Perspectives on a Community Forest : A Practice in Nature Writing

Creator:: Hadella, Lucia C.
Abstract:: The McDonald Forest is one of the Oregon State University Research Forests, owned by the College of Forestry and located approximately seven miles northwest of the heart of Corvallis. I took four hikes on the McDonald Forest at four major recreation destinations: Oak Creek, Dimple Hill, Lewisburg Saddle, and Peavy...

Under the Sea: An evaluation of the establishment and continued effectiveness of the Galápagos National Park and Marine Reserve in Ecuador

Creator:: Asson, Danielle C.
Abstract:: Conservation of natural resources has become a new watchword of the scientific community. While many terrestrial ecosystems are well protected, marine ecosystems have only recently come to the forefront. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been introduced as a means of protecting biodiversity, commercial stocks, and ecosystem services. There are many...

Generation of expression plasmids to study the function of the PRC2 subunit Suz12 in Fusarium graminearum

Creator:: Park, Catherine
Abstract:: The Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) catalyzes genome transcription repression through the methylation of lysine residue 27 in the amino terminal region of histone 3 (H3K27me1/2/3) [2], [7]. PRC2 is made up of three highly conserved core subunits: Kmt6, Eed, and Suz12. Accurate distribution of PRC2 is essential for proper...

Metagenomics and metatranscriptomics of the leaf- and root-associated microbiomes of Zostera marina and Zostera japonica

Creator:: Wojahn, John Michael Adrian
Abstract:: A great deal of research has been focused on the microbiomes of terrestrial angiosperms (flowering plants), but much less research has been performed on the microbiomes of aquatic angiosperms (Turner et al. 2013). Eelgrass beds are extremely productive ecosystems that provide habitat for many marine organisms, such as fish, shellfish,...

Optimizing shared mooring and anchoring strength for floating offshore wind turbine arrays

Creator:: Devin, Michael C.
Abstract:: Energy from offshore wind could provide substantial power generation if further utilized. One area of significant research focus is in developing floating offshore wind devices, which would allow for wind energy to be gathered in deep water where driven monopile turbines are infeasible. However, floating offshore wind is not currently...

Undergraduate Generalization of Lists and Tables to Solve Introductory Combinatorial Problems

Creator:: Aimonetto, Michael C.
Abstract:: In this study I viewed video and corresponding transcripts of two students solving introductory combinatorial problems. Using an adapted version of Harel’s (2008) concepts of Result Pattern Generalization and Process Pattern Generalization, I analyzed the work done by the two students. Both students primarily worked through the problem How many...

The role of the putative transcription factor DIS10 in PRC2-mediated gene silencing

Creator:: Jackson, Kendra K.
Abstract:: PRC2 (Polycomb Repressive Complex 2) mediated gene silencing plays an important role in cell differentiation, stem cell plasticity, and tumor suppression. In fungi, it is also involved in pathogenicity. The catalytic subunit, KMT6, trimethylates lysine 27 on histone h3 (H3K27me3) at loci targeted for silencing. In animals, PRC1 and PRC2...

A Panel of Histone H3 Mutations to Investigate Centromere Maintenance and Gene Silencing

Creator:: Geisler, Mark S.
Abstract:: Histones, as part of nucleosomes, are responsible for DNA packaging in chromosomes. They also affect DNA expression by a multitude of post-translational modifications, especially prevalent on the amino terminus of histones. Co-activator protein complexes “write”, “read”, or “erase” histone modifications, and in balance determine which sections of DNA are free...

Mutation of Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) kmt6 to Probe in vivo Function in Fusarium

Creator:: Josephson, Brian
Abstract:: Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) is a histone methyltransferase that initiates facultative heterochromatin formation by trimethylating histone H3 on lysine 27 (H3K27me3). Mutations within its three primary subunits, KMT6, EED, and SUZ12, result in inherited diseases and sporadic cancers. In the fungus Fusarium graminearum, deletion of the gene encoding the...

Effects of Long-term Use of Ankle Taping on Balance

Creator:: McGregor, Stephanie
Abstract:: Regular ankle taping is commonly used to prevent ankle sprains, but the effects of its long-term use are not fully understood. This study examined the effects of ankle taping on balance in athletes who regularly tape their ankles versus those who do not. Fourteen collegiate gymnasts’ ability to balance on...
