Building a bridge from chromosomes to microtubules in Neurospora crassa

Creator:: Friedman, Steven
Abstract:: DNA is often described as the “blueprint for life”. In eukaryotes this information is contained within linear chromosomes of varying size and number. During cell division, the chromosomes must be faithfully segregated into each daughter cell to avoid disease and sustain life. This process is carried out by the kinetochore...

Recruiting physicians in Oregon : recruitment theory and practical strategies

Creator:: Seifert, Nancy L.
Abstract:: This research sought to identify the reasons physicians attributed for practicing in Oregon, the reasons for relocating out of Oregon, and the reasons for failures in recruiting physicians to Oregon. A random sample survey of 494 Oregon physicians identified the presence of economic and non-economic factors related to the recruitment...

Integrated health systems and the impact on rural hospitals and communities

Creator:: King, Mark T.
Abstract:: PURPOSE Rural hospitals began to make significant changes in the 1990s by becoming integrated with larger health systems. The literature has correlated several key measures that determine the success of integrated health systems. These measures were quality, financial strength, community benefit, physician outcomes, and service changes. The purpose of this...

Shell Boring Polychaetes and the Oregon Oyster Aquaculture Industry: Spatial Distribution, Regulatory Actions, and Stakeholder Engagement

Creator:: Considine, Megan E.
Abstract:: Shell-boring polychaetes pose economic risks for oyster aquaculture industries as they reduce the aesthetic quality of oyster products by creating unsightly mud-filled blisters on the inside of the shell. Recently there has been a reported uptick in infested oysters on commercial farms along the west coast of the US, which...

Ethical Considerations of Transgenic Biotechnology as a Tool to Address Global Food Insecurity : Implementation and Regulation in Developing Countries

Creator:: Stepper, Shelby Ann
Abstract:: Transgenic biotechnology holds enormous potential as a tool to address global food insecurity. Transgenic food crops have been shown to increase food availability and food system security by incorporating disease, pesticide and drought resistance. Production costs of transgenic crops are lower due to the reduced need for costly pesticides and...

Ascorbylation- the biological relevance of covalently bound ascorbic acid

Creator:: Kesinger, Nicholas G.
Abstract:: Ascorbic acid, or vitamin C, is well known as a co-factor for proline-hydroxylase and as an anti-oxidant. However, it is also capable of forming covalent bonds, particularly in the role of a nucleophile, henceforth termed 'ascorbylation'. The ascorbylation of electrophiles can occur under physiological conditions. Furthermore, there are a number...

Identification and Functional Characterization of Genes that Regulate Biomass Production, Floral Development, and Leaf Senescence in Populus Species using Genetic Engineering and Bioinformatics Tools

Creator:: Lu, Haiwei
Abstract:: This dissertation is comprised of four studies on different elements of Populus biotechnology and genomic science: 1) growth improvement by recombinant DNA (rDNA) modification of gibberellin (GA) metabolism; 2) gene editing using zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs); 3) induction of floral sterility by RNA interference (RNAi) of AGAMOUS (AG) gene homologs; and...

Investigating the Mechanisms for the Effects of Nitrate Treatment on Exercise Performance and Energy Metabolism

Creator:: Keller, Rosa M.
Abstract:: Dietary nitrate (NO3-), consumed primarily from leafy green and root vegetables, lowers blood pressure, improves vascular function and aerobic exercise performance. This performance-enhancing effect of nitrate supplementation is largely attributed to the increased bioavailability of the signaling molecule, nitric oxide (NO). Nitric oxide is a ubiquitous free radical signaling molecule...

Concurrent error detection

Creator:: Gorshe, Steven Scott
Abstract:: Concurrent error detection (CED) is the detection of errors or faults in a circuit or data path concurrent with normal operation of that circuit. The general approach for CED is to calculate a check symbol for the inputs to the circuit under operation, predict the check symbol that will result...

Seasonal movement patterns and habitat use of westslope cutthroat trout in two headwater tributary streams of the John Day River

Creator:: Starcevich, Steven J.
Abstract:: Radiotelemetry was used to study the seasonal movements and habitat use of adult westslope cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarki lewisi in Roberts Creek and Rail Creek, headwater tributaries of the John Day River, Oregon, from September 2000 to December 2001. The objectives were to (1) describe adult cutthroat trout life history...
