Genetic Identification of Chinook Salmon: Stock-Specific Distributions of Juveniles along the Washington and Oregon Coasts

Creator:: Teel, David J., Burke, Brian J., Kuligowski, David R., Morgan, Cheryl A., and Van Doornik, Donald M.
Abstract:: We used microsatellite DNA data and genetic stock identification methods to delineate the temporal and spatial distributions of juvenile Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha occupying coastal habitats extending from central Oregon to northern Washington. Juveniles were collected in trawl surveys conducted during spring, summer, and autumn over 15 years. Distributions (mean...

A new species of Bembidion (Ecuadion) from Ecuador (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Bembidiini), with a key to members of the georgeballi species group

Creator:: Maddison, David R. and Toledano, Luca
Abstract:: A new species of ground beetle, Bembidion ricei, is described from the Andes mountains of Ecuador east of Quito. It belongs to the georgeballi species group of subgenus Ecuadion, and is most similar to Bembidion georgeballi. A key to the species of the group is provided.

Simulating dynein’s powerstroke using Brownian dynamics

Creator:: Capek, Elliott
Abstract:: Dynein is a motor protein which transports cargo along tracks inside the cell. Like related motor proteins kinesin and myosin, dynein uses cellular energy to take steps with its two foot domains. Unlike kinesin or myosin, dynein’s stepping pattern is highly varied: it can take steps between zero and 60nm...

Phylogeny of minute carabid beetles and their relatives based upon DNA sequence data (Coleoptera, Carabidae, Trechitae)

Creator:: Maddison, David R. and Ober, Karen A.
Abstract:: The phylogeny of ground beetles of supertribe Trechitae is inferred using DNA sequences of genes that code for 28S ribosomal RNA, 18S ribosomal RNA, and wingless. Within the outgroups, austral psydrines are inferred to be monophyletic, and separate from the three genera of true Psydrina (Psydrus, Nomius, Laccocenus); the austral...

Ultraviolet Radiation Influences Perch Selection by a Neotropical Poison-Dart Frog

Creator:: Kats, Lee B., Bucciarelli, Gary M., Schlais, David E., Blaustein, Andrew R., and Han, Barbara A.
Abstract:: Ambient ultraviolet-B radiation can harm amphibian eggs, larvae and adults. However, some amphibians avoid UV-B radiation when given the opportunity. The strawberry poison dart frog, Oophaga pumilio, is diurnal and males vocalize throughout the day in light gaps under forest canopies that expose them to solar radiation. Previous studies have...

High-Density SNP Genotyping of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) Reveals Patterns of Genetic Variation Due to Breeding

Creator:: Sim, Sung-Chur, Van Deynze, Allen, Stoffel, Kevin, Douches, David S., Zarka, Daniel, Ganal, Martin W., Chetelat, Roger T., Hutton, Samuel F., Scott, John W., Gardner, Randolph G., Panthee, Dilip R., Mutschler, Martha, Myers, James R., and Francis, David M.
Abstract:: The effects of selection on genome variation were investigated and visualized in tomato using a high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. 7,720 SNPs were genotyped on a collection of 426 tomato accessions (410 inbreds and 16 hybrids) and over 97% of the markers were polymorphic in the entire collection. Principal...

AI, Robot: A Rhetorical Analysis of Jeopardy! Matches Featuring IBM’s Artificial Intelligence

Creator:: Steele, Evan T.
Abstract:: The relationship between the public and new technologies has historically been a tumultuous one, with public perceptions ranging from excited rapid adoption to standoffish pessimism. In 2011, IBM tried to use competition as a means of showcasing a new technology to the public. This thesis is a work of rhetorical...

Farm Zoning and Fairness in Oregon 1964 - 2014

Creator:: Richmond, Henry R. and Houchen, Timothy G.
Abstract:: Senate Bill 100 (1973) and the Oregon Land Conservation and Development Commission’s (LCDC) goals (1975) required: - Cities to adopt urban growth boundaries (UGBs) to contain sprawl, and - Counties to use zoning to limit 15.6 million acres of farmland to farm use, and 8.0 million acres of forest land...

Abstract:: Ongoing greenhouse gas emissions can modify climate processes and induce shifts in ocean temperature, pH, oxygen concentration, and productivity, which in turn could alter biological and social systems. Here, we provide a synoptic global assessment of the simultaneous changes in future ocean biogeochemical variables over marine biota and their broader...

Evaluating Paratransgenesis as a Potential Control Strategy for African Trypanosomiasis

Creator:: Medlock, Jan, Atkins, Katherine E., Thomas, David N., Aksoy, Serap, and Galvani, Alison P.
Abstract:: Genetic-modification strategies are currently being developed to reduce the transmission of vector-borne diseases, including African trypanosomiasis. For tsetse, the vector of African trypanosomiasis, a paratransgenic strategy is being considered: this approach involves modification of the commensal symbiotic bacteria Sodalis to express trypanosome-resistance-conferring products. Modified Sodalis can then be driven into...
