Investigating Transcriptional Control of Specialized Gene Expression in Plants

Creator:: Fraser, Valerie N.
Abstract:: Specialized or secondary metabolism is a collection of pathways and small molecules that, while beneficial to an organism, are not strictly necessary for survival. Plants use secondary metabolites to, among other things, attract pollinators, defend against biotic and abiotic stressors, and form symbioses. Natural products from plants have seen an...

A Mixed Methods Analysis of Philippine Labor Export Policies and Impacts on Overseas Filipino Workers

Creator:: O'Steen, Brianna
Abstract:: The Philippines’ labor export system is a complex web of policy instruments that have been amended, repealed, and refined over the last four decades. The laws along with the hortatory tools used to promote them have shaped the lives of millions of Filipinos, separating families across oceans. Temporary labor migration,...

Phylogenomics and Evolution of Ground Beetles, with an Emphasis on the Speciose Tribes Chlaeniini and Bembidiini (Coleoptera: Carabidae)

Creator:: Pflug, James M.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I investigate the evolution and genomes of carabid beetles, a worldwide family of over 38,000 species. I focus on two species-rich groups, the tribes Chlaeniini and Bembidiini, both of which are primarily found on the shores of bodies of water. The former are distinctive for their defensive...

Development of Computational, Visualization, and Molecular Tools for Fungal and Oomycete Community Ecology

Creator:: Foster, Zachary Stephen Longiaru
Abstract:: Oomycetes are an important group of organisms with a variety of ecological roles similar to fungi. Although many are well-studied plant pathogens known for their devastating effects on agricultural systems, most are little-studied saprobes and parasites of plants and animals in nearly every ecosystem on earth. The advent of affordable...

Pre-Prototyping Framework: An Early Design Prototyping Methodology for Human-Centered Products and Workplaces

Creator:: Ahmed, Salman
Abstract:: Prototyping is a crucial step in product design and development, but it is also known as the highest sunk cost. The top 20 Research and Development (R&D) department spends 142 billion dollars, yet 40 to 46 percent of this money goes into developing products that cannot even make to the...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...

Defining Project‐Specific Custom CLT Grade Utilizing Low‐Value Ponderosa Pine Lumber from Logs Harvested in SW Oregon and Northern California Forest Restoration Programs

Creator:: Jahedi, Sina
Abstract:: Restoration programs effectively prevent or mitigate wildfires and pest outbreaks in the forest lands. The most common approach is to selectively harvest smaller and dead trees in order to preserve larger and superior trees. Ponderosa pine, Pinus ponderosa, (PP) lumber is one of the common species harvested from restoration programs...

Monte Carlo Radiation Transfer Simulations of Gamma Ray Burst Prompt Emission

Creator:: Parsotan, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are the most energetic explosions in the Universe, producing up to $\sim10^{53}$ ergs of energy in the first few seconds of their emission -- the so-called prompt phase that is dominated by high energy X-ray and $\gamma$-ray photons. The very large luminosities released in these events...

Engineering an Ex-Vivo System to Study Transport Phenomena in the Human Intervertebral Disc

Creator:: Shalash, Ward
Abstract:: Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, entailing a significant socioeconomic impact. A primary source of back pain can be attributed to intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration allowing nerve ingrowth, facet joint arthritis, disc bulging, and osteophyte formations that press on nearby nerve roots or the spinal cord. While...
