A molecular phylogeny of the Solanaceae
- R. Olmstead, L. Bohs, Hala M. Abdel Migid, Eugenio Santiago-Valentín, V. F. García, S. Collier
- Biology
- 1 November 2008
A phylogeny of Solanaceae is presented based on the chloroplast DNA regions ndhF and trnLF. With 89 genera and 190 species included, this represents a nearly comprehensive genus-level sampling and… Expand
Cell death mediated by the N-terminal domains of a unique and highly conserved class of NB-LRR protein.

- 13 July 2011
Plant genomes encode large numbers of nucleotide-binding, leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) proteins, many of which are active in pathogen detection and defense response induction. NB-LRR proteins fall… Expand
The balance between isoforms of the prickle LIM domain protein is critical for planar polarity in Drosophila imaginal discs.
The tissue polarity mutants in Drosophila include a set of conserved gene products that appear to be involved in the control of cytoskeletal architecture. Here we show that the tissue polarity gene… Expand
The Coiled-Coil and Nucleotide Binding Domains of the Potato Rx Disease Resistance Protein Function in Pathogen Recognition and Signaling[W][OA]
- G. Rairdan, S. Collier, M. Sacco, Thomas T Baldwin, Teresa Boettrich, P. Moffett
- Biology, Medicine
- The Plant Cell Online
- 1 March 2008
Plant genomes encode large numbers of nucleotide binding and leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) proteins, some of which mediate the recognition of pathogen-encoded proteins. Following recognition, the… Expand
NB-LRRs work a "bait and switch" on pathogens.

- 1 October 2009
Plant genomes encode large numbers of highly variable nucleotide binding leucine-rich repeat (NB-LRR) disease resistance proteins. These proteins have been studied extensively to understand their… Expand
A distant coilin homologue is required for the formation of cajal bodies in Arabidopsis.

Cajal bodies (CBs) are subnuclear bodies that are widespread in eukaryotes, being found in mammals, many other vertebrates and in all plant species so far examined. They are mobile structures,… Expand
Arabidopsis POT1A interacts with TERT-V(I8), an N-terminal splicing variant of telomerase
- P. Rossignol, S. Collier, M. Bush, Peter Shaw, J. Doonan
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of Cell Science
- 15 October 2007
Chromosome integrity is maintained via the actions of ribonucleoprotein complexes that can add telomeric repeats or can protect the chromosome end from being degraded. POT1 (protection of telomeres… Expand
Structural Basis for the Interaction between the Potato Virus X Resistance Protein (Rx) and Its Cofactor Ran GTPase-activating Protein 2 (RanGAP2)*
- Wei Hao, S. Collier, P. Moffett, J. Chai
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of Biological Chemistry
- 5 November 2013
Background: The interaction of the potato disease resistance protein Rx with RanGAP2 is important for virus resistance. Results: The crystal structure of the complex of the Rx and RanGAP2 N-terminal… Expand
Plant breeding for harmony between agriculture and the environment
- E. C. Brummer, Wesley T Barber, +6 authors A. Thro
- Business
- 1 December 2011
Plant breeding programs primarily focus on improving a crop's environmental adaptability and biotic stress tolerance in order to increase yield. Crop improvements made since the 1950s – coupled with… Expand
Quantifying carbon for agricultural soil management: from the current status toward a global soil information system
- K. Paustian, S. Collier, +20 authors M. Jahn
- Environmental Science
- 3 September 2019
Abstract The importance of building/maintaining soil carbon, for soil health and CO2 mitigation, is of increasing interest to a wide audience, including policymakers, NGOs and land managers. Integral… Expand
