Understanding and Preventing Freeze Damage in Vineyards: Workshop Proceedings (2007)
(University of Missouri Extension, 2007)
The proceedings of this December 2007 workshop will be a valuable resource for current and aspiring producers wishing to understand freeze injury in grapevines and of special interest to those wishing to explore the available ...
Effect of different marinade treatments on survival and morphology of pathogens in beef jerky
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
In the early fall of 2003, the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS 2004) found that producers of meat and poultry jerky were not adequately processing the meat to achieve the lethality required to kill or reduce the ...
A hierarchical Bayesian mixture approach for modeling reflectivity fields with application to Nowcasting
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] We study a hierarchical Bayesian framework for finite mixtures of distributions. We first consider a Dirichlet mixture of normal components and utilize ...
From unique killers to a jumbo genome - isolation and characterization of phages that infect the plant pathogen, Agrobacterium tumefaciens
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Bacteriophages and their lytic peptides can protect plants from phytopathogens such as Agrobacterium tumefaciens. To better understand mechanisms of phagemediated host killing, we isolated and characterized five lytic ...
Hiding in plain sight : camouflage in the corporate governance of IPOs
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
I show that quality of corporate governance incrementally explains IPO pricing and performance. I facilitate this by creating a measure of corporate governance, provided by the bylaws and charter of an IPO, called camouflage. ...
Development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis models to evaluate the effects of impact injury on joint health for clinical disease treatment and prevention
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
Osteoarthritis is one of the most common, debilitating, musculoskeletal diseases in the world. Currently, there is no cure. It is well-known that a traumatic, joint injury increases the risk of developing post-traumatic ...
The culture wars & political polarization in perspective : why polarization and its perturbations are a persistant [i.e., persistent] puzzle in political science
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Political polarization in the American electorate has received a great deal of attention in recent years with most of the research focusing on social issues and their impact on electoral outcomes. However, scant attention ...

Biogeochemistry and inorganic geochemistry as indicators of the paleoenvironment and paleohydrology of the Al-Azraq Basin, Jordan
(2013)
This study investigates the biogeochemical and inorganic geochemical
indicators for past environments and paleohydrology of a high resolution sediment record
from the Al-Azraq Basin, Jordan. The second largest basin in ...

The molecular underpinnings of neuronal cell identity in the stomatogastric ganglion of cancer borealis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
the mechanisms responsible for this regulation requires a wealth of knowledge about the neural system, ranging from network connectivity and cell type identification to intrinsic neuronal excitability and transcriptomic expression. To make strides in this area...
