  • Modifications to Rearing Environments as a Method for Reducing Domestication Selection in Hatchery-reared Steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

    Creator:
    Obley, Miriam
    Abstract:
    Since the decline of salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest, supplementation programs have become frequently implemented by hatcheries as a way to protect and conserve wild stock. However, hatchery-reared fish have lower fitness than wild fish which is likely due to adaptation to the hatchery environment, i.e., domestication selection. Fish...

  • Impact of Dairy Manure Digestate on Microbial Activities in Soil

    Creator:
    Waggoner, Ashley L
    Abstract:
    Amendments and fertilizers applied to optimize crop production and improve soil health also supply inputs of soil organic matter (SOM) and nutrients that affect soil microorganisms. In the dairy-intensive Pacific Northwest, dairy manure is stored as slurry mixtures until conditions are appropriate for soil application. During storage, the manure begins...

  • Identifying Differences in the Release of Bioactive Milk Peptides Across the Intestinal Tract Between Term and Preterm Infants

    Creator:
    Beverly, Robert L.
    Abstract:
    Premature birth interrupts the typical development of the human fetus, leaving the infant born with underdeveloped gastrointestinal and immune systems. Preterm infants have reduced stomach acidity, reduced digestive protease activity, more permeable intestinal membranes, impaired innate and adaptive immune response, and poor microbiome development. Due to these factors, preterm infants...
