Physiological effects of non-nutritive sugars on the survivorship and fecundity of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae)

Creator:: Tang, Siew Bee
Abstract:: Spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii, is an economically damaging pest on small fruits. The estimated economic impact is hundreds of millions of dollars annually in the U.S. alone, and increasing every year. Current control of SWD relies heavily on chemical insecticides which have many negative impacts on environmental and...

Deployment Planning for Multiple Marsupial Robots

Creator:: Lee, Chris (Yu Hsuan)
Abstract:: Multi-robot systems are versatile and extremely capable of exploration tasks in complex environments. Increasingly sophisticated planners, which incorporate new features of a multi-robot system, are necessary for the operation of the systems. Marsupial robots are multi-robot systems consisting of a carrier robot (e.g., a ground vehicle), which is highly capable...

Non-nutritive Sugars as a Management Tactic for Spotted-Wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii) and Non-Target Effects

Creator:: Price, Briana E.
Abstract:: With confirmation of non-nutritive sugar, erythritol, having insecticidal properties to Dipterans, this thesis research focuses on use of erythritol as a human-safe management tool for small berry and cherry pest, Drosophila suzukii, commonly referred to as spotted-wing drosophila. Drosophila suzukii is a destructive invasive fruit fly from Asia with an...

Exploring the New Visual Environment as a Strategy to Facilitate Successful Student Adjustment to Culture Shock Associated with Study Abroad

Creator:: DeVito, Laura
Abstract:: This thesis seeks to explore how visual cues in the new environment affect Chinese international students studying abroad in the United States. Through open-ended interviews, Photovoice, and focus groups, Chinese international students shared their perspectives on their orientation, residence, campus places, color association, and on-campus place preferences. During the study,...

Method development for characterizing the hydrophobicity of engineered nanoparticles

Creator:: Lee, Fang Yu
Abstract:: Characterizing the hydrophobicity of nanoparticles can help us understand their fate and transport in the environment, as well as how nanoparticles may interact with biological systems. However, contact angle and partition coefficient have limitations in measuring the hydrophobicity of nanoparticles, thus promising methods to measuring the hydrophobicity of nanoparticles are...
