Effects of Anthropogenic Stressors on Seagrass and Coral Microbiomes

Creator:: Wang, Lu
Abstract:: Seagrasses and coral reefs play important roles in nutrient cycling, coastal protection, and maintaining marine biodiversity. However, these coastal marine organisms are declining globally due to anthropogenic stressors, such as rising ocean temperatures, ocean acidification, and eutrophication. These organisms live in close association with their microbiomes, which can be beneficial...

Integrating solute transport, metabolism and processing in stream ecosystems

Creator:: González Pinzón, Ricardo A.
Abstract:: After three decades of active research coupling hydrology and stream ecology, the connection among solute transport, metabolism and processing is still unresolved. These knowledge gaps obscure the functioning of stream ecosystems and how those ecosystems interact with other landscape processes. We must resolve these challenges to wisely manage water resources,...

An Assessment of the “Sweating Sickness” Affecting England During the Tudor Dynasty

Creator:: Wollert, Edwin Del
Abstract:: While historiography and interest in Tudor England at both the popular and specialist levels presents few signs of diminishing, there may nonetheless exist a sense that we have little left to learn about this period and its culture. A notable gap in our knowledge, however, remains regarding the mysterious disease...

Shrub epiphyte communities in relation to stand management in forests of western Oregon

Creator:: Rosso, Abbey L.
Abstract:: This dissertation describes the epiphyte communities on tall shrubs in forests of western Oregon, with a focus on potential effects of management practices on these communities. Shrubs and other hardwoods have recently gained recognition as hotspots of diversity for epiphytes in young conifer forests of the region. Yet little is...

Status and habitat use of Columbian white-tailed deer in Douglas County, Oregon

Creator:: Smith, Winston Paul
Abstract:: A study conducted May 1978-December 1980 determined that the present geographic range of Columbian white-tailed deer, Odocoileus virginianus leucurus, (CWTD) in Douglas County, Oregon encompassed 1199km2. The area was predominately a Quercus woodland community, typical of the Interior Valley Zone of western Oregon. The CWTD distribution was not contiguous throughout...

A Promising Approach for Preventing of Diet-Induced Obesity and Fatty Liver Using Tetrahydroxanthohumol, A Synthetic Derivative of Xanthohumol

Creator:: Zhang, Yang
Abstract:: Obesity and metabolic syndrome (MetS) affect over 1.9 billion adults and 12.7 million youth in the US. If all of today’s obese American youth become obese adults, the total societal costs over their lifetime may exceed $1.1 trillion. We show that feeding rodents a high-fat diet supplemented with xanthohumol (XN)...

Using the Microbial Tree of Life to Describe Mammalian Health and Disease

Creator:: Arnold, Holly Kristin
Abstract:: The past decade of research has potentiated a revolution in our understanding of mammalian health and evolution by revealing that the gut microbiome plays a central role in mammalian physiology. Our ability to unlock this potential hinges upon the identification of specific groups of gut microbes that elicit effects on...

Control of p53 tumor suppressor and peroxiredoxin activity through shifts incellular redox balance

Creator:: Stoner, Christopher S.
Abstract:: Aerobic organisms have evolved many sensory mechanisms that allow response to oxidants in the environment. One area of interest is the relationship between the activity of the tumor suppressor protein p53 and the redox state of thioredoxin. Human p53 activity is severely compromised in budding yeast lacking thioredoxin reductase. Evidence...

Studies of immunological and molecular biological techniques with infectious laryngotracheitis virus of chickens

Creator:: Abbas, Ferhat, 1962-
Abstract:: Monoclonal antibodies (MCA) produced against infectious laryngotracheitis virus (ILTV) of chickens reacted in western blotting experiments with several different ILTV protein bands in the absence of tunicamycin which inhibits carbohydrate synthesis. Most of the MCA lost their reactivity in western blotting experiments when extracts of tunicamycin-treated ILTV CELC were used,...

Cryptogam communities in forest and steppe ecosystems of Oregon, USA

Creator:: Root, Heather T.
Abstract:: I focus on addressing knowledge gaps relating to management of cryptogams in Oregon's public lands in Pseudotsuga menziesii-Tsuga heterophylla forests on the west side of the Cascade Range and dryland steppe in the Cascade Range's rainshadow. While a great deal of research has illustrated the importance of late-successional forests for...
