Seed quality and plant establishment studies of seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.)

Creator:: Baker, Stanley D.
Abstract:: Seashore paspalum (Paspalum vaginatum Sw.) is an important warm-season perennial turfgrass, known for its tolerance to salinity. Turfgrass is used for homes, municipalities, sod farms, resorts, and sports fields. Seashore paspalum has historically been planted in sub-tropical and tropical climates because of its heat tolerance. Seashore paspalum could become an...

Effects of 12 months of voluntary alcohol self-administration on intracortical bone remodeling in a rhesus macaque model

Creator:: Gaddini, Gino W.
Abstract:: Background: Alcohol is a nonessential nutrient widely consumed throughout the world. Chronic alcohol abuse is associated with numerous adverse skeletal effects. However, prior to this study, the effects of alcohol abuse on intracortical bone remodeling in an animal model had not been investigated. Reduced intracortical bone remodeling could impair repair...

The Role of Bone Marrow Adipose Tissue in Bone Loss During Spaceflight and Simulated Spaceflight in Rodents

Creator:: Keune, Jessica Ann
Abstract:: The reduction in mechanical load imparted on the body during spaceflight presents unique physiological challenges. One detrimental and seemingly unavoidable response to microgravity is rapid bone loss. This adaptation is hazardous not only to astronaut health, but to the success of long-duration exploration-class missions. Skeletal adaptation to spaceflight in astronauts...

Biology and management of Meloidogyne chitwoodi using oxamyl on potato in the western United States

Creator:: David, Nicholas L.
Abstract:: Field trials were conducted during 2001 to 2003 to investigate soil population dynamics of Meloidogyne chitwoodi, tuber symptom suppression using oxamyl, and post-harvest tuber symptom development on short-season potato varieties Russet Norkotah and Russet Nugget (San Luis Valley only). The experiments were located in the San Luis Valley in Colorado,...

Effects of Error-Management Training on Veterinary Student Performance in Technical Skills Training

Creator:: Meritet, Danielle M.
Abstract:: Conventional training methods in most medical fields seek to avoid errors, framing them as negative consequences instead of as learning opportunities. Error-management training (EMT) contrasts with conventional methods by explicitly encouraging trainees to make errors through low-stakes training modules in an effort to alter perspectives on errors, utilizing them as...

The Relationship Between IGF-1 and Bone Turnover in a Non-Human Primate Model of Voluntary Alcohol Consumption

Creator:: Sattgast, Lara H.
Abstract:: Alcohol is a widely consumed, nonessential, bioactive nutrient with end-organ effects on the skeleton. Moderate levels of alcohol consumption are generally associated with increased bone mineral density (BMD), whereas higher intake levels result in reduced bone formation, bone loss, and increased risk for osteoporotic fracture. Given the negative impact of...

Examining the Effects of High Vitamin E Diets on the Rodent Skeleton

Creator:: Kasper, Katherine G.
Abstract:: The primary goal of my study was to evaluate the effects of high dietary vitamin E on the rodent skeleton. The outcomes from my study assess the impact of high intakes of vitamin E and increased concentrations of its metabolite, carboxy ethyl hydroxy chromanol (CEHC), on bone turnover and skeletal...

Adoptive Transfer of Purified Hematopoietic Stem Cells Protects Against Bone Loss Following Lethal Radiation

Creator:: Deyhle, Richard Thomas, Jr.
Abstract:: The objectives of this research is to advance human health by evaluating interventions to minimize the detrimental effects of acute whole body gamma irradiation on bone metabolism, bone architecture and bone reconstruction using a mouse model. Total body irradiation (TBI) followed by adoptive transfer of bone marrow from donor animals...

Hypothalamic Leptin Gene Therapy Does Not Prevent Ovariectomy-Induced Bone Loss in Rats

Creator:: Jackson, Melanie A.
Abstract:: Post-menopausal women are at an increased risk for osteoporosis due to increased bone resorption associated with estrogen deficiency. Subcutaneous administration of leptin, a hormone produced primarily by adipocytes, attenuates bone loss in the ovariectomized (ovx) rat, an animal model for post-menopausal bone loss. Leptin has both direct peripheral and indirect...

Bees Associated with Linden (Tilia spp.) Trees and their Susceptibility to Toxic Sugars in Nectar

Creator:: Argoti, Adriana G.
Abstract:: Bees provide critical pollination services to diverse agricultural crops, native plants and trees. Globally, there are reports of bee declines which have been attributed to diseases, exposure to pesticides and changes in land use that are believed to have led to a reduction in foraging resources and nesting habitats for...
