This thesis concerns the alteration of the course of selective
protein synthesis and morphogenesis in plants treated with growth
regulating chemicals. Treatment of 48-hour-old "Alaska" pea seedlings
(Pisum sativum L.) with 2, 4-D, IAA, NAA or picloram caused
inhibition of epicotyl and primary root elongation and proliferation of
massed lateral...
The energy absorbed by microscopic volumes exposed to ionizing
radiation is not well represented by the average dose due to the small
number of discrete energy transfers involved. The energy deposited in
a microscopic volume can be determined by measuring the ionization in
a detector filled with gas at low...

Methane flux was measured from northern Alaska Arctic Coastal Plain wetlands to assess the spatial and temporal variability of Arctic tundra emissions during the summers of 1987 through 1990. Initially, the role of vegetation in the release of methane from substrate to atmosphere was assessed. Methane emissions were shown to...
This phenomenological inquiry explored dimensions of reflection for older adults in a developmental oriented adventure education experience. Data were gathered from emergent interviews with four individuals while participating in a multi-day, self-contained experiential education program conducted in a rugged environment, and led by a Navajo leader. Two principle research questions...
In 2006–2007, an unusually high number of harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) stranded along the Washington and Oregon coastlines. Spatiotemporal analyses were used to examine their ability to detect clusters of porpoise strandings during an unusual mortality event (UME) in the Pacific Northwest using stranding location data. Strandings were evaluated as...
Studies were conducted to assess glacial acetic acid (GAA) with various host plant volatiles (HPVs) and the sex pheromone, (E,E)-8, 10-dodecadien-1-ol, of codling moth, Cydia pomonella (L), as lures in traps for tortricid pests that often co-occur in tree fruits in the western United States. In addition to codling moth,...
BACKGROUND: Targeted capture of genomic regions reduces sequencing cost while generating higher coverage by
allowing biomedical researchers to focus on specific loci of interest, such as exons. Targeted capture also has the
potential to facilitate the generation of genomic data from DNA collected via saliva or buccal cells. DNA samples...
