(Texas A&M University, 1999)Sorption of organic contaminants affects their bioavailability and therefore the success of biodegradation in the subsurface. The bioavailability of complex mixtures in low organic matter environments is affected by the ...
-
(2012-07-16)The main objective of this research was to develop a protocol in which pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) would act as a tag to identify PLP-dependent enzymes from complex mixtures or cell lysates. Following the purification of a ...

-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )Pyrimidine metabolism in Lactobacilli was investigated with emphasis on L. fermenti. Pyrimidine, including thymine (thymidine) auxotrophs of L. fermenti, were specially isolated for this study. It was found that L. fermenti ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)This manuscript presents a thorough investigation and description of metabolic control dynamics in vivo and in silico using as a model de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. Metabolic networks have been studied intensely for ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )During rapid growth, the excretion of pyrimidines, predominantly uracil, is a common characteristic of both procaryotic and eucaryotic cells. In Escherichia coli there are some K12 strains which excrete orotic acid (OA) ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2001)Research was conducted in Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, New Mexico, to investigate the efficacy of orally administered bait cubes containing pyriproxyfen for control of the plague vector flea, Oropsylla montana (Baker), ...

-
(2014-07-08)Wildfire plays a contradictory role as both a hazard and a necessary ecological process in certain ecosystems. A variety of factors influence wildfire, including fuel type and quantity, land management policies, and patterns ...
-
(2009-05-15)Increases in demand, lower emission standards, and reduced fuel supplies have fueled the recent effort to find new and better fuels to power the necessary equipment for society’s needs. Often, the fuels chosen for research ...
-
(2009-05-15)Variations in characteristics of tropical deep convection are examined for an association with the stratospheric quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO). Eight years (1998-2005) of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 1999)Considerable work has been done in devising mechanisms for providing service guarantees within a network. These schemes can be broadly classified into two categories, schemes that require maintaining state for each flow ...
-
(2009-05-15)Quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees will play a critically important role in future mobile wireless networks. In this dissertation, we study a set of QoS-driven resource allocation problems for mobile wireless communications ...
-
(2016-07-20)Support Vector Machines (SVMs) is a popular method to solve standard machine learning tasks like classification, regression or clustering. There are many algorithms to solve the linear SVM classification problem. However, ...
-
(2021-12-09)Understanding genetic architectures of yield and yield components of dryland and irrigated wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is pivotal to developing modern high-yielding germplasm and cultivars, while maintaining end-use quality ...
-
(2020-06-09)Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeders strive to develop high-yielding varieties with outstanding end-use quality attributes and tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. Wheat end-use quality, particularly bread making, ...
-
(2016-04-26)Cotton is the world’s leading natural textile fiber and oilseed crop, with a global economic impact of over $600 billion. However, few QTLs have been identified and linked with yield traits. In this study, a large number ...
-
(2009-05-15)As compared with other cereal grains, Sorghum bicolor shows very low levels ofprotein digestibility when exposed to proteolytic enzymes. Protein digestibility furtherdecreases when sorghum is cooked. It is speculated that ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Sorghum downy mildew (SDM) of maize is caused by the oomycete Peronosclerospora sorghi (Weston and Uppal) C. G. Shaw. The disease can cause devastating yield losses in maize (Zea mays L.). Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) ...
-
(2017-12-08)Mechanical characterization is an important and now frequently used tool for phenotyping plants for crop improvement, e.g. lodging resistance. Mechanics of materials and structures in response to various external stimuli ...
