Genetic variability for kernel hardness in two soft winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivators

Creator:: Albahouh, Muhammed S.
Abstract:: To remain competitive in the international marketplace, soft white wheat cultivars grown in the Pacific Northwest must have consistent and predictable flour properties including kernel texture. As a consequence, there is a need to develop wheat cultivars for specific end uses. Wheat cultivars with very soft kernels are used largely...

New product formulation and multiple dose pharmacokinetics of acetaminophen

Creator:: Sahajwalla, Chandrahas G.
Abstract:: Four different treatments of acetaminophen were administered to eight healthy volunteers in multiple doses (five doses). Saliva acetaminophen concentration-time profiles were determined. Non-compartmental pharmacokinetic parameters for the first and last dose were calculated and compared to determine whether acetaminophen exhibited linear or dose dependent pharmacokinetics. Dose corrected area under the...

Parental contributions to aspects of ethnic development among four- and seven-year-old Chinese-American children

Creator:: Lin, Kowhei Sophia
Abstract:: This study had two major purposes. The first focused upon understanding the development of aspects of ethnic development among 4- and 7-year-old Chinese-American boys and girls from immigrant and non-immigrant families. The second focused upon understanding the contribution of selected parental (fathers' and mothers') characteristics on aspects of children's ethnic...

Effects of stand density on site index in thinned stands of Douglas-fir in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Zumrawi, Abdel Azim M. A.
Abstract:: In site index studies, the hypothesis that height growth of most conifers is independent of stand density is commonly accepted. However, some studies have shown height growth to be influenced by density particularly on medium to poor sites. In this study two locations representing a high quality site (Hoskins area,...

Determination of α-Amylase activity and soluble starch content in normal and cork spotted D̀'Anjou' pear fruit

Creator:: Li, Shiao Jing
Abstract:: There was a linear relationship of [alpha]-amylase activity from 2 to 12 hours incubation in both freeze-dried and fresh 'd'Anjou' pear fruit tissue. Activity was greater, however, in fresh as compared with freeze-dried tissues. [alpha]-Amylase activity from both types of samples was not detected until 60 minutes incubation. After 90...

Analysis methods for modeling tree and stand growth responses to fertilization and thinning

Creator:: Wang, Chao-huan
Abstract:: This paper describes methods that can be used to evaluate stand and tree growth response to a single application of fertilization and/or thinning with data collected from multiple installations. Two kinds of methods were proposed: (1) structure analysis which applies covariance analysis in a blocked design with and without sampling...

Growth growing-stock relationships in young Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)

Creator:: Sales Luis, Jaime Fernando
Abstract:: In the thinning theory, the hypothesis that the stand growth is unaffected by the density over a broad range of densities is generally accepted today. In this study three different measures of stand density were used in basal area growth and volume growth multiple regressions in even-aged managed stands, searching...

Examining bias in estimating the response variable and assessing the effect of using alternative plot designs to measure predictor variables in diameter growth modeling

Creator:: Zumrawi, Abdel Azim M. A.
Abstract:: Diameter growth of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuqa menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) estimated from increment cores was compared with that obtained from repeated measurements of tree diameter on permanent plots located in two Douglas-fir study areas in the central Coast Range of Oregon. Growth was measured for a 6-year period (1979- 1985). Diameter growth...

Pre-harvest sprouting tolerance of a synthetic hexaploid wheat (Triticum turgidum L. x Aegilops tauschii Coss.)

Creator:: Rosa, Andre Cunha
Abstract:: Pre-harvest sprouting in wheat costs farmers millions of dollars every year. Pre-harvest sprouting tolerance (PST) has minimized this problem, but improvement of PST is still necessary. Synthetic hexaploid wheats (synthetics) have been used as sources of genes coding for many useful traits. Two studies evaluated the PST of a synthetic...

Schedule-based material requirements planning : an artificial intelligence approach

Creator:: Kim, Sunuk
Abstract:: The objective of this research project was to identify the limitations associated with schedule-based Material Requirements Planning (SBMRP) and to present a knowledge-based expert system (KBES) approach to solve these problems. In SBMRP, the basic strategy is to use backward or forward scheduling based on an arbitrary dispatching rule, such...
