What's on the label?
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2016)
The Nutrition facts label give us information about servings, calories, fat, fiber, sodium and some vitamins and minerals. Ingredients are listed by weight. The ingredient with the greatest amount of weight is listed first; the ingredient...
Prairie stream ecology : temporal and spatial patterns of macroinvertebrates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
patches to enable recolonization of streams after disturbance. Leptophlebia konza Burian was thought to be restricted to its type locality of Konza Prairie, Kansas; however, a population was discovered at Hi Lonesome Prairie in Missouri during an extensive...
Characterization of agroforestry feedstocks and their biochars and their effects on soil greenhouse gas emissions in a floodplain soil
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The temperature at which biochar (biocharcoal) is produced is a major factor that determines its chemical and structural characteristics. The objectives of this research were to assess the effects of feedstock source among ...
Three essays on phosphorus runoff and water quality
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Water pollution caused by nutrients, and the resulting eutrophication, have increased over time. This water pollution is increasingly caused by non-point source pollution, both...
Population history at the microscale : craniometrics of the Cayo Santiago macaques
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Being able to understand the effects of relatedness on adult cranial morphology has implications for inferring population histories, and for informing us about the influence of social behaviors on these patterns of population ...
Motivation for smoking and smoking cessation : a self-determination theory investigation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nicotine dependence is conceptualized as a disorder of motivation. Initial drug use is goal-directed, but with the development of dependence it becomes increasingly routinized...
Characterization of skeletal muscle in mouse models of osteogenesis imperfecta and myostatin deficiency
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heritable connective tissue disorder hallmarked by bone fragility resulting primarily from mutations in the pro[alpha]1(I) or pro[alpha]2(I...
Applications of ancestry estimation in cattle population genetics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Accounting for ancestry and cryptic population structure is important in population genetic data analysis. The estimation of ancestry can help elucidate the effects of admixture or stratification on allele and genotype ...
Integrating cover crops into crop rotations in upstate Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
"There is an increasing emphasis on management strategies such as reduced tillage, use of cover crops, and implementation of conservation practices (i.e. terraces, no-till, and cropping systems) in Missouri cropping systems. By combining best...
Impact of social networks on well-being : evidence from Latino immigrants in non-urban Missouri communities
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
, and linking have positive impacts on Latino immigrant's well-being in rural areas of Missouri. It is hypothesized further that these social resources are conditioned by acculturation and the context of reception, which might reduce or enhance the impact...
Soil characteristics and subsequent corn development following partial corn residue removal in a no-till, corn-soybean rotation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)
treatment increased soil ammonium-N concentration, soil water content at R1, minimum and average soil temperature at corn emergence (VE). Early, median and late emerging corn plants of each residue and cover crop treatment were also tracked throughout...
Docosahexaenoic acid and lipid peroxidation products : insights from studies with microglial cells and mouse brain
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Oxidative stress is known to play an important role in neurodegenerative diseases. Microglia are the primary innate immune cells in the central nervous system. Using BV-2...

(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Selected fruit and leaf volatiles were assessed to determine their attractiveness to Drosophila suzukii Matsumura (Diptera: Drosophilidae). Two- and four-choice assays were...
