The importance of egg size for the diversity of salmonids

Creator:: Leblanc, Camille A.
Abstract:: Understanding the origin and nature of intra specific biodiversity enables us to better conserve and manage animal populations. Biological diversity is seen at different scales and for different traits such as behavior, morphology, physiology, and life history. Behavior is especially important since behavioral changes are believed to precede changes in...

Developmental mutants of Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Creator:: Shii, Chou Tou
Abstract:: Hybrids with abnormal development were obtained when particular genotypes of Phaseolus vulgaris L. were crossed. The phenotypic aberrations of the F₁s included retarded growth, chlorosis of the trifoliate leaves and the formation of adventitious roots on the hypocotyls. The expression of the abnormalities was dependent on the temperature. At high...

The evolutionary stability of partial migration

Creator:: Ohms, Haley A.
Abstract:: Natural selection, in its most basic form, is described as a process in which traitsincrease or decrease in frequency depending on their fitness, and only the trait withthe highest fitness will remain in the population. Yet, populations rarely have asingle `optimal' trait. The way natural selection maintains this observed variationwithin...

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...

G, a language based on demand-driven stream evaluations

Creator:: Placer, John R.
Abstract:: A programming paradigm can be defined as a model or an approach employed in solving a problem. The results of the research described in this document demonstrate that it is possible to unite several different programming paradigms into a single linguistic framework. The imperative, procedural, applicative, lambda-free, relational, logic and...

Bridging differences : Saudi Arabian students reflect on their educational experiences and share success strategies

Creator:: Shaw, Donna L. (Donna Laible)
Abstract:: This study examines the U.S. educational experiences of Saudi Arabian students. Using qualitative case study and photo-elicitation research methods, this study conducted multiple interviews with 25 Saudi students and explored their perceptions of their American learning environment, how it differed from Saudi Arabia, and the strategies they developed to successfully...

Patterns of natural selection and demography in coastal Oregon coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) populations : evidence from neutral and olfactory receptor gene-linked markers

Creator:: Johnson, Marc Aaron
Abstract:: For Pacific salmon, the evolution of local adaptations depends upon the species' propensity to return, or "home", to natal streams at time of reproduction. Pacific salmon use olfactory cues to guide homing behavior, yet little is known about the genetics of olfaction in salmon. In this study, I use putatively...

The Ecophysiology of Thiamine Deficiency Complex : Evaluating Sources of Thiaminase in Great Lakes Food Webs

Creator:: Evans, Allison N.
Abstract:: Thiamine (vitamin B₁) is required by all living organisms for carbohydrate metabolism and synthesis of amino acids. Thiamine deficiency is responsible for several related classes of early life stage mortality disorders in salmonines, including Thiamine Deficiency Complex (TDC) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, Cayuga Syndrome in the Finger Lakes, and...

An Integrated Approach to Gauge the Effects of Global Climate Change on Headwater Stream Ecosystems

Creator:: Bury, Gwendolynn W.
Abstract:: Climate change is predicted to affect ecosystems, including systems already stressed by human impacts. One ecosystem that is already highly impacted by human land use is the cold headwater stream system of the Pacific Northwest. One method of assessing the function of an ecosystem is by using an indicator species....
