Developing and interpreting aqueous functional assays for comparative property-activity relationships of different nanoparticles

Creator:: Kidd, Justin M., Hanigan, David, Truong, Lisa, Hristovski, Kiril, Tanguay, Robert, and Westerhoff, Paul
Abstract:: It is difficult to relate intrinsic nanomaterial properties to their functional behavior in the environment. Unlike frameworks for dissolved organic chemicals, there are few frameworks comparing multiple and inter-related properties of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) to their fate, exposure, and hazard in environmental systems. We developed and evaluated reproducibility and inter-correlation...

Anomalous Diffusion of Sand Tracer Particles Under Waves

Creator:: Wilson, Gregory W.
Abstract:: A model is presented for the horizontal and vertical diffusion of sand tracer particles by waves and is verified using a reanalysis of the experiments of Miller and Komar (1979, ). In the model, sand particles take random jumps at a rate associated with the wave period but also can...

Evaluating desiccated cyanobacteria Aphanizomenon flos-aquae for use as a biofertilizer on Swiss Chard

Creator:: Turk, Douglas E.
Abstract:: Non-toxic species of desiccated blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria, may offer potential for use as a fertilizer on irrigated crops. Here, the non-toxic cyanobacteria species Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), collected from Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, was evaluated for use as a biofertilizer in a controlled experiment on Swiss chard “Bright Lights” (Beta...

Carnivore conservation needs evidence-based livestock protection

Creator:: van Eeden, Lily M., Eklund, Ann, Miller, Jennifer R. B., Lopez-Bao, Jose Vicente, Chapron, Guillaume, Cejtin, Mikael R., Crowther, Mathew S., Dickman, Christopher R., Frank, Jens, Krofel, Miha, Macdonald, David W., McManus, Jeannine, Meyer, Tara K., Middleton, Arthur D., Newsome, Thomas M., Ripple, William J., Ritchie, Euan G., Schmitz, Oswald J., Stoner, Kelly J., Tourani, Mahdieh, and Treves, Adrian
Abstract:: Carnivore predation on livestock often leads people to retaliate. Persecution by humans has contributed strongly to global endangerment of carnivores. Preventing livestock losses would help to achieve three goals common to many human societies: preserve nature, protect animal welfare, and safeguard human livelihoods. Between 2016 and 2018, four independent reviews...

Highways, crossing structures and risk: Behaviors of Greater Yellowstone pronghorn elucidate efficacy of road mitigation

Creator:: Seidler, Renee G., Green, David S., and Beckmann, Jon P.
Abstract:: Wildlife crossing structures and accompanying barrier fencing can prevent large mammals from accessing road surfaces and can significantly reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions while allowing animals to move from one side of the road to the other. Little research has been conducted on the behavioral responses of wildlife when encountering these novel...

Elicitors: A Novel Tool for Controlling the Colorado Potato Beetle Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae)

Creator:: Butcher, Alexander M.
Abstract:: Over the last several decades, potato production has increased globally as it has been recognized as an important component to improving food security. However, potato production has been continuously challenged by pests. Current pest management practices rely heavily on chemical pesticides. Unfortunately, the overuse of pesticides can be harmful to...

A taxonomy of biomolecular features

Creator:: North, Jacob L.
Abstract:: The scientific method applies hypothesis testing to material samples through experimentation, measurement, and data analysis, which produce representations—or features—that describe phenomena of interest. Biomolecular features come in numerous forms such as values, matrices, graphs, three-dimensional structures, trajectories, and molecular surfaces. Researchers have tested thousands of features related to protein molecules...

Biodiversity and ecology of lichens of Katmai and Lake Clark National Parks and Preserves, Alaska

Creator:: McCune, B., Arup, U., Breuss, O., Di Meglio, E., Di Meglio, J., Esslinger, T. L., Magain, N., Miadlikowska, J., Miller, A. E., Muggia, L., Nelson, P. R., Rosentreter, R., Schultz, M., Sheard, J. W., Tonsberg, T., and Walton, J.
Abstract:: We inventoried lichens in Lake Clark (LACL) and Katmai (KATM) National Parks and Preserves. We assembled the known information on lichens in these parks by combining field, herbarium, and literature studies. Our results provide baseline data on lichen occurrence that may be used in resource condition assessments, vulnerability assessments, long-term...

Textural property and cell wall metabolism of 'Golden Bosc' and 'd'Anjou' pears as influenced by oxygen regimes after long-term controlled atmosphere storage

Creator:: Li, Meng, Zhi, Huanhuan, and Dong, Yu
Abstract:: Controlled atmosphere (CA) allows long-term storage of European pears (Pyrus communis L.) without chemical treatment to deliver a natural melting (buttery and juicy) texture for consumers. However, the relationship between textural properties and cell wall metabolism as influenced by O-2 regimes has not been comprehensively determined. In this study, 'Golden...

Cyclosporine Biosynthesis in Tolypocladium inflatum Benefits Fungal Adaptation to the Environment

Creator:: Yang, Xiuqing, Feng, Peng, Yin, Ying, Bushley, Kathryn, Spatafora, Joseph W., and Wang, Chengshu
Abstract:: The cycloundecapeptide cyclosporin A (CsA) was first isolated from the insect-pathogenic fungus Tolypocladium inflatum for its antifungal activity and later developed as an immunosuppressant drug. However, the full biosynthetic mechanism of CsA remains unknown and has puzzled researchers for decades. In this study, the biosynthetic gene cluster is suggested to...
