An Exploration of the Ecological and Geographical Variability of Rhizopus microsporus Clinical and Environmental Isolates

Creator:: Stairs, Brandon S.
Abstract:: Rhizopus microsporus is a globally ubiquitous opportunistic human and plant pathogen that is known to harbor endosymbiotic bacteria. Differences between populations of clinical and environmental R. microsporus isolates have yet to be assessed on a global scale. Whole-genome sequence data were used to explore fungal biology and to assess potential...

Fungal Secondary Metabolism of Basidiobolus meristosporus: a Novel Natural Product Reservoir

Creator:: Trautman, Ian A.
Abstract:: Secondary metabolites (SMs) play an integral role in the life history of most fungal species. Fungal metabolomic studies provide insights into how fungi perform certain ecological functions, how they compete and interact with other organisms, and the breadth of fungal chemodiversity. Fungal SMs have also been utilized for a variety...

Measurement of nitrogenase activity of intact legume symbionts in situ using the acetylene reduction assay

Creator:: Fishbeck, Kathleen Ann
Abstract:: The process of biological nitrogen fixation involves the enzymic reduction of atmospheric nitrogen (N₂) to ammonia (NH₃). The enzyme which catalyzes this reduction, nitrogenase, does not exhibit a high degree of substrate specificity. It also catalyzes the reduction of acetylene (C₂2H₂) to ethylene (C₂H₄). The reduction of C₂H₂ to C₂H₄...

Is Resistance Futile: Examining Fitness Costs Associated with QoI Resistance in E. necator

Creator:: Newbold, Chelsea L.
Abstract:: Quinone outside Inhibitor (QOI) fungicides are one of the most widely used fungicide classes (FRAC 11) in the world. This popularity is the result of their ability to effectively manage a wide array of economically important pathogen species on a broad range of crops. While having mostly preventative activity, some...

Assessing the Trade-Off Between Sustainability and Resiliency of Reinforced Concrete Alternatives in Corrosive Conditions: An LCA-System Dynamics Approach

Creator:: Moreno Rangel, Erick D.
Abstract:: Concrete has been categorized as a key contributor of CO2 (carbon) emissions into the atmosphere. This is mostly associated with the production of ordinary portland cement (OPC). The concrete and cement industries are pursuing a path to reduce their carbon emissions generally in accordance with the climate change goals outlined...

The effect of nitrogen, irrigation, and cultivation on Pinot noir juice and wine composition from the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Wall, Katherine Elizabeth
Abstract:: This study investigated how manipulating vineyard nitrogen status, irrigation levels and cultivation practices would effect nutrient composition, and anthocyanin and phenolic accumulation in Pinot noir juice and wine from a commercial Willamette Valley Oregon vineyard. Pinot noir fruit was sourced from a vineyard trial in the Benton Lane Vineyard, located...

Sequence Analysis and Vegetative Growth in Transgenic Eucalyptus with CRISPR-Cas9-induced Mutations in the Eucalyptus Homologs of the Floral Genes EMBRYO DEVELOPMENT ARREST 33 (EDA33) and TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT AND FUNCTION1 (TDF1)

Creator:: Nahata, Surbhi S.
Abstract:: An impediment to use of exotic and bioengineered trees in many places is their propensity for spread by pollen and/or seeds. Our laboratory has been using gene editing to induce mutations in floral genes as means to impart stable and reliable genetic containment when this is desirable from social (markets,...

Assessment of the vulnerability of Oregon and Washington's natural areas to climate change

Creator:: Margaret, Massie H.
Abstract:: There are currently more than 580 natural areas in Oregon and Washington managed by 20 federal, state, local, and private agencies and organizations. The natural areas network is unparalleled in its representation of diverse ecosystems found in the region and may be an excellent collection of sites for monitoring long-term...

Toward Automated Decision-Making in Power Systems Wide-Area Protection

Creator:: Meier, Richard John
Abstract:: In recent years there have been many improvements in the reliability of critical infrastructure systems. Despite these improvements and despite targeted efforts to improve the operation and control of the electric grid, the power systems industry has seen relatively small advances in this regard. For instance, today's power system is...
