Abstract:: Refractory inclusions from Kaba (CV3) chondrite were studied by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). The inclusions observed cover a wide range of chemical patterns, mineral assemblages and textures, indicating the complexity of early solar nebular conditions. The elemental abundances normalized by Cl chondritic abundances vary...

Abstract:: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the major crops produced in the U.S. Pacific Northwest, a region known for its wheat production for international export. Wheat production in the region is threatened by diseases such as Cephalosporium stripe and stripe rust. Cephalosporium stripe is a vascular wilt disease of...

Abstract:: The primary goal of this study is to access the processes that alter primary melts after segregation from a mantle source and ultimately form petrologic Layers 2 and 3 of the Ocean Crust. Mineral, melt inclusion, and whole rock chemical compositions are utilized to further the understanding of 1) the...

Abstract:: Imazamox-resistant wheat (Clearfield®) cultivars carry the Imi1 gene, which confers resistance to the imidazolinone (IMI) herbicide imazamox. Imazamox provides selective control of jointed goatgrass and other weeds in IMI-resistant wheat. Imi1 gene flow between IMI-resistant wheat and jointed goatgrass may occur via hybridization and backcross events. In 2009 and 2010,...

Creator:: Brandt, Kali M.
Abstract:: Wheat (Tritium aestivum) is an extremely important crop worldwide. It accounts for almost one quarter of the calories consumed each day by more than one third of the world’s population, and is grown over more land area than any other crop. Wheat breeding programs constantly strive to increase or maintain...

Creator:: Hennon, Paul Edward
Abstract:: Alaska-cedar (Chamaecvparis nootkatensIs (D. Don) Spach) is a valuable tree that is suffering from a serious decline and mortality of unknown cause throughout southeast Alaska. Epidemiological and pathological studies were initiated to determine if a pathogen is the primary cause of this problem. By examining old aerial photographs and by...

Creator:: Kongraksawech, Teepakorn
Abstract:: The major components of wheat flour are keys to its functionality in processing and product quality. The major components, other than the lipids, are polymers: starch, protein, and non-starchy polysaccharides (NSP). In wheat NSP are primarily arabinoxylans (AX). These components are compartmentalized in the grain but are forced into close...
