The role of the skin microbiome in amphibian pathogen susceptibility in Turnbull National Wildlife Refuge
… with the skin microbiome in P. regilla (Mantel test, r=0.43, p=0.02), which had higher Bd levels, but this pattern was not observed in the less infected R. luv (Mantel test, r=-0.0086, p=0.93). Lastly, for P. regilla only, skin microbiomes varied across wetland sites (PERMANOVA, p=0.004), …

Molecular diversity of Primula apennina and phylogeny of Primula Subsection Euauricula
… genetic and geographic distances was positive (Mantel test, r = 0.232). All together, these analyses revealed a weak but significant spatial genetic structure in P. apennina, with gene flow acting as a homogenizing force that prevents a stronger differentiation of populations. Conservation …

On the origins of enzyme inhibitor selectivity and promiscuity: a case study of protein kinase binding to staurosporine
… developed a statistical approach based on the Mantel test to find the relationship between the shapes of ATP binding sites and their affinities for inhibitors. My shape-based dendrogram shows clustering of the kinases based on similarity in shape. I investigate the pocket in terms of …

Analisi della variabilità genetica e della connettività tra popolazioni di due specie di Elasmobranchi: Raja clavata L.,1758 e Scyliorhinus canicula (L., 1758)
… emerged (AMOVA: Fct=0.038, P<0.05), furthermore Mantel test found a significant association between genetic and geographical distance across all samples. The strong subdivision between eastern Mediterranean and other samples is also consistent with the number of cluster identified in STRUCTURE, …

Role of seed mixes, biochar soil amendment, and the soil seed bank in improving Palouse Prairie restoration
… First, I conducted a multifactorial experiment testing the interacting effects of perennial seed mix, annual seed mix, and biochar addition across north, southwest, ridge, and swale topographic positions. A mixed linear model was used to compare native and nonnative cover and richness across all …

Geographic variation in the phenotype of an African horseshoe bat species, Rhinolophus damarensis, (Chiroptera: Rhinolophidae)
… Africa (Chapter 2). Three hypotheses were tested. The first one, James’Rule (JR), states that individuals occurring in hot humid environments generally have smaller body sizes than conspecifics that occur in cooler, dryer environments, and the largest are expected to occur in cool, dry …

Einfluss eines gentechnisch veränderten, Auxin produzierenden Rhizobienstammes auf die bakterielle Bodengemeinschaft
… of the used plasmids to the majority of the tested soil bacteria (gram - and gram +). The expression of the eGFP I used to detect the transferred plasmid in the recipient cells was disturbed by metabolic inactivity and the attachment of the bacteria to fluorescent soil particles. Therefore it …
