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...
The influence of body mass and body composition on bone functional adaptation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
The proposed dissertation follows a three article format. The articles are distinct, but each pertains to the same subject of research. The first article applies structural equation modeling to factors influencing bone ...
Development of high protein soybean experimental lines with enhanced sulfur amino acid content
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Soybean is one of the most important field crops grown in the United States. Commercial soybeans contain about 36 - 40 [percent] protein and 18 - 20 [percent] oil, by dry weight...
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...
Transaction costs and market thinness in crop byproduct markets
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
Studies in crop byproduct literature have looked more at the nutrient impacts, rather than analytical cost implications of crop byproducts in livestock feed rations. Thin market studies stated the lack of product volume ...
Uncovering limitations and opportunities in nitrogen fixation in soybean using genetic mapping and transgenic approaches
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 8/1/2024] Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is one of the most valuable crops world-wide and is the most cultivated legume. Symbiotic N fixation (SNF) evolved as it confers a competitive advantage to soybean in environments where N...
Volatile and sensory analysis of raw soy slurries and aged-bean soymilk produced from novel soybean cultivars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
processing for deodorization; however, the process can affect nutrition and protein functionality. Addressing soy off-flavors from a genetic perspective of the soybean may allow for a reduction in off-flavors with preservation of protein functionality...
Top-soil root architecture characteristics of obsolete and modern soybean cultivars and shoot and seed nutrient contents
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI--COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Soybean (Glycine max Merr.) is one of the most important cash crops worldwide. It is widely used to produce oil and protein for food and animal feed. Soybean grain...
Canopy recruitment dynamics in naturally regenerated longleaf pine (pinus palustris) woodlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
The ecological and cultural values of the longleaf pine (Pinus palustris) ecosystem, in combination with an approximately 97 percent loss in historic range, has led to increasing interest in ecosystem restoration and ...
