  • Triticum enhancer of zeste 1 (Tezl), a homolog of enhancer of zeste in Triticum monococcum

    Creator:
    Nunes, Jason L.
    Abstract:
    The Polycomb group (PcG) of genes of Drosophila melanogaster Meigen are involved in developmental regulation through chromatin remodeling. Homologs of PcG genes have been identified in both plant and animal species. In this study, we detail the identification and characterization of Triticum enhancer of zeste 1 (Tez1), a homolog of...

  • Shrinkage study of high performance concrete for bridge decks

    Creator:
    Fu, Tengfei
    Abstract:
    In the field of civil infrastructure, bridge desks are typically constructed using high performance concrete (HPC). Concrete bridge decks demand qualities such as low permeability, high abrasion resistance, superior durability, and long design life. Over decades of field and laboratory experience, many HPC bridge decks have been found to be...

  • New insights on an old topic : understanding the effects of forest harvest on trout in the context of climate

    Creator:
    Penaluna, Brooke E.
    Abstract:
    Studies of the effects of forest harvest on streams and fish have a long history in the Pacific Northwest. Results of this work have prompted development of new forest harvest practices that are more protective of these resources, but the effectiveness of these new practices has not been fully evaluated....

  • The Accuracies of Crossover and Parallel-Track Estimates of Geostrophic Velocity from TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason Altimeter Data

    Creator:
    Schlax, Michael G. and Chelton, Dudley B.
    Abstract:
    Mean-squared errors of surface geostrophic velocity estimates from the crossover and parallel-track methods are calculated for altimeters in the Ocean Topography Experiment (TOPEX)/Poseidon and Jason orbits. As part of the crossover method analysis, the filtering properties and errors of cross-track speed estimates are examined. Velocity estimates from both the crossover...

  • Assessing Durability of Concrete and Ettringite Accelerated Cementitious System

    Creator:
    Sarkar, Anika T.
    Abstract:
    The goal of the first part of this project was to investigate the influence of aggregate source and entrained air on the transport properties of concrete. Currently, there are several ASTM standards available that provide systematic procedures to evaluate mass transport properties of concrete. ASTM C642-13 (ASTM 2013), often referred...

  • Automated Chemical Acidification Testing of Cementitious Materials

    Creator:
    Zaw, Myo
    Abstract:
    Due to its availability, versatility, structural capability, and economic advantages, concrete is the most widely used material in building sewer networks and other wastewater structures such as treatment stations, wastewater digesters, septic tanks, pumping stations, hydraulic risers, utility risers and covers, etc. Concrete structures exposed to sewer environments can experience...

  • Developmental mutants of Phaseolus vulgaris L.

    Creator:
    Shii, Chou Tou
    Abstract:
    Hybrids with abnormal development were obtained when particular genotypes of Phaseolus vulgaris L. were crossed. The phenotypic aberrations of the F₁s included retarded growth, chlorosis of the trifoliate leaves and the formation of adventitious roots on the hypocotyls. The expression of the abnormalities was dependent on the temperature. At high...

  • Structural Response of High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites: Evaluation, Simulation, and Sensitivity Analysis

    Creator:
    Khlef, Feras L.
    Abstract:
    The constitutive behavior of high-performance fiber-reinforced cementitious composites (HPFRCCs) under mechanical loading is characterized by significant tensile properties that play an essential role in the structural response of several applications in structural engineering. The significance of tensile properties of HPFRCCs in structural engineering is the focus of three manuscripts presented...

  • Subcultures of Significance: Urbanity-Rurality, Tightness-Looseness, and Risk Perception

    Creator:
    Frydenlund, Nicole T. L.
    Abstract:
    Tightness-looseness (TL) is a cultural construct that measures the level of social norms present in a community, and the level of scrutiny of deviance from these norms. This construct offers a unique foundation for investigating how norms influence behavioral processes. Research in TL is relatively young, creating a frontier of...

  • Breeding and genetics of lilacs and hardy hibiscus

    Creator:
    Lattier, Jason D.
    Abstract:
    Lilacs are a group of ornamental trees and shrubs in the Oleaceae family consisting of 22 to 30 species. There are six series within genus Syringa: Pubescentes, Villosae, Ligustrae, Ligustrina, Pinnatifoliae, and Syringa. Fertility and cross-compatibility among cultivars, species, and series have yet to be formally investigated. Over three years,...
