Stephen Biko's Rhetorical Vision of Black Consciousness

Creator:: Fergusson, Julie K.
Abstract:: Stephen Biko was a black leader in South Africa who died in police custody on September 12, 1977. Biko's death echoed within the Republic of South Africa and around the world, showing that racial tensions in that country were severe. At his death he was a hero to the black...

Aspects of the foraging ecology of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) in Frederick Sound and Stephens Passage, Southeast Alaska

Creator:: Szabo, Andrew R.
Abstract:: The North Pacific humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae) population has been increasing at an average annual rate of ~6% since the early 1990s. In northern Southeast Alaska alone, there are now more whales than estimated for the entire North Pacific several decades ago. An understanding of how this growing population is...

Water quality of runoff from flood irrigated pasture in the Klamath Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Ciotti, Damion C.
Abstract:: Runoff from agricultural lands into Upper Klamath Basin rivers and lakes can cause water quality problems affecting fish and wildlife. Excessive eutrophication in Upper Klamath Lake is linked to high nutrient input (particularly phosphorus) stemming from both lake sediments and watershed tributaries. On a unit area load basis the Wood...

Soil respiration, carbon and nitrogen leaching, and nitrogen availability in response to harvest intensity and competing vegetation control in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Slesak, Robert A.
Abstract:: Management practices following forest harvest can affect long-term soil productivity through alteration of soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) pools, but processes contributing to change are poorly understood. I assessed effects of three levels of logging-debris retention in combination with initial or annual applications of competing vegetation control (CVC) following...

Genetic factors that provide adult plant resistance against Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici to wheat cultivar 'Stephens' in a multilocation analysis.

Creator:: Vazquez, Maria Dolores
Abstract:: Stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) has been receiving increased attention in the USA since the appearance of more virulent races detected in the past decade. These races caused yield losses even in areas where the disease previously was rarely detected. Host plant resistance is the most cost effective...

Some potential mechanisms for finely-tuned regulation of phospholipase C-β isozymes : studies of dimerization and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate activation

Creator:: Zhang, Yong
Abstract:: Phospholipase C-β (PLC-β) isozymes are key effectors in G protein-coupled signaling pathways. Prior research suggested that some isoforms of PLC-β may exist and function as dimers, but little is known about dimerization of PLC-β. Data from coimmunoprecipitation assays of differentially-tagged PLC-β constructs and sizeexclusion chromatography of native PLC-β support homodimerization...

Outliers: The Unusual Characteristics of Marine Carbon-Oxidizing Bacterial Cells Adapted to Oligotrophic Conditions

Creator:: Noell, Stephen E.
Abstract:: Oligotrophic bacteria are adapted to low nutrient concentrations. As most of the ocean is oligotrophic (low in nutrients), oligotrophic bacteria thrive in the ocean and make up the majority of planktonic cells. Because of this, oligotrophs are crucial to oceanic nutrient cycles. However, marine oligotrophic bacteria are dwarfed by their...

Computational Elucidation of the Regulatory SNPs in the Non-Coding Regions of the Human Genome

Creator:: Yao, Yao
Abstract:: We describe a series of novel computational models, CERENKOV (Computational Elucidation of the REgulatory NonKOding Variome) and its successors CERENKOV2, CERENKOV3, and Convolutional CERENKOV3, for discriminating regulatory single nucleotide polymorphisms (rSNPs) from non-regulatory SNPs within non-coding genetic loci. The CERENKOV models are designed for recognizing rSNPs in the context of...

How Do Parasites Infect Salmon? Comparative Transcriptomics Reveal Myxozoan Adaptations for Parasitism

Creator:: Americus, Benjamin
Abstract:: The phylum Cnidaria contains three main branches: Anthozoa (corals, sea anemones) Medusozoa (jellyfish, hydra), and Endocnidozoa. This latter branch is characterized by parasitism and contains the microscopic fish-parasites Myxozoa. Myxozoa are highly simplified, consisting of only a few cell types, however they have retained the nematocyst stinging cells and complex...

Streamwater Microbial Communities as Hydrologic Observation: Insights Gained from Investigation of a Novel Dataset

Creator:: URycki, Dawn R.
Abstract:: Interactions and feedbacks among climate change effects and continued human impacts will exacerbate impacts to water resources in complex ways. An urgent imperative of the hydrologic community is to understand the response of hydrologic systems to these perturbations, thus contributing to long-term sustainability of water resources in an uncertain future....
