Mercury and molt: no strong Hg trend across songbird primaries

Creator:: Ramsden, Danielle K., Low, Katherine E., Jackson, Allyson K., Emery, Colleen, and Eagles-Smith, Collin A.
Abstract:: Mercury (Hg) is a bioaccumulative metal that can threaten the health of wild birds. Feathers are commonly used biomonitoring tools for non-lethally estimating Hg exposure in birds because they contain stable Hg concentrations upon completion of feather growth, when blood flow to the feather has stopped. Despite the common use...

You are What, When, Where, and How you Eat : Mercury in Avian Food Webs across Multiple Spatial Scales

Creator:: Jackson, Allyson K.
Abstract:: Human alterations of landscapes take many forms, one of which is anthropogenic pollution. Mercury (Hg) is a complex contaminant because its uptake into the food web is not driven entirely by loading to the system; methylation is necessary to make Hg bioavailable and toxic to fish and wildlife. Because methylation...

The role of the putative transcription factor DIS10 in PRC2-mediated gene silencing

Creator:: Jackson, Kendra K.
Abstract:: PRC2 (Polycomb Repressive Complex 2) mediated gene silencing plays an important role in cell differentiation, stem cell plasticity, and tumor suppression. In fungi, it is also involved in pathogenicity. The catalytic subunit, KMT6, trimethylates lysine 27 on histone h3 (H3K27me3) at loci targeted for silencing. In animals, PRC1 and PRC2...

The Cougar, The Tick, and Human Wellbeing: The Social, Economic, and Ecological Valuations of Living with Cougars in Oregon.

Creator:: Miller, Allyson
Abstract:: The overarching objective of this paper is to identify how the three tiers of human well-being (i.e., economics, ecosystems, and social) are linked to healthy landscapes and a species-rich ecosystem mediated by healthy cougar populations. Does the cougar help mitigate Oregon’s Lyme disease, chronic wasting disease (CWD), or elements of...
