Unraveling the endogenous functions of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) and characterizing a novel long non-coding RNA (slincR) that contributes to AHR-mediated toxic responses in zebrafish

Creator:: Garcia, Gloria R.
Abstract:: The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) is a ligand activated transcription factor that is a member of the basic helix-loop-helix PER-ARNT-SIM (bHLH/PAS) protein family of cellular sensors. The AHR is conserved across multiple animal phyla and is required for proper vertebrate development. A structurally diverse group of chemicals, including polycyclic aromatic...

Glyphosate Resistance and Tolerance in Italian Ryegrass (Lolium perenne spp multiflorum) : Termination Treatments, Cultivar, and Resistance Evaluation

Creator:: MacPherran, Robert Chase
Abstract:: Annual ryegrass, or Italian ryegrass (Lolium perenne spp. multiflorum), has been the most stable, in terms of acres, grass produced for the past 25 years in Oregon. Increased interest in Italian ryegrass as a cover crop has increased demand for quality seed. Ideal Italian ryegrass cover crop cultivars are named...

Size effects on the nanomechanical properties of cellulose I nanocrystals

Creator:: Pakzad, Anahita, Simonsen, John, Heiden, Patricia A., and Yassar, Reza S.
Abstract:: The ultimate properties of a fibrous composite system depend highly on the transverse mechanical properties of the fibers. Here, we report the size dependency of transverse elastic modulus in cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs). In addition, the mechanical properties of CNCs prepared from wood and cotton resources were investigated. Nanoindentation in an...

Durable resistance: A key to sustainable management of pathogens and pests

Creator:: Mundt, Christopher C.
Abstract:: This review briefly addresses what has been learned about resistance durability in recent years, as well as the questions that still remain. Molecular analyses of major gene interactions have potential to contribute to both breeding for resistance and improved understanding of virulence impacts on pathogen fitness. Though the molecular basis...

Predictors of Completion : The Influence of Academic and Non-Academic Environmental Factors on Baccalaureate Completion Among Community College Transfer Students

Creator:: Bowen, Kristie J.
Abstract:: Research examining disparity between baccalaureate completion among "native" and community college transfer students has gained attention in recent years. Current and prior research has identified important pre-college and demographic characteristics with a positive relationship to baccalaureate completion. Yet few studies have focused on the influence of nonacademic and academic environmental...

Rocks and reactors : an atomic interpretation of human rights, 1941-1979

Creator:: Richards, Linda Marie
Abstract:: The atomic age was enacted by many scientists as a way to realize health and human rights. Human rights were conceived in this context as rights to economic development, science education, and nuclear medicine. The United States Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) acted hand in hand with UN agencies and educators...

Mitigating cyanobacterial harmful algae blooms : the role of plant humics

Creator:: Theis, Susan A. F.
Abstract:: Cyanobacterial harmful algae blooms (cyanoHABs) are a growing concern worldwide due to damage of ecosystems and threats to human health. Previous research indicates that plant humics from aquatic and wetland vascular plants are effective inhibitors of cyanobacterial metabolism and growth and may be useful as control agents for mitigating cyanoHABs....

Probabilistic models for quality control in environmental sensor networks

Creator:: Dereszynski, Ethan W.
Abstract:: Networks of distributed, remote sensors are providing ecological scientists with a view of our environment that is unprecedented in detail. However, these networks are subject to harsh conditions, which lead to malfunctions in individual sensors and failures in network communications. This behavior manifests as corrupt or missing measurements in the...

Juneau Wetland Management Plan 2016 Update : Final Report : Volume 1

Creator:: Bosworth Botanical Consulting and Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: The Juneau Wetland Management Plan (JWMP), Volume 1, provides results of wetlands mapping and wetland functional assessments for currently undeveloped parcels within the City and Borough of Juneau (CBJ). The study areas were selected for their potential for future development based on low elevation and proximity to existing infrastructure. During...

Diversity Literary Awards: A Tool for Assessing an Academic Library's Collection

Creator:: Kristick, Laurel L.
Abstract:: Diversity literary awards and other sources were used to create a list of high-quality titles written by and about underrepresented groups. This list was used to assess the diversity and inclusiveness of the library collections of a land-grant university. Gaps in the collection and acquisition processes were identified and will...
