Overwintering of Erysiphe necator and Inoculum Monitoring for Decision Aids

Creator:: Thiessen, Lindsey D.
Abstract:: Grape powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) causes economic damages to grape worldwide due to the cost of management and injury to berries. Each region where European grapevine (Vitis vinifera) is grown experiences a unique epidemic, and disease prediction models that are based on empirical correlations of weather data to disease fail...

Transcriptional regulation of the human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene

Creator:: Guo, Chunxiao
Abstract:: Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

Multi-objective Optimization of Reservoir Operation Under Uncertainty with Robust and Flexible Decision Variables

Creator:: Hosseini, Parnian
Abstract:: Optimization of reservoir operation is involves various competing objectives for a scarce resource (water). To find the optimal operation of reservoirs, it is essential to consider multiple objectives simultaneously. There are various sources of uncertainty associated with the reservoir operation problem that should be considered as well. The overarching goal...

The effect of dietary compounds on human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide gene expression mediated through farnesoid X receptor and its potential role in gastrointestinal health

Creator:: Campbell, Yan
Abstract:: The human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP) is a broad spectrum microbicidal agent and modulator of both the innate and adaptive immune system. It is induced by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25(OH)₂D₃) through activation of the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and primary bile salts through activation of the xenobiotic nuclear receptor farnesoid X...

Petrogenesis of the Steens Basalt : Variation in Source Contributions and Effects of Crustal Passage During the Onset of Columbia River Flood Basalt Volcanism

Creator:: Moore, Nicole E.
Abstract:: Continental flood basalts represent short-lived but immense blasts of mafic magma to the continental crust. The youngest and smallest continental flood basalt worldwide, the Columbia River Basalt, initiated with the eruption of the most mafic member, the Steens Basalt (~16.9 Ma). The Steens Basalt is exposed in southeast Oregon, southwest...

The effects of enhanced expression of the GluN2B (NR2B) subunit of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor on memory in aged animals

Creator:: Brim, Brenna L.
Abstract:: As the aging population continues to grow worldwide, age-related complications are becoming more apparent within the aging population. One of the first age-related complications to become apparent is age-associated memory impairment and it can make the elderly more dependent on caregivers early on. The N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is important to...

Role of Melanocytic Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) in UVB-induced Melanocyte Homeostasisand Keratinocytic Retinoid–X-Receptor α (RXRα) in UVB Induced Melanomagenesis

Creator:: Chagani, Sharmeen
Abstract:: Cutaneous melanoma remains the deadliest form of skin cancer arising from malignant transformation of pigment-producing melanocytes, with a diagnosis of metastasis indicating a median survival rate of less than a year. Solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation, especially childhood sun exposure, is an important etiological risk factor of melanoma. This DNA damage...

Local scale spatial and temporal variation in wet deposition of persistent organic pollutants by snow

Creator:: Walsh, Christopher D.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to assess the variability of POP deposition by snow on a 10 km spatial scale by measuring the POP concentrations in fresh-fallen snow from remote alpine sites. Samples of pre-metamorphic snow were concurrently collected from three remote alpine sites, of matched altitude and exposure,...

Tempo and Mode of Lineage and Morphological Diversification in a Hyperdiverse Freshwater Fish Radiation (Teleostei : Characiformes)

Creator:: Burns, Michael D.
Abstract:: Characiform fishes form one of the most diverse freshwater fish clades in the world. Comprising more than 2000 species and distributed primarily in South America and Africa, characiforms vary dramatically in their ecomorphology. However, the evolutionary processes responsible for the immense ecomorphological diversity remains unknown. Recently, a study postulated that...

An Exploratory Study of Mathematics Disciplinary Practices in Advanced Mathematics

Creator:: Glover, Erin D.
Abstract:: Policy and research have increased attention in K12 mathematics education on core mathematical practices such as argumentation, justification, and proof, that are central to students learning and doing mathematics. One reason for this increased focus is the empirical evidence that engaging students in mathematical practices provide more equitable opportunities for...
