0436491StapletonThis U.S.-Argentina award supports Dr. Ann E. Stapleton, University of North Carolina at Wilmington, as she undertakes a correlative study to identify relationships of four factors to patterns of microbial diversity on plant leaves of tomato and maize. These four factors are: plant species type; plant genotype; U.V. radiation exposure; and exposure to insect pests. She will collaborate with Dr. Carlos Ballare at the Agricultural Plant Physiology and Ecology Research Institute (IFEVA) in Buenos Aires, Argentina. They will measure microbial diversity using Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis (DGGE).This work will increase our understanding of what is known about the microbial ecology of this phylosphere. The project will combine the PI's expertise in molecular genetics and genomes with her counterpart's expertise in ecology and ecophysiology.

0436491Stapleton 该美国-阿根廷奖项支持北卡罗来纳大学威尔明顿分校的 Ann E. Stapleton 博士进行相关研究，以确定四个因素与番茄和玉米植物叶子上微生物多样性模式的关系。 这四个因素是：植物种类类型；植物基因型；紫外线。辐射暴露;以及接触害虫。 她将与阿根廷布宜诺斯艾利斯农业植物生理学和生态研究所 (IFEVA) 的 Carlos Ballare 博士合作。 他们将使用变性梯度凝胶电泳 (DGGE) 来测量微生物多样性。这项工作将增加我们对该植物圈微生物生态学的了解。 该项目将把 PI 在分子遗传学和基因组方面的专业知识与她的同行在生态学和生态生理学方面的专业知识结合起来。
