Accessions of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L. subsp. aestivum) from the USDA–ARS National Small Grains Collection (NSGC) are a resource for wheat scientists worldwide. The genetic diversity of the wheat core subset, representing approximately 10% of the collection’s 42,138 T. aestivum accessions, was examined using 390 diversity arrays technology (DArT)...
A study was conducted during 1974 and 1975 to evaluate the impact
of stocking intensity and season of grazing upon carbohydrate
concentration, biomass of storage organs, and total carbohydrate per
plant in the roots and crowns of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.)
in improved rangelands in Western Oregon. The stocking...
Electron transport and relaxation may be substantially different in low-dimensional
systems compared to that observed in bulk material. In the present work, Monte Carlo
models are used for the solution to the Boltzmann transport equation, with scattering
rates calculated quantum mechanically for superlattice and quantum wells. Carrier
relaxation following optical...
Schistosomiasis afflicts 200 million people and is responsible for 200,000 deaths per year. The infection is caused by a digenean trematode in the genus Schistosoma. The parasite must cycle through both a vertebrate (human) and invertebrate (snail) host to complete the life cycle. My dissertation focuses on the genetic mechanisms...
In host-associated microbiomes, the mechanisms that regulate community composition or the principles that govern dynamics remain far from clear. However, understanding how the structure of microbial communities shift as the system moves away from a healthy state is critical to assessing disease progression and to formulate any potential mitigation strategy....
In this dissertation, we explored multiple coding techniques to reduce energy consumption, improve performance, and secure wireless sensor networks specifically and ad-hoc networks in general. With the introduction of Internet of Things (IoT) and 5G technologies, wireless sensor networks are quickly emerging as an important and key technology in the...
The goal of the work in this dissertation was to identify alternative soil amendments to improve plant growth and yield during establishment of highbush blueberry (Vaccinium hybrid). Woody materials, such as sawdust and wood chips, have a high carbon to nitrogen (C:N) ratio and low water holding capacity, which can...
Both liquid and solid wastes from Pacific whiting surimi manufacturing were
characterized and value-added products were recovered. A proteinase in surimi wash
water (SWW) was determined to be cathepsin L with Mr 54,200 on SDS-substrate gel.
Heat treatment and acidification shifted the activity zone to M [subscript r] 39,500. No...
