Experimental Evolution of Roundup Resistance in Outcrossing Populations of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Hanson, Chloe C.
Abstract:: Evolve & Resequence (E&R) experiments subject laboratory populations to environments controlled by investigators, who then document the phenotypic and genomic changes that take place over many generations. These experiments provide powerful tools for testing of a wide variety of evolutionary questions, especially questions about the nature of adaptive traits. While...

What's Really Important in Introductory Psychology?

Creator:: Bohnstedt, Chloe
Abstract:: Is there a core set of concepts in psychology? Early work identified keywords in psychology by asking textbook authors what concepts were most important to them to understand what was essential for college students' psychological literacy (Boneau, 1990). Much of the early work showed there is little consistency in the...

Successful Secessionist Movements and the Uncertainty of Post-Secession Quality of Life

Creator:: Stein, Chloe
Abstract:: A prevalent assumption among those engaging in secessions is that their quality of life will improve once they establish their own nation. This study examined this assumption by looking at how a successful secession impacted peoples’ quality of life. Despite the sheer number of active secessionist movements, very few actually...

Determining novel control methods for cabbage maggot (Delia radicum) in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Dugger, Chloe D.
Abstract:: Cabbage maggot, Delia radicum (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) impacts the production of Brassicaceae crops worldwide. The larva feed on the roots of crops causing reductions in yields due to impaired root function and unmarketability of crops. Chemical and cultural management programs are commonly used to control cabbage maggot with varying rates of...

The higher classification of the Hesperiidae (Lepidoptera: Hesperioidea)

Creator:: Warren, Andrew D.
Abstract:: A comprehensive tribal-level classification for the world's subfamilies of Hesperiidae, the skipper butterflies, is proposed for the first time. Phylogenetic relationships between tribes and subfamilies are inferred using DNA sequence data from three gene regions: 943 bp of cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) (in the mitochondrial genome), 739 bp of...

Prototyping of Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting Circuitry for IoT Devices

Creator:: Webb, Derek
Abstract:: Due to the advancement of incredibly low power microcontrollers and small form factor integrated circuits, energy harvesting can be considered as an alternative, low power source for remote ocean sensing and measurements. To demonstrate the effectiveness of harvesting thermoelectric energy contained in the temperature differential between ocean surface water and...

Health Outcomes in Pakistan: Empirical essays for Policy Assessment

Creator:: Gardezi, Najam uz Zehra
Abstract:: In resource constrained settings, missing markets and unregulated externalities can have a significant impact on human capital outcomes. High out of pocket expenditure due to the inaccessibility of insurance markets limits the use of healthcare, just as the inability to borrow in the face of a cash constraint may lead...

Evaluating TEG Energy Harvesting Capabilities Across Naturally Occurring Temperature Gradients

Creator:: Estenson, Alyssa H.
Abstract:: Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) have gained much popularity in the search for alternatives to clean sources to harvest energy. Given their capability to harness an electric potential given a temperature differential across their opposing faces, and the foreseeable prevalence of naturally and/or commonly occurring temperature gradients in multiple applications, TEGs are...

Design and Modeling Techniques for Impedance Based Flow Cytometry

Creator:: Dawes, Jacob
Abstract:: Microfluidic devices have enabled lab-on-a-chip (LOC) systems that allow for complex sample analysis and preparation in a compact form factor. One technology that may benefit from a microfluidic approach and further miniaturization is flow cytometry. Flow cytometry is an analysis technique for enumerating and characterizing populations of cells; this is...

Twentieth Century Labor Policy and Union Decline: A Time Series Analysis

Creator:: Beaston, Ryan
Abstract:: Union density in the United States has declined to historic lows over the past four decades. In 1954, nearly 35 percent of workers were union members while only 11 percent of workers were members of unions in 2015. Simultaneously, economic inequality widened, with one-third to one-fifth of this increase attributed...

Income Inequality and Public Expenditure on Non-Compulsory Education in Western Europe from 1999-2010

Creator:: Young, Ryan
Abstract:: Policies in Europe over the last half a century have steadily dismantled the inequality-easing processes of the welfare state. Current conditions coupled with concerns related to the recent economic downturn have heightened focus on the issue of income distribution. Education has been identified as a resource to combat such ills....

Financing of Public Higher Education in Afghanistan: Public Opinion and Information Effects

Creator:: Najam, Rafiuddin
Abstract:: The Afghan public higher education (HE) system absorbs less than one-fifth of government education spending and per student spending declines, while the student annual enrollment is rising. This contrast may trigger challenges and inevitable tradeoffs for the public universities to encounter. Policies concerning the diversification of financing stream need attention;...

Essays on Antenatal Care Utilization in Rural Bihar, India: Implications for Policy Design

Creator:: Anand, Gautam
Abstract:: Improving access to and uptake of antenatal care remains a persistent challenge for India. It is a far greater challenge for an underdeveloped, poorer and mostly rural state like Bihar. The 2015-16 National Family Health Survey (NFHS-IV) of India reported that only 3% pregnant women in rural Bihar utilized full...

Rationalization and innovative design of asymmetric organocatalysts through computational investigation

Creator:: Johnston, Ryne Connell
Abstract:: My work on computing complex catalyzed organic transformations reveals that only a few subtle chemical factors, e.g. non-classical hydrogen bonding, (hyper)conjugation and steric effects, common across different catalyst manifolds are critical for catalysis and selectivity. Rational manipulation and exploitation of these factors has led to improved catalyst designs, which has...

Cytokinin production by species of the fungus Taphrina

Creator:: Johnston, James Clelland
Abstract:: Chemically defined liquid media were devised which supported excellent growth of Taphrina cerasi and T. deformans. When grown in fermentation culture vessels, T. cerasi and T. deformans released cytokinins into the liquid media. The presence of these cell division factors was demonstrated with the soybean tissue assay which is specific...
