Epitope mapping and characterization of the glycoprotein of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus

Creator:: Xu, Li
Abstract:: A characterization of the antigenic determinants (epitopes) of the glycoprotein (G) of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) was made with different regions of the G gene expressed in Escherichia coli. A cDNA copy of the G gene was divided into four fragments after Taq I digestion and these fragments were...

Comparing the Ovarian Expression of Sperm Acrosome Associated 3 Protein in Young and Adult Queens

Creator:: Ramsey, Ann M.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis was to quantify sperm acrosome associated 3 (SPACA3) protein expression in the ovaries of young (3.0±0.9 months, n=11) and adult (10.4±2.8 months, n=11) queens. It was hypothesized that SPACA3 expression would not differ between age groups. Immunohistochemistry was performed on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded feline ovarian sections...

The Effects of Phytoplankton Prey Species and Nutrient Limitation on Microzooplankton

Creator:: McBeain, Kelsey Ann
Abstract:: Phytoplankton and microzooplankton comprise the base and the first link of the marine food web, respectively. These microbes are key drivers of marine carbon and nutrient cycles. Phytoplankton convert atmospheric CO₂ into organic carbon, and microzooplankton consume phytoplankton, packaging phytoplankton carbon into particulate forms that have a variety of fates:...

Potential carbon storage at the landscape scale in the Pacific Northwest, U.S.A.

Creator:: Smithwick, Erica Ann Hoffa
Abstract:: Estimates of potential carbon (C) storage can be used to constrain predictions of future carbon sequestration and to understand the degree to which disturbances, both natural aid anthropogenic, affect C storage. An upper bound on C storage in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) of the United States was estimated using field...
