Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Jeff F. Pummill's research focuses on genomic and molecular analyses of various organisms, including bacteria, scorpions, and chickens. He has investigated the genomes of bacterial species such as *Staphylococcus agnetis* and *Enterococcus cecorum*, particularly in the context of lameness and sepsis outbreaks in broiler chickens. His work also includes the complete mitochondrial genome sequencing of the scorpion *Centruroides vittatus* and genome assembly of a new *Mycoplasma* species found within this scorpion. Pummill has explored the genetic basis of reduced toxicity in *Centruroides vittatus* by examining the expression and production of its beta toxins. He has co-authored publications on phylogenomic analyses of *Staphylococcus* species and is a co-director of the High Performance Computing Center at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville. His research network includes collaborators such as Douglas D. Rhoads and Adnan Alrubaye from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
