• In vivo functional characterization of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in Drosophila melanogaster 

  Luong, Hang Ngoc Bao (2018)

  Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are responsible for fast excitatory synaptic transmission in insect central nervous system. Their role as targets for commercial insecticides have resulted in extensive studies ...

• Population genomics and transcriptomics in the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera 

  Song, Sue Vern (2018)

  Helicoverpa armigera is an agricultural pest that causes billions of dollars' worth of damage each year. As H. armigera has evolved resistance to insecticides, an understanding of resistance genes will provide useful ...

• Identifying downstream targets of FILAMENTOUS FLOWER, a YABBY transcription factor that promotes organ polarity and lateral growth in Arabidopsis 

  Bonaccorso, Oliver (2017)

  Angiosperm leaves are typically polar structures with a distinct arrangement of cell types along the adaxial-abaxial (upper-lower) axis. Studies of leaf development in the model dicot plant Arabidopsis thaliana have shown ...
