  • “We Don’t Stop ‘til We Get There”: Reframing the Hip Hop Ill-literacies of Latinx Youth

    Creator:
    Cole, Matthew C.
    Abstract:
    The experiences of Latinx youth are well-studied in U.S. schools, yet, few studies have focused on their experiences in Community Based Educational Spaces (CBES). CBES continue to be on the periphery of Education research despite the potential affordances of youth-led work in such out-of-school spaces (Baldridge, 2020). At the same...

  • Meeting the Night : The Science and Mystery of an Endangered Habitat

    Creator:
    Sisson, Jill
    Abstract:
    Night is an extraordinary resource. Unlike air, water, or soil, nighttime is a spatio-temporal phenomenon, which leads to many crucial roles. It provides refuge to wildlife species, triggers hormonal and behavioral responses among a wide variety of organisms, and serves as an essential migratory backdrop for species that navigate by...

  • Investigating Transcriptional Control of Specialized Gene Expression in Plants

    Creator:
    Fraser, Valerie N.
    Abstract:
    Specialized or secondary metabolism is a collection of pathways and small molecules that, while beneficial to an organism, are not strictly necessary for survival. Plants use secondary metabolites to, among other things, attract pollinators, defend against biotic and abiotic stressors, and form symbioses. Natural products from plants have seen an...

  • Silage corn (western Oregon) [2009]

    Creator:
    Hart, John M. (John Mervyn), 1947-, Sullivan, Dan M., Gamroth, Mike, Downing, Troy, Peters, Amy, and Oregon State University. Extension Service
    Abstract:
    Silage corn makes excellent feed for dairy cattle because of its high dry-matter yield, energy content, and palatability, especially when mixed with other feed. Also, it does not accumulate potassium as do many cool-season grass species. Nitrogen (N) is the most yield-limiting nutrient for silage corn production. Most dairies in...

  • Computational Approaches for Understanding Combinatorial Gene Regulation

    Creator:
    Ansariola, Mitra
    Abstract:
    Gene regulation is a complex mechanism that controls the spatial and temporal expression of genes in a living cell. My dissertation studies focus on two problems. First, tissue-specific gene expression prediction from DNA sequence and chromatin state, and second, the accurate discovery of small over-represented regulatory circuits in gene regulatory...

    Abstract:
    This paper synthesizes various works Wang tiles up to this point, including: the reduction from the Halting Problem to Wang Tiling Problem and notions around various aspects of periodicity, including minimal period, aperiodicity, and axis-aligned periodicity. Additionally it includes new work, including: a proof that a tiling can be periodic...
