(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Households participating in, or eligible for, USDA's Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) deploy many food acquisition strategies to enhance their food security because the SNAP program is intended to supplement rather than provide all a...
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...
Dynamic analysis of complex panel count data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
approach, an extensive simulation study is conducted and suggests that it works well in practical situations. An application to the China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) study is provided. In practice, there could exist more than one type of event...
The effects of 6-weeks of resistance training on the gut microbiome in young adults with overweight and obesity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
and obesity (BMI 25-45 kg/m2) were recruited to participate in this randomized controlled trial. Participants were randomized into 1 of 2 groups: RT (n=17) which participated in a 6-week resistance training program (3 days/week), or control (CT) (n=16) which...
Lifestyle treatment in the regression of NASH: insulin resistance, lipid synthesis, and methodological innovation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
(liquid chromatography mass spectrometry) were used to track the synthesis of CERs within hepatic tissues of mice consuming 13C3 15N L-serine dissolved in their water and a high fat (60 percent energy, HFD) or a control (low fat, 20 percentE, CD) diet...
Simulating prehistoric population dynamics and adaptive behavioral responses to the environment in Long House Valley and Black Mesa, Arizona
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
This project contributes to our understanding of human adaptability to environmental stress and climate change in Long House Valley and Black Mesa, Arizona from AD 800-1350. This was accomplished through the development ...
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...
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...
Switchgrass responses to manganese availability
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Manganese (Mn) is an essential micronutrient and has a broad range of functions for all plant growth and reproduction. It plays a crucial role in NAD-ME C4 photosynthesis, including as a constituent of the water splitting ...
Utilizing radiotracer and genetic approaches to determine the regulation of sucrose export in maize leaves
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] To sustain plant growth, development, and ultimately crop yield, carbohydrates must be transported from their site of synthesis in leaves to distant parts of the plant...
Characterizing hormesis and the in vitro effects of sub-lethal fungicide exposure in sclerotinia homoeocarpa
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Dollar spot, caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa F.T. Bennett, is the most economically important disease of turfgrass. Dollar spot reduces aesthetics and playability of turfgrass, and when left uncontrolled can result in ...
Drainage water management practices affect water quality, soil properties, and crop production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
Several agricultural management practices such as terrace construction, cover crops (CC), drainage water recycling (DWR), free drainage (FD), and 4R nitrogen (N) management can influence water quality, soil properties, and crop production...
Agroforestry buffer, biomass crop, and grain crop effects on soil quality and soil water use
