Interactions of Amphorophora agathonica Hottes with raspberry viruses and resistant red and black raspberry

Creator:: Lightle, Danielle
Abstract:: In recent years, red raspberry production in Washington and British Columbia has been severely limited by a newly emerged virus complex that causes symptoms of crumbly fruit. The complex is comprised of three viruses: Raspberry bushy dwarf virus (RBDV), Raspberry leaf mottle virus (RLMV) and Raspberry latent virus (RpLV). Both...

Use of Controlled Blasting to Quantify the Dynamic, In-Situ, Nonlinear Inelastic Response of Soils

Creator:: Jana, Amalesh
Abstract:: The seismic response of deep deposits of liquefiable and cyclic-softening susceptible soils has presented the geotechnical profession with significant engineering challenges. Strong ground motions may serve to soften soils under cyclic shear, trigger liquefaction, and produce damaging displacements as a consequence. This study improves the understanding of the in-situ, nonlinear,...

Studies toward the total synthesis of (+)-providencin

Creator:: Jana, Somnath
Abstract:: Studies toward the total synthesis of (+)-providencin (1), a highly oxygenated cembranoid dipterpene with a unique bicyclo[12.2.0]hexadecane skeleton and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediates 320 and 332 which contain all of the carbon atoms of 1. In a first generation approach...

Faculty Perceptions and Realities Informing Curricular and Instructional Improvements in Postsecondary STEM Education: Development of Transdisciplinary Curricula, Notions of Successful Students, and the Use of Student-Learning Data

Creator:: Lenhart, Cindy A.
Abstract:: Research has confirmed a lack of diversity and persistence of underrepresented populations in the STEM fields. Recruiting and retaining more women and people of color into STEM fields has long been a goal of higher education, per a notable lack of women and people of color who enter and complete...

Characterization and Mediation of K-12 Science Teachers' Implementation of the Next Generation Science Standards

Creator:: Rogan-Klyve, Allyson M.
Abstract:: The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) are a recent set of standards that leverage decades of research to present an innovative and coherent image for K 12 science education in the United States. Major themes in the NGSS include the intertwining of learning and doing science, addressing connections across scientific...

Marking, movement, and management of Drosophila suzukii in Oregon berry crops

Creator:: Klick, Jimmy
Abstract:: Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae) are small invasive flies that in the past five years (2009-2014) invaded berry and stone fruit production regions in Europe and the Americas. Evolutionary adaptations, biological traits, and anthropogenic factors have contributed to its current status as a global pest. Females oviposit eggs into ripe...

Enhancing pest mite biological control by Typhlodromus pyri (Acari: Phytoseiidae) in Pacific Northwest vineyards

Creator:: Gadino, Angela Noelle
Abstract:: The predatory mite Typhlodromus pyri (Acari: Phytoseiidae) is the predominant species in cool climate Pacific Northwest vineyards and a principal predator of pest mites including the grapevine rust mite Calepitrimerus vitis (Acari: Eriophyidae). In recent years vineyards have been experiencing C. vitis population outbreaks leading to increased economic damage from...

Semantic embodied navigation : developing agents that navigate from language and vision

Creator:: Krantz, Jacob
Abstract:: Autonomous robotic agents are on their way to becoming in-home personal assistants, construction assistants, and warehouse workers. The degree of autonomy of such systems is reflected by the manner in which we specify goals to them; the abstraction of low-level commands to high-level goals goes hand-in-hand with increased autonomy. In...

Fostering relevance in introductory biology courses : an empirical study of the effects of a socio-scientific issues-based course on student motivation through the lens of self-determination theory

Creator:: Hewitt, Krissi M.
Abstract:: There has been a rapid increase in technological advances in the biological sciences that has contributed to an increase in societal issues that require attention from both scientists and citizens. Consequently, there is a need for the development of biologically literate citizens who have the ability to use their knowledge...
