Salivation and engorgement parameters of sucking insect vectors : implications in pathogen transmission

Creator:: Shieh, Jong-neng
Abstract:: The probing behavior and feeding activity of green peach aphid, Myzus persicae Sulzer, on Bacillus thuringiensis ssp. tenebrionis- transgenic potatoes, insecticide treated potatoes, and host plants with different preference were electronically monitored. I found that first, transgenic potatoes had no effect on green peach aphid probing suggesting that transmission of...

A lysozyme-like protein in the salivary glands of adult Aedes aegypti : functional and biochemical characteristics

Creator:: Pimentel, Gliceria Estandian, 1958-
Abstract:: This study investigated some functional and biochemical characteristics of a bacteriolytic protein in the salivary glands of adult Aedes aecupti. A method for the isolation of this protein from other mosquito salivary gland components is also described. Based on some of its biochemical properties, this bacteriolytic protein can be classified...

Evaluation of behavioral response of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to repellents using a novel olfactometer

Creator:: Doğan, Elif Barc̦in
Abstract:: Mosquito-borne pathogens are the cause of important, often deadly diseases worldwide; and, use of repellents is one of the components of mosquito control programs. The most effective mosquito repellent is N,N-dimethyl-m-toluamide, known as DEET. Speculation on the adverse effects of DEET have been on the rise since the 1980s, and...

Effects of nucleosomes on transcription by polymerase I in a reconstituted system

Creator:: Georgel, Philippe, 1961-
Abstract:: The aim of this study was to gain more information about the interactions between DNA and the histone octamer during the process of transcription. This work used a pUC8 plasmid derivative that contained the core promoter region of the RNA polymerase I of Acanthamoeba castellanii, placed upstream of four repeats...

Examining parameters of vectorial capacity for mosquitoes associated with stormwater catch basins in Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Townzen, Jill S.
Abstract:: This research examines two of parameters of vectorial capacity for mosquitoes associated with catch basins in Corvallis, Oregon. The parameters of interest were determining 1) abundance of the mosquito species associated with the catch basins and 2) feeding patterns of local mosquito species. Three species of mosquitoes were collected from...

Predicting the stability, equilibrium response, and nonequilibrium dynamics of ecological systems

Creator:: Hosack, Geoffrey R.
Abstract:: In this dissertation, new theory and its applications are developed to predict three properties of complex ecological communities: stability, equilibrium response, and non-equilibrium dynamics. First, a graph-theoretic analysis identifies the interconnections in a complex ecosystem that promote or diminish stability (Chapter 2). The hierarchy of interactions that influences stability and...

Phylogeny of the "Chaoboriform" genera

Creator:: Ogawa, Joshua R.
Abstract:: The phantom midges (Diptera: Chaoboridae) are a relatively small fly family composed of 50 extant species in six genera. Larvae are of interest to limnologists and ecologists because of their tolerance to toxicants, predatory avoidance strategies, and the role chaoborids play in zooplankton community dynamics. Relative to mosquitoes, systematists have...

Kenward-Roger approximate F test for fixed effects in mixed linear models

Creator:: Alnosaier, Waseem S.
Abstract:: For data following a balanced mixed Anova model, the standard Anova method typically leads to exact F tests of the usual hypotheses about fixed effects. However, for most unbalanced designs with most hypotheses, the Anova method does not produce exact tests, and approximate methods are needed. One approach to approximate...
