Kernel smoothed profile likelihood estimation in the accelerated failure time frailty model for clustered survival data

Liu, B., Lu, W., & Zhang, J. (2013, May 14). Biometrika, Vol. 100, pp. 741–755.

By: B. Liu n, W. Lu n  & J. Zhang

author keywords: Accelerated failure time model; Clustered survival data; em algorithm; Kernel smoothing; Profile likelihood estimation
topics (OpenAlex): Statistical Methods and Inference; Insurance, Mortality, Demography, Risk Management; Statistical Methods and Bayesian Inference
TL;DR: This article considers an accelerated failure time frailty model for clustered survival data and develops nonparametric maximum likelihood estimation for it via a kernel smoother aided EM algorithm and shows that the proposed estimator for the regression coefficients is consistent, asymptotically normal and semiparametric efficient when the kernel bandwidth is properly chosen.

By: B. Liu n, F. Louws n , T. Sutton n & J. Correll *

Contributors: B. Liu n, F. Louws n , T. Sutton n & J. Correll *

author keywords: Rapid identification; Diagnosis; C. acutatum; C. gloeosporioides; Glutamine synthetase (GS) gene; Restriction enzyme digestion
topics (OpenAlex): Plant Pathogens and Fungal Diseases; Yeasts and Rust Fungi Studies; Mycorrhizal Fungi and Plant Interactions
TL;DR: RFLP of the 1-kb GS intron is a reliable technique for identification and differentiation between both species, does not require a sequencing step, and may be useful to diagnostic clinics in helping to make disease management recommendations. (via Semantic Scholar)

2008 article

Trichoderma communities in soils from organic, sustainable, and conventional farms, and their relation with Southern blight of tomato

Liu, B., Glenn, D., & Buckley, K. (2008, January 16). Soil Biology and Biochemistry.

By: B. Liu n, D. Glenn* & K. Buckley n

author keywords: Trichoderma spp.; organic and conventional; dilution plating; DGGE; DNA sequence analysis; canonical correspondence analysis (CCA)
topics (OpenAlex): Plant Disease Resistance and Genetics; Plant Disease Management Techniques; Plant-Microbe Interactions and Immunity
TL;DR: Investigation of the relationship between propagule numbers and genetic diversity of Trichoderma species and Southern blight of tomato caused by soilborne plant pathogen Sclerotium rolfsii in soils with long-term organic, sustainable, and conventional farms suggested that the difference of soil suppressiveness to disease from organic,ustainable, andventional farms is due to the difference the total microbial diversity.

Contributors: J. Ristaino n , A. Johnson n, M. Blanco-Meneses n & B. Liu n

author keywords: oomycetes
topics (OpenAlex): Plant Pathogens and Resistance; Plant Pathogens and Fungal Diseases; Plant Disease Resistance and Genetics
TL;DR: A specific PCR primer, called PTAB, was developed and used with ITS4 to amplify a 764-bp region of DNA that was diagnostic for P. tabacina on tobacco and was useful for detection of the pathogen in fresh, air-dried, and cured tobacco leaves. (via Semantic Scholar)
