Temporal shifts in seabird populations and spatial coherence with prey in the southeastern Bering Sea

Creator:: Suryan, Robert M., Kuletz, Kathy J., Parker-Stetter, Sandra L., Ressler, Patrick H., Renner, Martin, Horne, John K., Farley, Edward V., and Labunski, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: The Bering Sea is a highly productive ecosystem with abundant prey populations in the summer that support some of the largest seabird colonies in the Northern Hemisphere. In the fall, the Bering Sea is used by large numbers of migrants and post-breeding seabirds. We used over 22000 km of vessel-based...

Overexpression of Thiamin Biosynthesis Genes in Rice Increases Leaf and Unpolished Grain Thiamin Content But Not Resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

Creator:: Dong, Wei, Thomas, Nicholas, Ronald, Pamela C., and Goyer, Aymeric
Abstract:: Thiamin diphosphate (ThDP), also known as vitamin B1, serves as an enzymatic cofactor in glucose metabolism, the Krebs cycle, and branched-chain amino acid biosynthesis in all living organisms. Unlike plants and microorganisms, humans are not able to synthesize ThDP de novo and must obtain it from their diet. Staple crops...

Forest Successional and Disturbance Dynamics in the Southern Blue Mountains of Eastern Oregon

Creator:: Johnston, James D.
Abstract:: The application of modern land management practices beginning at the turn of the 20th century is widely believed to have dramatically transformed forest landscapes of the inland Pacific Northwest. Restoring historical conditions to make forests resilient to future climate and disturbance regimes is a major goal of federal forest managers....

Carbon Stocks and Soil Greenhouse Gas Emissions Associated with Forest Conversion to Oil Palm Plantations in Tanjung Puting Tropical Peatlands, Indonesia

Creator:: Novita, Nisa
Abstract:: This dissertation addresses gaps of knowledge associated with how ecosystem carbon stocks and greenhouse gas emissions are affected by land use land cover change in tropical peatlands. This was the first study that paired peat swamp forests with oil palm plantations and analyzed site scale variation on greenhouse gas emissions....

Transient Electron Donor Concentration Experiments for the Determination of Dehalogenation Rate and Kinetic Parameter Shifts in an Anaerobic Microbial Culture

Creator:: Green, Jennifer K.
Abstract:: Trichloroethene (TCE) is a common groundwater contaminant. Bioremediation, or the enhancement of natural microbial processes for the transformation of toxic compounds in soil and groundwater, is an effective solution to this widespread problem. The organisms that transform TCE in the subsurface are sensitive to environmental conditions, especially to the presence...

Contribution of native plasmids to fitness of Pantoea vagans C9-1, a biological control agent for fire blight of apple and pear

Creator:: Klein, Jeannie M.
Abstract:: Pantoea vagans C9-1 (C9-1) is a biological control agent sprayed onto apple and pear trees during bloom for suppression of fire blight, a devastating bacterial disease caused by Erwinia amylovora. Prior bioinformatics studies of C9-1 focused on predicted phenotypes associated with the three native megaplasmids, pPag1, pPag2, and pPag3, and...

Metagenomics and metatranscriptomics of the leaf- and root-associated microbiomes of Zostera marina and Zostera japonica

Creator:: Wojahn, John Michael Adrian
Abstract:: A great deal of research has been focused on the microbiomes of terrestrial angiosperms (flowering plants), but much less research has been performed on the microbiomes of aquatic angiosperms (Turner et al. 2013). Eelgrass beds are extremely productive ecosystems that provide habitat for many marine organisms, such as fish, shellfish,...

Systematic Review of Prevalence, Risks, and Cultural Differences of Fractures and Falls Among Hispanic Communities

Creator:: Chitwood, Abigail
Abstract:: In the United States, falls are the leading cause of fractures and accidental death in the elderly; 70% of these fractures are women. Hispanic women account for a large population in the US, however data on falls and fractures for these women is lacking. The purpose of this systematic review...
