Characterization of the genomic islands from tetracycline-resistant Chlamydia suis

Creator:: Dugan, Jae
Abstract:: Tetracycline (Tet)-resistant strains of Chlamydia suis were isolated from swine farms in the Midwest. The isolation of the resistant strains was significant because Tet is an antibiotic used to treat infections by veterinarians and doctors. One of the tetracycline (Tet)-resistant strains, R19, was able to survive in Tet up to...

Investigating Protein-lipid-membrane Interactions in Plant Cells using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation

Creator:: Tao, Kai
Abstract:: The overall focus of this thesis is on the distribution of specific lipids and membrane proteins of the external and internal membranes of plant cells, in the context of the roles that those lipids and proteins may play in microbe-plant interactions. The work includes the development of several new tools,...

Cultural controls for suppressing Phytophthora cinnamomi root rot of blueberry

Creator:: Yeo, John R.
Abstract:: Phytophthora cinnamomi is a soilborne pathogen that causes root rot disease of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.). When new installations of susceptible blueberry cultivars are infected with P. cinnamomi, plants often fail to grow significant new tissue, greatly reducing yields over the life of the planting. Chemical fungicides are available...

A Bayesian approach to nonresponse in sample surveys

Creator:: Smouse, Evan Paul
Abstract:: A common problem in postal surveys of human populations arises when some of the sampled people fail to respond to the questionnaire. The problem is that the answers provided by the respondents may not be typical of the answers the nonrespondents would provide if these had been solicited more successfully....

Quorum-sensing-controlled public goods in Pseudomonas aeruginosa : regulation and application

Creator:: Mellbye, Brett L.
Abstract:: Cell-to-cell communication by chemical signals, termed quorum sensing (QS), is a common regulatory scheme in the microbial world. Pseudomonas aeruginosa¸ an opportunistic pathogen of burn wounds and cystic fibrosis lungs, uses QS to control the expression of hundreds of genes, particularly those necessary for population level benefits such as biofilm...

The timber harvesting behavior of family forest owners

Creator:: Butler, Brett J.
Abstract:: To increase our understanding of the timber harvesting behavior of family forest owners, I developed theoretical and empirical timber harvesting models for family forest owners in the southeastern United States. An individual-choice model was the basis for the models. Family forest owners were modeled as utility-maximizers who made harvesting decisions...

An Integrated Approach to the Investigation of Age, Growth and Population Dynamics of Burrowing Thalassinidean Shrimps in a U.S. West Coast Estuary

Creator:: Bosley, Katelyn Marie
Abstract:: Two indigenous species of burrowing shrimp inhabit and often dominate the intertidal zone of estuaries along the US West Coast, the ghost shrimp, Neotrypaea californiensis, and the blue mud shrimp, Upogebia pugettensis. Both species are considered ecosystem engineers and play a role in maintaining estuarine health and ecosystem function. They...

Ruminal Biodegradation of Heterocyclic Toxic Compounds

Creator:: Tanaree, Dan D.
Abstract:: Cyclic nitramines are a class of compounds that include most of the commonly used explosives today. These are among the most common toxicants released into the environment as a result of human activity, generated on military ranges, battlefields, and production sites. Of these, hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5- triazine (RDX) is of particular interest,...

Blended Teaching in School-based Agriculture Education: An Exploration of Teacher Beliefs and Practices

Creator:: Milliken, D. Brett
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of school-based agriculture education (SBAE) teachers who self-identified as blended pedagogues. This study specifically focused on SBAE teachers' beliefs and how those beliefs influence their blended teaching classroom practice. Teacher beliefs are personal, subjective, and temporally and contextually stable....
