Genetics and functional genomics of legume nodulation
(Elsevier, 2006-02)
Gram-negative soil bacteria (rhizobia) within the Rhizobiaceae phylogenetic family (a-proteobacteria) have the unique ability
to infect and establish a nitrogen-fixing symbiosis on the roots of leguminous plants. This ...
Effects of prescribed fire on forest soil properties in the Ozark Highlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
soil bulk density was measured at the 0-10, 10-20, and 20-30 cm depths before fire, and bulk density at the 0-10 cm depth was re-sampled two years post-burn. There was no change in bulk density of the whole soil and the fine soil fraction. Mineral soil...

Agroforestry buffer, biomass crop, and grain crop effects on soil quality and soil water use
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
may avoid soil degradation as well as improve soil and water quality. The objectives of this study were (i) to evaluate the effects of different perennial vegetative management systems and soil depth (10- cm depth increments from the surface to the 40...
Impacts of municipal wastewater effluent on seed banks, chemistry, and microorganisms of soils excavated from wetland impoundments designated for wildlife
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
To evaluate the effects of municipal wastewater effluent (WWE) and Missouri River water (MOR) as irrigation sources on soil chemistry, seed banks, and microorganisms, a field study was conducted in conjunction with a set ...
An economic analysis of the agricultural development potential for Southern Honduras
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1975)
The study was conducted in the Valle and Choluteca Districts of Southern Honduras in 1974. The objectives of the study were (1) to identify input-output relationships for selected crops; (2) determine current and potential ...
Variability of soil hydraulic properties and estimation of plant-available water on claypan-soil landscapes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
and landscape position, intact soil core samples (76 by 76 mm) were taken from the 0- to 10-, 10- to 20-, and 20- to 30-cm soil depths. For objective 2, soil profile samples were taken at 18 to 19 locations from each of two close-by fields and PAW capacity...
The secret lives of African forest elephants: using genetics, networks, and telemetry to understand sociality
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
extensive networks of individuals suggesting fission-fusion sociality. Also, adult females at distances of five kilometers or less were more closely related to each other than expected from chance. Known adult females and their associates were tracked...
From the lab bench to the fuel tank : development and analysis of novel adsorbents for hydrogen and natural gas storage
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Hydrogen and natural gas offer a promising avenue towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector; however, storage poses a non-trivial challenge, with current systems requiring prohibitively large ...
First-principle simulation of blast barrier effectiveness for the development of simplified design tools
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Blast barrier walls have been shown to reduce the blast load on structures in most scenarios. Analysis of existing data for blast barrier response ...
Genetic and microbiota-mediated phenotype variability in the min mouse model of human colorectal cancer
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Complex diseases develop as a result of genetic predisposition and environmental factors that determine individual risk. Environmental factors such as geographical location, diet, and lifestyle choices shape the gut ...
The synthesis and characterization of 1,1'-disubstituted ferrocene imine Schiff base ligand systems for use as potential environmental heavy metal cationic sensors
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Heavy metals in the environment such as Cd, Hg and Pb are toxic to life forms. They can enter the ecological system through both natural and industrial sources. By developing chemical sensors that can detect these metals, ...
The relationship between leadership style and student achievement in high poverty, low funded schools
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
regression analysis, and open-coding. The results of the study found that out of all leadership styles, active management-by-exception had a significant negative correlation with overall, communication arts, and math student achievement. It was also a...
