High resolution linkage and association study of quantitative trait loci
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
As a large number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and microsatellite
markers are available, high resolution mapping employing multiple markers or
multiple allele markers is an important step to identify quantitative ...
Evaluation of a theoretical model of perceptual accuracy and self-management behavior in pediatric diabetes
(Texas A&M University, 2005-11-01)
This study evaluated a model of perceptual accuracy and self-management
behavior in pediatric diabetes. Participants were 169 children and adolescents (10-18
years) attending diabetes summer camps. Error grid analysis ...
Leadership competencies and perceptions of students following a traditional or web-based graduate academic leadership course
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)
The intent of this study was to determine if leadership competency levels of the
students enrolled in a graduate level leadership course were different when taught in
Web-based versus traditional classroom settings. ...
Woodland development and soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics and storage in a subtropical savanna ecosystem
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)
Woody plant invasion of grasslands is prevalent worldwide, but the biogeochemical consequences of this vegetation shift remain largely unquantified. In the Rio Grande Plains, TX, grasslands and savannas dominated by C4 ...
Characterization of novel rice germplasm from West Africa and genetic marker associations with rice cooking quality
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Genetic resource enhancement is the foundation of any good breeding program.
Landraces from West Africa, interspecifics between Oryza sativa and Oryza glaberrima
and improved lines from the West African Rice Development ...
Overwash induced by storm conditions
(2009-05-15)
Erosion problems are not only in the Texas area, but exist also along the coastline
all over the world. Even though many researchers have studied coastal processes
related with beach erosion and deposition over the decades, ...
Menstrual cycle effects on pain modulation and autonomic arousal
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)
Animal research has elucidated the neurobiological substrates and environmental
determinants of pain modulation. Despite these advances, relatively little is known
about how psychological processes activate pain modulatory ...
A simulation model of Rio Grande wild turkey dynamics in the Edwards Plateau of Texas
(Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)
I investigated the effect of precipitation and predator abundance on Rio Grande wild
turkey (Meleagris gallopavo; RGWT) in Texas. My results suggested that RGWT
production was strongly correlated with cumulative winter ...
Neurodegeneration in cerebellar granule cells of p/q type voltage gated calcium channel mutant leaner mice
(2009-05-15)
Mutations of the α1A subunit of CaV 2.1 voltage gated calcium (VGCC) channels
are responsible for several inherited disorders affecting humans, including familial
hemiplegic migraine, episodic ataxia type and spinocerebellar ...
A case study of the perceptions of current and former school board members of a recently annexed, rural, impoverished, South Texas, Latino school district in a high stakes accountability system
(2009-05-15)
This research study was a qualitative study involving eight current or former
school board members of a recently annexed, rural, impoverished, Latino school
district in South Texas. The purpose of this intrinsic case study ...
