Investigating the effects of harvest time and light exposure on cannabinoid potency in industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa) using UPLC-diode array detection

Creator:: Saindon, Ashley L.
Abstract:: Five varieties of industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa) were grown in the field in Imperial Valley, CA, USA in order to determine whether light conditions or harvest times influence cannabinoid content. A total of 16 cannabinoids were investigated in this study: Delta-9-tetrahydrocannibinol (THC-d9), Delta-9-tetrahydrocannibinolic acid (THC-a), Cannabidiol (CBD), Cannabidiolic acid (CBD-a),...

Molecular Analysis of Tomato Seed Germination and Tomato Production in Almería, Spain

Creator:: Nguyen, Theresa T.
Abstract:: Tomato is considered to be one of the most important vegetables for its value as a source of nutrients and antioxidants, and as a model crop for biological research, including seed biology. In this thesis, tissue-specific gene expression and its regulation in tomato seeds were analyzed to understand the mechanisms...

The role of molecular architecture in the hydration properties of brewers’ spent grain

Creator:: Yang, Jasmin S.
Abstract:: An emerging strategy to reducing food waste is converting food processing byproducts to nutritious and inexpensive food ingredients. A relevant food processing waste stream is brewers’ spent grain (BSG), the primary byproduct of beer production. BSG is a promising candidate as a food ingredient because of its high protein and...

An analysis on the population genetic structure of Ariolimax columbianus around Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Brune, Maximillian A.
Abstract:: As the world’s population continues to increase every year, a greater proportion of people are living in urban environments. This process of global urbanization has been previously shown to affect evolution of plants and animals by restricting gene flow, increasing genetic drift, and causing divergent selection between rural and urban...

Are they what they eat? A stable GIT microbiome characterized in P. resecata

Creator:: Gustafson, Tarah N.
Abstract:: Intertidal herbivores, such as isopods, help regulate and contribute to nutrient cycling and organic carbon flow through the trophic levels in estuaries and coastal ecosystems. Though much is known about the microbiomes of macrophyte leaves that serve as the primary food source for isopods, and (to a lesser extent) the...

Changes in Microbial Extracellular Enzyme Activity in Pacific Northwest Old-Growth Forest Soils After Wildfire

Creator:: Hughes, Abby
Abstract:: The soil microbiome drives nutrient transformation in forest soils and plays a critical role in the carbon (C) cycle of these ecosystems. Wildfires cause significant disturbance to ecosystems and are known to alter C sources available to microbes in forest soils. Summer wildfires in the Pacific Northwest are of growing...

Creation of At This Point, an undergraduate-focused science podcast

Creator:: Puoci, Victor (Tori) M.
Abstract:: At This Point, an undergraduate-focused science podcast, works to expand the accessibility of science by exploring topics that, at this point, may seem too complex to understand. This thesis project describes the process of creating At This Point and demonstrates how the podcast fulfills the criteria of effective science communication....

The Mathematics of Critical Shifts in Ecological Networks with Alternative Stable State Theory, A Potential Framework for Early Warning Indicators

Creator:: Kupperman, Michael D.
Abstract:: A long running problem in mathematical biology is the prediction of extinction events, a specialized case of the larger global stability problem found in differential equations and dynamical systems theory. A central technical question is how to introduce the randomness observed in real ecological systems not accounted for in deterministic...

Determination of the relationships between functional genomic content and phenotypic effects of probiotic supplementation on metabolic disease: the first steps toward an efficient pipeline for annotation and analysis

Creator:: Moulton, Zoe
Abstract:: Probiotics are defined as “live microorganisms that, when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit to the host”. A wide variety of putative probiotics exist on the market; however, clinical evidence of their efficacy is lacking. Probiotics have been previously used in the treatment of metabolic diseases like type...

UVB Radiation Affects the Quality of the Female Sexual Attractiveness Pheromone of the Red-Sided Garter Snake

Creator:: Vigeland, Anna E.
Abstract:: In this study, pheromone and skin lipid samples collected from red-sided garter snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis parietalis) were exposed directly to either full-spectrum light or full-spectrum plus UVB light. In addition, female and male snakes were exposed to daily doses of either full-spectrum or full-spectrum and UVB light, after which the...
