Mocha tyrosinase variant : a new flavour of cat coat coloration
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2019)
A novel coloration named ‘mocha' has been identified in the Burmese cat breed from Thailand. Tyrosinase (TYR) mutations are known to be associated with coat coloration in cats, such as the sable Burmese, the points of the ...
Three essays on demand for meat and dairy products evidence from household level data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Dairy and meat demand is not only influenced by prices and income but also by generational cohort (Millennial, Gen X, Baby Boomers, and Traditionalists), race, and other demographic factors. This study examines the demand ...
Associations between psychosis risk and emotional distress disorders with cortical surface morphometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Neuroimaging studies have consistently found structural cortical abnormalities in schizophrenia, especially in structural hubs. However, it ...
Geochronologic and thermochronologic constraints on the Mesozoic to Cenozoic deformation history of southeastern California
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
that distance and has accommodated at least an equivalent amount of displacement. To test this hypothesis, this study uses detrital zircon U-Pb dating of two formations proposed to have shared provenance to establish depositional ages and sediment sources...
Mathematical modeling of intoxicated risky decision-making
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
The goal of the present project was to use mathematical models of decision-making to enhance understanding of processes underlying alcohol-related risk-taking. The project aimed to (1) model alcohol effects on decision-making ...

(Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI) at the University of Missouri-Columbia, 2006-06)
This report describes the water quality data and the model that were used to develop the bacteria total maximum daily load of the Little Sac River in Greene and Polk counties. It is the final TMDL report sent to EPA by the ...
Equivalence test of high dimensional microarray data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The Booth lab at the University of Missouri has selectively-bred Wistar rats for low (LVR) and high (HVR) voluntary running behavior as a model for ...
Dynamic links between short-term deformation and long-term tectonics: a finite element study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Geodetic and geological data for crustal deformation are significantly different in many places. This discrepancy may indicate different strain rates ...
An empirical study of advertised retail meat prices in a metropolitan area
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1975)
The major portion of all food items is ultimately sold through retail outlets, most of which are large supermarkets. Since market conduct in food retailing notably affects social welfare, it warrants empirical examination. ...
