    Name(s): Creator (cre): Gibson, Matthew Thomas, Thesis advisor (ths): Dorken, Marcel MD, Degree committee member (dgc): Emery, Neil NE, Degree committee member (dgc): Burness, Gary GB, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>Darwinian fitness is determined by the outcome of allocations of energy and nutrients to plant growth, survival, and reproduction. Allocations to reproduction differ from allocations to growth and survival because the products of reproduction (pollen, ovules, and fruits) are dispersed away from the plant and so the resources used to produce them cannot be re-allocated. As a result, and… more

    Biosynthesis and impact of cytokinins on growth of the oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus

    Name(s): Creator (cre): Grich, Nourhene, Thesis advisor (ths): Emery, Neil NE, Degree committee member (dgc): Saville, Barry BS, Degree committee member (dgc): Morrison, Erin EM, Degree committee member (dgc): Donaldson, Michael MD, Degree granting institution (dgg): Trent University
    Abstract: <p>The oyster mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus, is one of the most widely cultivated edible basidiomycetes. It has gained increased attention for its economic, environmental, and medicinal properties. While a lot is known about cytokinins (CKs) and their actions at the molecular and cellular levels in plants, much less is known about the function of CKs in other kingdoms. Cytokinins, which… more
