Article studying the king quail as an animal model to determine if chronic dietary exposure to crude oil in a parental population affects morpho-physiological phenotypic variables in their immediate offspring generation.

Poster presentation for the 2008 University Scholars Day at the University of North Texas discussing research on tuberculosis (TB) and environmental and individual indicators.

Book review of "Hawk Mountain: A Conservation Success Story" by James J. Brett and Keith L. Bildstein.

Article on the nucleotide sequence of xylE from the TOL pDK1 plasmid and structural comparison with isofunctional catechol-2,3-dioxygenase genes from TOL pWW0 and NAH7.

Poster presentation for the 2011 University Scholars Day at the University of North Texas. This poster discusses research on a comparison of infant mortality rates in the United States and Canada and discusses the impact of universal healthcare.

Article on the features of the hmg 1 subfamily of genes encoding HMG-CoA reductase in potato.

Article presents an Arabidopsis gene co-expression network constructed using RNA-Seq datasets, which will serve as a useful resource for the Arabidopsis research community to gain insights into Arabidopsis gene interactions and functions.

Presentation for the 2011 University Scholars Day at the University of North Texas discussing research on hypoxic effects on contraction of the ductus arteriosus (DA) in the chicken embryo.

The article looks at antitumor activity using a matched pair of cell lines MDA-MB-231 cells that are estrogen-independent, estrogen receptor negative and MCF-7 cells, a cell line that is estrogen receptor (ER) positive. Those polyethers that contained a O-phenyl unit were able to significantly inhibit the non-estrogen sensitive cell line but were much less effective against the estrogen sensitive cell line; that is, the human breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 showed better test results for polymers derived from diols containing the O-phenyl moiety than the breast cancer cell line MCF-7, a well-characterized estrogen receptor positive control cell line.

Presentation for the 2009 University Scholars Day at the University of North Texas discussing research on searching for the genes that encode nodulation symbiosis between medicago truncatula and rhizobia.

This article identifies discriminant metabolites between a resistant (R) and a susceptible (S) sugarcane variety at the early stages of pathogen colonization (30 and 120 days after inoculation—DAI) by untargeted and targeted metabolomics of leaves and xylem sap using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The data represent a valuable resource of potential biomarkers for metabolite-assisted selection of resistant varieties to RS.
