"Sorrow's springs are the same" : synoeciosis in the poetry of Alfred Tennyson and Gerard Manley Hopkins

Creator:: Adamson, Christopher
Abstract:: Tennyson and Hopkins scholarship is dominated by a focus on antithetical dichotomies. Tennyson's speakers are fractured selves focused on the gap between matter and spirit, faith and reason, solitude and community. Likewise, Hopkins' doubled vocation as priest and poet is presented as a contradiction to the point that the transition...

Innovation: Integration of Random Variation and Creative Synthesis

Creator:: Chen, Jiyao and Adamson, Christopher
Abstract:: Sarah Harvey has developed an important model called creative synthesis for the use of dialectical reasoning in creative endeavors. This model is put in direct opposition to the evolutionary model called random variation, which, according to Harvey, promotes incremental innovation, while creative synthesis promotes radical innovation. In emphasizing the affirmative...

Quantitative trait locus analysis of agronomic and malting quality traits in the Harrington x Morex barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) mapping population

Creator:: Marquez-Cedillo, Luis A.
Abstract:: Characterization of the determinants of economically important phenotypes showing complex inheritance should lead to more effective use of genetic resources. This study was conducted to determine the number, genome location and effects of QTLs determining malting quality and agronomic traits in the two North American barley quality standards. Using a...

The Preparation and Human Taste Detection of Maltooligosaccharides with Varying Degrees of Polymerization

Creator:: Andrewson, Toren S.
Abstract:: Starch is a significant component of the human diet and the glucose produced through its digestion provides a critical source of energy. When starch enters the mouth, salivary α-amylase hydrolyzes it into maltooligosaccharides (MOS, degree of polymerization [DP] 3-20) and maltopolysaccharides (MPS, DP >20). Previous studies have found that humans...

SLC23A1, the gene encoding sodium-dependent vitamin C transport protein 1 (SVCT1) : regulation of transcription and its functional consequences

Creator:: Michels, Alexander Johannes
Abstract:: Vitamin C is an essential component of the human diet. Uptake of vitamin C in the cell is regulated by the function of sodium-dependent vitamin C transporters (SVCTs). SVCT1 (encoded by the SLC23A1 gene) is expressed in the colon, liver and kidney, where it plays a vital role in determining...

Phylogenetics, Biogeography, Morphological Variation, and Taxonomic Revision of Sandelia capensis (Cuvier 1829) (Anabantiformes: Anabantidae), a Freshwater Fish from the Coastal Streams of the Cape Region, South Africa

Creator:: Bronaugh, Whitcomb Meade
Abstract:: Accumulating human impacts on freshwater ecosystems have created a biodiversity crisis for freshwater fishes while conservation efficacy remains hampered by the Linnaean shortfall, the ignorance of many species that have yet to be discovered and described. The past discovery of most freshwater fish species was simply a matter of collecting...

Donating Democracy: Measuring the Effectiveness of Foreign Aid in Central Asia

Creator:: Michaels, Julia
Abstract:: The promotion of democracy abroad has become a critical national security objective for the United States. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, newly independent states have received millions in aid to facilitate their transition to democracy. A significant portion of this funding has been administered by the United States...

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Environmental Air-Water Matrices and Light Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids (LNAPL)

Creator:: Schwichtenberg, Trever J.
Abstract:: The presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), organic contaminants first synthesized in the 1940s, has been reported worldwide in a variety of environmental matrices and ultimately in biological systems including humans. Ongoing research into PFAS has included identifying novel PFAS, assessing their fate and transport in the environment, and...
