Analytical approach to the quantitative analysis of silicon in plants : its application to plant silica extraction

Creator:: Boone, Carmen E.
Abstract:: The literature available on the silica content of herbaceous biomass, and its relative mobility in leaching/extraction systems, includes studies that have employed several different methods for silica quantification. This makes comparison of the data difficult. The objective of this thesis research was to determine the quantitative relationships between the measured...

Geochemical cycling in a Pacific Northwest estuary (Tillamook Bay, Oregon, USA)

Creator:: Colbert, Debbie L.
Abstract:: This thesis investigates the behavior of major inorganic nutrients (P, N, Si), trace metals (Mn, Fe), and alkaline-earth metals (Ba) within Tillamook Bay over seasonal cycles and under a range of river discharge conditions from October 1997 through December 1999. Located in the Pacific Northwest region, Tillamook Bay is an...

Breeding food barley : from agronomic assessment to marker assisted selection

Creator:: Rey, Juan Ignacio
Abstract:: This research was undertaken to provide barley growers, processors, and consumers with quality food barley. Because all currently available varieties of food barley are of spring growth habit, the first phase of the research involved agronomic assessment of these varieties under Oregon conditions. Because winter barley usually yields more than...

Human bitterness detection thresholds of hop acids in beer and honey

Creator:: Kolpin, Kathryn M.
Abstract:: Alpha acids are found in the lupulin glands of hops cones. These acids have no bitterness of their own, but can be isomerized and subsequently hydrogenated to form bitter iso-α-acids and tetrahydroiso-α-acids respectively. Current literature values for the detection thresholds of iso-α-acid and tetrahydroiso-α-acid in lager beer have been reported...

The South Atlantic Ocean response to local and remote forcings

Creator:: Fetter Filho, Antonio F. H.
Abstract:: The local and remote sources of variability of the South Atlantic Ocean are investigated using a set of numerical experiments and satellite data. A global, eddy-permitting, numerical simulation is analyzed to investigate the dynamical links between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Malvinas Current (MC). The model results indicate...

Effects of refrigeration storage and processing technologies on the bioactive compounds and antioxidant capacities of blackberries ('Marion' and 'Evergreen')

Creator:: Wu, Ruyi
Abstract:: The objective of this project was to investigate the effects of refrigeration storage and processing technologies on the quality and nutraceutical benefit of blackberries. 'Marion' and 'Evergreen', the two major blackberry varieties in Oregon, were evaluated in this study. For refrigeration storage, fresh fruit were packed in clam-shell containers right...

Acute and delayed effects of an exhaustive bout of exercise on landing biomechanics in women and men

Creator:: Kipp, Kristof
Abstract:: Although female athletes are at greater risk of non-contact knee injuries than men, the factors that contribute to these injuries are not well understood. One important question is whether intense exercise influences the risk of knee injury, both acutely and over the following days. The purpose of this study was...

Changes in grain quality and grain protein composition of winter wheat cultivars under different levels of soil nitrogen and water stress

Creator:: Saint Pierre, Carolina
Abstract:: Hard white winter (HVVW) wheat cultivars must have superior protein quality and consistent processing quality to be successful in the Asian market. New cultivars and management strategies are needed to produce HVVW grain for both bread and noodle applications from diverse environments in the US Pacific Northwest (PNW). This study...

Immunological and physiochemical characterization of fish myosins

Creator:: Reed, Zachary H.
Abstract:: Increased sales of surimi seafood, with the majority as crabstick in the United States indicates that surimi based products are becoming more popular. With growing popularity, there is increased competition for market share. Under these circumstances, some companies may be willing to sacrifice product quality in order to facilitate manufacture...

From the Oregon Wolfe Barley to fall-sown food barley : markers, maps, marker-assisted selection and quantitative trait loci

Creator:: Chutimanitsakun, Yada
Abstract:: Understanding complex traits is a fundamental challenge in plant genetics and a prerequisite for molecular breeding. Tools for trait dissection are markers, maps, and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. Marker-assisted selection (MAS) is an application that integrates these tools. In this thesis research, a new sequence-based marker was evaluated, maps...
