Rapid effects of corticosterone on stress-related behaviors in an amphibian

Creator:: Chiavarini, Katherine E.
Abstract:: In the wild, when an animal is exposed to predators or harsh conditions, the stress response is often associated with fleeing behaviors, which are seen as increased locomotor behavior. Handling-stress procedures and intracerebroventricular (icy) injection of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) have both been shown to cause an increase in locomotor activity...

Neuroanatomical distribution of androgen and estrogen receptors in the brain of the roughskin newt, Taricha granulosa

Creator:: Davis, Glen Andrew
Abstract:: The gonadal steroids, testosterone and estradiol, are known to be important modulators of neuronal functions and behaviors in most vertebrate species. These steroid hormones also elicit changes in neuropeptide synthesis and secretion, alter specific neurohormone receptor levels, and alter neuronal morphology and electrophysiology. Many of the actions of androgens and...

Industrial tomatoes in Panama : a comparative analysis of its competitive potential in the United States market for Panamanian producers

Creator:: Qvistgaard P., Carlos G.
Abstract:: A farm level comparative study was conducted to determine the extend to which the production component of the tomato industry of Panama is competitive with its American producer counterparts in California. In addition, processing costs, and marketing conditions/costs are factors that determine a competitive potential. The objective of this study...

Effect of weather variation on economic results from grasshopper control tactics in Chad : a partial validation of GHLSIM

Creator:: Sheikh, Allah Ditta
Abstract:: Agricultural production in the Sahelian region of Africa is among the lowest in the world. Cyclical infestations of locusts and grasshoppers have contributed to this low productivity. The infestations appear to be triggered by heavy rainfall at the beginning of a crop season after extended drought. Because locusts and grasshoppers...

Temporal effects of Dexamethasone on skeletal muscle protein metabolism in rabbits

Creator:: Yeh, Jan-ying
Abstract:: Glucocorticoids are growth-inhibiting steroids. They have been reported to reduce muscle growth by reducing protein synthesis. However, their actions on muscle protein degradation remain equivocal. Glucocorticoids have been reported to transiently increase muscle protein degradation, to not affect this process and to reduce muscle protein degradation. Reasons for these conflicting...

Changes in structure and stress in Mo/a-Si thin films upon annealing

Creator:: Weber, Frank John
Abstract:: The structural and stress changes in molybdenum/amorphous silicon (Mo/a-Si) EUV reflecting multilayers during annealing at 316°C were studied. The amorphous interlayers, with an Mo:Si stoichiometry of 1:2, grew during annealing. The residual stresses in each component of the multilayer also changed significantly. Through high resolution electron microscopy, selected area electron...

Fuzzy logic control of an inverted pendulum with vision feedback

Creator:: Holzapfel, Frank G.
Abstract:: Recent technical progress has made new forms of controller implementations on computers possible. Especially the technique of Fuzzy Logic Control has found a growing number of applications. Also the development of fast A/D converters has made the acquisation of data with vision based systems possible. In this project we combine...

An examination of market structure and market power for annual and perennial ryegrass seed

Creator:: Ghasedi, Bizhan
Abstract:: This thesis examines how two grass seed industries respond to changes in the production environment. Two sets of factors are necessary to understand what adjustments would be made. First, it is necessary to know the nature of the markets and whether market power is being exerted. Second we need to...
