2023
Subjects--Topical: Natural history--Classification, Physiology, Zoology
Description: Mollusks are a highly diverse phylum with some of the most extremes of body forms from wormlike Aplacophora to tentacled cephalopods. The relationship between phenotype and phylogeny is studied here in two very different groups of mollusks, the bi...

Title: SYMBIOSIS ACROSS DIET-INDUCED PHENOTYPES OF LARVAL SEA URCHINS
Author: Carrier, Tyler
Date Created: 2020
Description: Larval sea urchins have served as a fundamental system for understanding development, phenotypic plasticity, and life-history evolution over much of the last century. In the recent decade, this understanding has begun to extend to the microbiota a...

Title: The Impact of Geographic Location on Larval Mortality and Analysis of Gene Expression in Nematostella vectensis Exposed to Acute and Chronic Thermal Stress
Author: Estvander, Sarah
Date Created: 2023
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Genetics
Description: Environmental temperature plays a critical role in the survival and geographic distribution of most organisms, as it can directly influence the rate of all biochemical and physiological reactions. Recent climate models show that seasonal variation...
