Impacts of Environmental Change on a Newly-characterized Symbiosis between a Novel Bacterial Parasite, Genus Aquarickettsia, and the Coral Acropora cervicornis

Creator:: Klinges, J. Grace
Abstract:: Coral reef ecosystems continue to be significantly altered by disease epizootics, but why some host populations remain resistant while others succumb to outbreaks remains unknown. Research across diverse animal and plant host systems has revealed that disease severity is strongly influenced by host genetics and by environmental influences on both...

Inhibition, gene expression and modeling of ammonia oxidation in biofilms of Nitrosomonas europaea

Creator:: Lauchnor, Ellen Grace
Abstract:: This dissertation explores the physiology and gene expression of the ammonia-oxidizing bacterium Nitrosomonas europaea in surface-associated bacterial communities, or biofilms. Biofilms of N. europaea were cultivated in drip flow reactors for several weeks and gene expression microarrays were used to detect 240 genes differentially expressed between the mature biofilms and...

Growth and development of spring grain species as affected by planting date

Creator:: Armah-Agyeman, Grace
Abstract:: Changes in the federal farm program, in rainfall pattern and quantity, and increased incidence of herbicide resistant weeds and diseases have generated increased interest in spring grains in the Pacific Northwest. However, spring grains have traditionally been treated as minor crops in this region, thus little research has been done...

A Social Constructivist Perspective Connecting Engineering Practice and Engineering Education

Creator:: Panther, Grace C.
Abstract:: Calls for reform within engineering education frequently cite the need to better prepare the future workforce for the imminent challenges that they will face. The focus in preparing students for the workforce is often on the educational system and not on understanding the actual workplace. But if we are to...

Molecular characterization of specificity and activity of the transposable element IS801

Creator:: Richter, Grace Yukiko
Abstract:: 1S801 is a transposable element isolated from Pseudomonas syringae pathovar (pv.) phaseolicola, the causal agent of halo blight of bean. Fragments of the element are present in multiple copies on an indigenous plasmid, pMMC7105, of strain LR781, and have been implicated as sites of homologous recombination leading to imprecise excision...

A study of the effect of an answer-until-correct multiple-choice procedure on mathematics achievement

Creator:: Thompson, Linda Grace
Abstract:: This investigation was designed to investigate the use of an answer-until-correct procedure on multiple-choice quizzes in an independent study mathematics course. This procedure was compared to the standard multiple-choice procedure with respect to student achievement, student anxiety, and test reliability. Using the answer-until-correct procedure students were made immediately aware of...

Investigation of the biomechanics of running and rapid change-of-direction tasks

Creator:: Golden, Grace M.
Abstract:: Rapid change-of-direction tasks have been associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and females are more likely to suffer this injury compared to males. The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the biomechanical behavior of running and three rapid change-of-direction tasks and determine whether sex differences exist across...
