2013 journal article

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

BIOMETRIKA, 100(3), 741–755.

By: B. Liu*, W. Lu* & J. Zhang

author keywords: Accelerated failure time model; Clustered survival data; em algorithm; Kernel smoothing; Profile likelihood estimation
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.

2012 journal article

A rapid qualitative molecular method for the identification of Colletotrichum acutatum and C. gloeosporioides

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PLANT PATHOLOGY, 132(4), 593–607.

By: 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
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 journal article

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

SOIL BIOLOGY & BIOCHEMISTRY, 40(5), 1124–1136.

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)
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.

2007 journal article

Identification of the tobacco blue mold pathogen, Peronospora tabacina, by polymerase chain reaction

PLANT DISEASE, 91(6), 685–691.

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

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

author keywords: oomycetes
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)

SOIL BIOLOGY & BIOCHEMISTRY, 39(9), 2302–2316.

By: B. Liu n, M. Gumpertz n, S. Hu n  & J. Ristaino n
