Investigating the effects of temperature on secondary metabolism in Vitis vinifera L. cv. merlot berries

Creator:: Cohen, Seth D.
Abstract:: Grapes (e.g. Vitis vinifera L.) are one of the more important fruit crops from an economic standpoint with world market values over 550 million US dollars in 2007 and 2008, second to apples (United States Department of Agriculture). While a satisfactory level of ripeness is of primary concern, the quality...

Composition of flavonoid phenolic polymers isolated from red wine during maceration and significance of flavan-3-ols in foods pertaining to biological activity

Creator:: Aron, Patricia M.
Abstract:: Representing the most common flavonoid consumed in the American diet, the flavanols and their polymeric condensation products, the proanthocyanidins, are regarded as functional ingredients in various beverages, whole and processed foods, herbal remedies and supplements. Their presence in food affects food quality parameters including astringency, bitterness, sourness, sweetness, salivary viscosity,...

Zinc Tin Oxide Thin Films by Pulsed Laser Deposition for use in Transparent Thin-Film Transistors

Creator:: Osborne, James J.
Abstract:: Zinc tin oxide (ZTO) films deposited by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) are investigated as a channel layers for transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs). Films are deposited on glass for characterization, and transistor channel layers are deposited onto aluminum oxide-titanium oxide/tin doped indium oxide/glass substrates (ATO/ITO/glass) to produce TTFTs. UV-visible spectroscopy on...

Breeding tomatoes for improved antioxidant activity

Creator:: Mes, Peter Jack, 1976-
Abstract:: Purple tomatoes (Lycopersicon esculemtum) were bred by incorporating genes that result in anthocyanin production in the skin of fruits. These genes originally came from related wild species as no naturally occurring genes encoding fruit anthocyanin expression are known within the cultivated species. By combining Aft or Abg with atv or...

Evidence for the involvement of a mitochondrial permeability transistion in a victorin-Induced cell death

Creator:: Curtis, Marc James
Abstract:: Production of the host selective toxin victorin is causal to pathogenesis of Cochliobolus victoriae on oats. The dominant Vb gene confers oat sensitivity to victorin, and is genetically inseparable from Pc2, which confers resistance to Puccinia coronata f. sp. avena. Victorin induces apoptotic-like cell death, and cell death is a...

Breeding tomato for increased fruit phenolics

Creator:: Boches, Peter S.
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to develop tools and germplasm for the production of tomatoes (Solanum lycopersicum L.) with high fruit phenolics without the use of genetic engineering. A candidate gene analysis was undertaken to identify genes regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis in tomato fruit (Aft, Abg, atv, and Purple Smudge)....

The effect of a 50-km ultramarathon on vitamin B-6 metabolism and plasma and urinary urea nitrogen

Creator:: Grediagin, Ann
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of extreme exercise on vitamin B-6 metabolism and urea nitrogen. Nine men and five women completed two 5-day trials; Trial 1 (T1) included a 50-km ultramarathon on day 4 and during Trial 2 (T2) subjects were "inactive" on day 4....

Habitat associations of riparian beetles (Coleoptera) at Big Beaver Creek Research Natural Area, North Cascades National Park, Washington

Creator:: LaBonte, James R.
Abstract:: Beetle diversity and habitat associations of five prevalent riparian plant communities were examined along the lower reaches of Big Beaver Creek Research Natural Area, North Cascades National Park, Washington. These communities were defined by dominant tree species, and included Alder Swamps, Cedar-Hemlock Forests, Douglas-fir Forests, Gravel Bars, and Willow-Sedge Swamps....

Managing the spatial configuration of land : the economics of land use and habitat fragmentation

Creator:: Lewis, David James
Abstract:: Habitat fragmentation has been widely studied in the biological literature and is considered a primary threat to biodiversity. However, there has been little research on land-use policies to reduce fragmentation. This dissertation focuses on two major research issues related to fragmentation policies. First, I develop an analytical model to analyze...

The relationship of protein composition to end-product functionality of hard white wheat

Creator:: Gehlhar, Sarah Bronwen
Abstract:: Improving quality of hard white wheat (HW) cultivars in the Pacific Northwest is important to expand exports to Asia. Asian food processors prefer HW grain that can satisfy an array of baking needs, as well as produce superior quality noodle products. Three experimental populations were developed from single cross and...
