Addressing Data Resolution in Precision Agriculture

Creator:: Kelley, Jason
Abstract:: Irrigated agriculture constitutes the greatest consumptive water use globally, so that irrigation efficiency measures are an important part of global efforts to best utilize this limited resource. However, greater irrigation efficiency must be achieved while simultaneously maintaining or increasing crop yields and farming profitability. Incremental water use decisions are made...

Quantitative resistance to Puccinia striiformis f. sp. hordei in barley near-isogenic (BISON) lines

Creator:: Richardson, Kelley L.
Abstract:: Quantitative resistance (QR) to disease is usually more durable than qualitative resistance, but its genetic basis is not well understood. We used the barley/barley stripe rust pathosystem as a model for the characterization of the QR phenotype and associated genomic regions. As an intermediate step in the preparation of near-isogenic...

Atomic solid state energy scale applied to novel thin-film solar absorbers

Creator:: Pelatt, Brian D.
Abstract:: The atomic solid state energy (SSE) scale is introduced as a tool for inorganic materials design. The SSE scale is obtained by assessing an average electron affinity (EA) (for a cation) or an average ionization potential (IP) (for an anion) for each atom using data from compounds having that specific...

Location of prune dwarf and prunus necrotic ringspot viruses in sweet cherry pollen and fruit

Creator:: Kelley, Randall David
Abstract:: The location of prune dwarf virus (PDV) and Prunus necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV) in pollen and seed from infected and healthy sweet cherry trees pollinated with infected pollen was investigated. Virus-like particles were observed in the cytoplasm of pollen grains from PDV-infected cherry trees using transmission electron microscopy. No particles...

Computed tomography analysis of wood-adhesive bonds

Creator:: Modzel, Günter Georg Rolf
Abstract:: The importance of wood bonding increased in the last decades due to the increased usage of wood composites whose performance depends to a large extent on the adhesive penetration and subsequent bonding of the adherends. The presented research used XMT (x-ray microtomography) to perform a non-destructive, threedimensional analysis of the...

On admissibility among affine sets of linear estimators

Creator:: Pereira, Clifford Brian
Abstract:: We describe a general finite-dimensional inner product space setting for studying the characterization of admissible linear estimators. We extend the results of LaMotte (1982) and derive necessary and sufficient conditions for an estimator to be admissible among an arbitrary affine set of linear estimators when they are compared using quadratic...

Investigating variation in immunity and infection risk in wild ungulates

Creator:: Dugovich, Brian S.
Abstract:: In the midst of the sixth mass extinction, understanding wildlife disease spillover is critical to maintaining protected wildlife areas. Studying ecoimmunology and wildlife disease ecology helps to understand immune and disease traits in an ecological context, which is invaluable in preventing pathogen spillover between livestock and wildlife. To investigate this...

Nonlocal electromagnetic theory of fluids with applications to surface waves in a dielectric fluid

Creator:: McCay, Brian M.
Abstract:: The last two decades have seen many new continuum models for electromagnetic materials which were constructed by merely adding terms to the classical balance laws and constitutive equations. Nonlocal theories, such as the one developed by A. C. Eringen., however, depart from the traditional approaches by accounting for the effects...

Vitamin E Protects Developmental Gene Expression and Metabolic Networks in Zebrafish Embryos

Creator:: Head, Brian A.
Abstract:: Vitamin E (VitE) is necessary for vertebrate embryonic development. VitE prevents lipid peroxidation (LPO), which requires detoxification by cellular antioxidant systems subsequently involving reducing power derived from energy metabolism. Thus, VitE protects metabolic networks in the developing embryo and the integrated gene expression networks compensating for and impaired by LPO-induced...
