Telomere Binding Protein Antagonists for Stem Cell Therapy

Creator:: VanGarde, Aurora
Abstract:: Understanding the mechanisms through which stem cells self-renew is important for the development of new therapies to repair and restore damaged tissue. This research explores possible mechanisms of telomere mimic action and seeks to validate a new assay for evaluating telomere binding antagonists and studying the effects of telomere binding...

Soil solarization effects on plant growth variables of field-grown tree saplings

Creator:: Fraher, Simon
Abstract:: Solarization could be an alternative to chemical controls for soil pathogens and weeds, and it may also influence plant growth factors. Biomass, shoot length, and AMF colonization were examined in red oak (Quercus rubra), Mazzard cherry (Prunus avium), and hawthorn (Crataegus monogyna) at J. Frank Schmidt & Son Co. nursery...

Soil solarization effects on plant growth variables of field-grown tree saplings

Creator:: Fraher, Simon
Abstract:: Soil solarization has been used throughout the world, but its effect on plant growth variables in ornamental tree saplings in the Willamette Valley are not well documented. Solarization could be an alternative to chemical controls for soil pathogens and weeds, and it may also influence plant growth factors. This study...

Urban Business Rodent Control Behavior and Attitudes Toward Rodents and Impact on Non-target Wildlife (Presentation), Urban business attitudes regarding rodents, rodent control methods, and impact on wildlife

Creator:: Arndt, Eva
Abstract:: Birds of prey and carnivorous mammals feed on small birds, rodents and other small mammals. Humans perceive many of the prey animals of these predators as well as the predators themselves, as “pests”, and seek to control them. Control methods for these unwanted pests, particularly rodents, have the potential to...

Relative heat sensitivities and the potential for soil solarization to remediate nursery beds infested with Phytophthora spp.

Creator:: Weidman, Clara Suzanne
Abstract:: Infestations of container nursery beds by Phytophthora spp. can be persistent and costly. One method of disinfestation that does not require the use of chemicals is soil solarization, which captures energy from the sun to heat soil and thermally inactivate target pathogens. In laboratory temperature gradient experiments, I investigated the...

Evaluation of Fusarium proliferatum Mycotoxin Profiles in Infected Garlic Cloves

Creator:: Rossi, Francesca
Abstract:: Fusarium proliferatum is a fungus found in soils which produces the mycotoxin group known as fumonisins. Of human concern due to hepato-, nephro- and neurotoxicity, the threat of fumonisins lies within several food items, including corn, wheat sorghum, asparagus and, more recently, garlic. Manifesting as ““garlic rot”,” F. proliferatum infection...

Fiction's fatal flaw : misrepresentation of the average scientist

Creator:: Basler, Emily
Abstract:: Fiction facilitates the attribution of unrealistic character traits to scientists, and skews general understanding of the scientific process-- a fatal flaw resulting in self-doubt within undergraduate scientists, and apprehension and distrust in several communities. Misconceptions and the absence of significant ideas were identified by analyzing novels within the “Lab Lit”...

Development of a diagnostic assay for Phytophthora ramorum lineage detection

Creator:: Roig-Paul, Mireia
Abstract:: Phytophthora ramorum is the causal agent of Sudden Oak Death (SOD), which is an economically and environmentally important disease causing up to 80% mortality of tanoaks in Pacific Northwest coastal forests (LeBoldus et al., 2022). There are currently four clonal lineages in the United States and Europe, named North America...

Impacts of Environmentally Responsible Engineering (ERE) Concepts in a New First Year Engineering Program

Creator:: Smith, Madelyn
Abstract:: This full research paper explores two factors of increasing importance for first-year university engineering curricula: sustainability and diversity. Over the past fifteen years, many universities in the United States have adjusted their engineering programs in response to these two values expressed by industry, professional organizations, and the Accreditation Board for...

Transcendence: May Time Take These Bones, They Are Not Mine - A Poetry Collection

Creator:: Bayly, Alice M.
Abstract:: In ethnographic research, an anthropologist becomes integrated in the community of their study. Throughout this process, the anthropologist adapts to the cultural practices and the language of this community, becoming intimately connected to them. Ethnography communicates, through the anthropologist’s experience, crucial practices, tensions, and values discovered during research. However, it...
