Evaluation of fruit size and seed number in triploid and tetraploid Malus spp.

Creator:: Dempster, Jonathan and Contreras, Ryan N.
Abstract:: Fruit diameter of triploid and tetraploid Malus spp. accessions were evaluated based on ploidy and seed number. Pome size in relation to seed number and ploidy level was evaluated using Tukeys HSD in R. With 95% confidence, pome diameter was not impacted by seed number in these selections (Tukey’s HSD...

Optical Analysis of Titania : Band Gaps of Brookite, Rutile and Anatase

Creator:: Lance, Ryan A.
Abstract:: The optical transition in high-fraction polymorphs of titania (TiO2) were investigated to determine the band gap behavior of the most common polymorphs—brookite, rutile, and anatase—the values of which are varied in the literature. The direct optical band gaps of brookite, rutile, and anatase, were determined to be 3.37(7)eV, 3.41(11)eV and...

Electrical Transport Measurements Show Intrinsic Doping and Hysteresis in Graphene p-n Junction Devices

Creator:: Plunkett, Garrett R.
Abstract:: Understanding the electrical transport properties of graphene provides a basis for determining its future as a potential semiconducting device that can be used for the next generation of transistors and photodetectors. Graphene p-n junctions can also function as field effect transistors, and thus are a logical starting point for I-V...

Epifaunal density differences on coralline algae compared to fleshy algae in the Yachats, Oregon intertidal community

Creator:: Gani, Christopher D.
Abstract:: Ocean acidification has led to many issues regarding the decline of calcifying organisms, such as coralline algae. Acidified sea water inhibits precipitation of CaCO3 that affects the structure and growth of coralline algae. Therefore, non-calcifying algae may outcompete calcifying algae in the intertidal systems with future acidic ocean condition. Variety...
