Lamb growth and pasture production in agrivoltaic production system

Creator:: Andrew, Alyssa C.
Abstract:: Grasslands and croplands located in temperate agro-ecologies are ranked to be the best places to install solar panels for maximum energy production. Therefore, agrivoltaic systems (agricultural production under solar panels) are designed to mutually benefit solar energy and agricultural production in the same location for dual-use of land. However, both...

Spatial and temporal variations in respiration rates and hypoxia on the Oregon shelf

Creator:: Wolf, Megan J.
Abstract:: Inner shelf hypoxia has occurred along the Oregon coast between the latitudes 44ºN and 45ºN since 2002 with increasing duration and intensity, posing a threat to marine life. The objective of this research was to determine whether variation in respiration rate explains spatial and temporal variation in hypoxia. Dissolved oxygen...

Screening for Viral Disease in the OSU Tomato Breeding Program

Creator:: Kershner, Alexandria C.
Abstract:: Disease control is a crucial aspect of plant breeding for researchers as well as commercial producers. After samples from OSU's tomato breeding program tested positive for Columnea latent viroid in a screen done by a private company, secondary testing was done by the USDA laboratory in Corvallis which suggested that...

Sperm depletion and sperm competition in the red-sided garter snake, Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis

Creator:: Kerns, Amelia R.
Abstract:: Sperm competition is the post-copulatory analog of male-male combat, wherein sperm from more than one male coincide in a female’s reproductive tract and compete with one another for fertilization of a limited number of ova. Post-copulatory sexual selection, such as sperm competition, can be a powerful driving force for the...

Studying the most effective modes of marine science communication on plastic pollution in the oceans

Creator:: Burton, Simone A.
Abstract:: The ocean provides many ecosystems services and yet humans have viewed the ocean as a black hole for trash since the 1950s. With recycling not getting to the source of the problem, smarter consumer choices are being targeted, specifically choices centered around the use of plastic. Thus efficient, useful communication...

Improving Bioanalytical Methods of miRNA Analysis and its Applications to Breast Cancer

Creator:: Tran, Victoria
Abstract:: Micro-ribonucleic acids (miRNA) are becoming an increasingly popular topic of research in hopes of discovering newfound biomarkers and/or therapies for numerous types of cancers and diseases. MiRNA are a type of biomolecule contributing to the progression of multiple cancers and diseases, and such biomolecules are called biomarkers. Current RNA-based biosensors...

Population structure and genetic variation in the Hawaiian Opakapaka (Pristipomoides filamentosus): Evidence of a genetic bottleneck in offspring of a captive broodstock

Creator:: Meltvedt, Ariana
Abstract:: The Hawaiian Archipelago is a biologically diverse environment with dynamic interactions between human and biological populations. Political, social, and scientific communities are placing importance on sustainable management of fisheries resources throughout the islands. Many economically important bottomfish in Hawaii have declined in population size due to anthropogenic and environmental pressures....
