The Construction of a Gossypium AD-genome-wide Comprehensive Reference Map Based on Diverse Data Resources
(2010-07-14)
Integration of two or more genomic maps provides a higher density of markers and greater genome coverage than can be obtained with the resources available for a single mapping study. Map integration is important in any ...
Regional Differences in Corn Ethanol Production: Profitability and Potential Water Demands
(2010-07-14)
Through the use of a stochastic simulation model this project analyzes both the
impacts of the expanding biofuels sector on water demand in selected regions of the
United States and variations in the profitability of ethanol ...
Social Interactions and We-Intentions for Agrivisitors’ Service Encounters
(2010-10-12)
This study addresses how agrivisitors' social interactions affect satisfaction and,
in turn, revisit intention. Adopting social exchange theory and resource theory, the study
proposes that social interactions with service ...
Optimization of Single and Layered Surface Texturing
(2010-07-14)
In visualization problems, surface shape is often a piece of data that must be shown effectively. One factor that strongly affects shape perception is texture. For example, patterns of texture on a surface can show the ...
A MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF PROTEIN TRAFFICKING IN THE VERTEBRATE RETINA: IMPLICATIONS FOR INTRAFLAGELLAR TRANSPORT AND DISEASE
(2010-07-14)
Vertebrate photoreceptors are highly specialized sensory neurons that utilize a
modified cilium known as the outer segment to detect light. Proper trafficking of
proteins to the outer segment is essential for photoreceptor ...
Characterizations of Cation/H+ Antiporters from Arabidopsis and Zebrafish
(2010-07-14)
To maintain optimal cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, cells employ three distinct
strategies: 1) tightly regulated influx of Ca2+; 2) efficient efflux of Ca2+ from the cell; 3)
sequestration of Ca2+ in organelles. Ca2+efflux ...
Microtubule Patterning and Manipulation Using Electrophoresis and Self-Assembled Monolayers
(2010-07-14)
We developed new methods for controlling and studying microtubules (MTs) outside the
complex workings of the living cell. Several surface treatments for preventing MT
fouling on surfaces were analyzed and, for the first ...
Treatment Acceptability of Social Skills Programs for Children with Autism: The Influence of Ethnicity, Age, and Problem Severity
(2010-10-12)
This study compared the treatment acceptability of four social skills interventions
that are commonly used with children with autism, as rated by parents of children with
autism spectrum disorders, general education teachers, ...
Streamline Assisted Ensemble Kalman Filter - Formulation and Field Application
(2010-10-12)
The goal of any data assimilation or history matching algorithm is to enable better reservoir management decisions through the construction of reliable reservoir performance models and the assessment of the underlying ...
Model-based Pre-processing in Protein Mass Spectrometry
(2011-02-22)
The discovery of proteomic information through the use of mass spectrometry (MS) has been an active area of research in the diagnosis and prognosis of many types of cancer. This process involves feature selection through ...
