Regulation of Gene Expression by Non-coding RNAs in Arabidopsis and Brachypodium
(2014)
Expansion of high-throughput sequencing technology has increased our understanding
in the importance of pervasive transcription and the resulting indispensable molecules, noncoding
RNAs (ncRNAs). A significant effort has ...
Between the old and the new : Friedrich Gentz, 1764-1832
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
This dissertation reviews the life and political impact of Friedrich Gentz, who was born in Breslau, Prussia, in 1764, and died in Vienna, Austria, in 1832. Though remembered today as only a second- (or even third)- tier ...
Neutron Response Vectorization and Optimization of Moderating Neutron Spectrometers for Active Interrogation
(University of Missouri–Kansas City, 2015)
The detection of special nuclear material (SNM) is no trivial task; the low activity of isotopes such as 235U and the ease of shielding make their passive detection virtually impossible in the maritime environment. Active ...
Adi Shankara at Mandhata and Mahishmati
(Columbia, MO: Om Shanti Mandiram, 2012)
This piece is a collection of select email messages exchanged among some OM devotees on the subject for more than a decade. These have been presented here in their natural order and sequence as they occurred just to show ...
Organoisocyanates: the conformational stability determination by infrared, raman and microwave spectroscopy and ab initio calculation
(University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012)
Conformational stability studies have been carried out for several quasilinear organoisocyanates and organoisothiocyanates. The infrared and Raman spectra in the gaseous, liquid and solid phases have been recorded as well ...
Assessing the effects of anticoagulant rodenticides on non-target fish species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Invasive rat species have negatively affected island ecosystems contributing to the decline and extinction of many endemic species. The eradication of ...
Value, Money, and Accounting for Pax Ecologica: Contouring a Price-Coordination System for Ecological-Economic Provisioning
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
The objective of this dissertation is to conceptualize and contour an alternative
provisioning system (“Pax Ecologica,” “ecocentric provisioning”) to address, account for, and
coordinate humankind’s scientific-technological ...
Sexual assault Prevention Programs: Examining the effects on Middle School Adolescents' Attitudes and Behaviors
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)
Sexual violence has been prevalent in the United States for decades. There is a great concern that the youth of this nation is becoming more susceptible to the violence at younger ages. Some schools have begun implementation ...
Development of a multispectral sensor for crop canopy temperature measurement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
The Multispectral System for Imaging of a Crop Canopy (MSICC) that combines a miniature long wavelength infrared (LWIR) camera with a visible camera was developed to capture a field of view and derive a plant specific ...
Social influence in a 3D virtual learning environment for individuals with autism spectrum disorders
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
This study examined the impact of avatar representation and social presence on social influence in a three-dimensional virtual learning environment for individuals with autism spectrum disorders. Four male participants ...
Forging a national diet : beef and the political economy of plenty in postwar America
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Few foods items are more associated with the United States than beef yet it was not until the 1950s that Americans ate more beef than any other meat. The triumph of mass beef consumption was not accidental or a preordained ...
Conformational and Structural Investigation of Substituted Hydrocarbons and Ring Compounds by Vibrational and Microwave Spectroscopy
(2016)
The physiochemical properties of a molecule of interest are usually obtained from
its molecular structure, and it involves the orientation of one part of the molecule about a
particular bond with respect to the rest ...
Computational studies of three chemical systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
The subject of this dissertation is the use of electronic structure calculations to examine and supplement the experimental observations of three different chemical systems. Both ab initio and DFT methods have been employed. ...
