Carbon nanotube (CNT) composites have been of significant research interest in a wide range of applications. For electromagnetic applications, simplifying assumptions regarding the distribution and shapes of the CNTs are ...
Mechanisms of Alphavirus Midgut dissemination in the Mosquito, Aedes aegypti
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The research work of this thesis has focused on the midgut escape barrier and the dissemination mechanism of alphaviruses in Ae. aegypti. Primarily, we identified and characterized Ae. aegypti MMPs that are seemingly ...
Brassicales to Brassica : integrating phylogenomics and population genomics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
The Brassicales are an economically important order of flowering plants. Many crop species such as kale, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, canola oil, capers, and papaya, as well as the model plant organism, Arabidopsis ...
Environmental and medical applications of molecularly imprinting polymer sensor for the detection of progesterone
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
in the 1-100 [mu]g L-1 range; with LOD of 0.5 [mu]g L-1, reaching the detected range of hormone in natural waters. Furthermore, hydrogel MIP films were successfully tested in various real water matrices, they revealed satisfactory recognition ability...
Increasing methionine content of soybean using CRISPR/Cas9 and developing machine learning predictive models
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is an important protein source for both humans and animals. Its relatively low cost combined with its excellent nutritive value has enabled soybeans to attain elite stature as the world's ...
Study of the chemical composition of a full-term bovine foetus
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1912)
Attention has been frequently directed to the prenatal development of various animals, as well as of man. This embryonic development of the bovine foetus is to be the subject of special investigation by the Agricultural College of the University...
Effects of the bovine slick mutation on heat stress responses and hair growth in mice
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
The bovine slick mutations result from more than one allele variant causing a slick hair phenotype and improved thermotolerance to elevated ambient temperatures in cattle. These mutations result in the truncation of the ...
All of the doors are closed : a hermeneutic phenomenological study exploring Black gay male experiences of stigma in Black church organizing
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
The African American community has become a key site of resistance to accepting same-sex relations in the United States. Scholars have suggested that this resistance is most accurately explained by Black religious affiliations ...
Characterization of the genetic landscape of feline oral squamous cell carcinoma
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Over 94 million domestic cats are susceptible to cancers and other common and rare diseases. While cancer treatment in cats increasingly mirrors that available in humans, treatment failures are more frequent. There are no ...
Genetics in practice : applications of quantitative genetics to environment and educational pursuits
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
"The ability to elucidate quantitative trait architecture and introduce potentially beneficial traits makes introgression a useful tool. Unfortunately, due to the nature of inheritance there are certainly limitations to ...
Development of a multi-omics approach to identify highly correlated transcriptomic, proteomic and metabolic signatures in maize B73 and FR697 drought stressed nodal roots
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Maize is one of the most important crops grown in the continental US and worldwide, and as such, major interest is directed towards understanding the impact of drought conditions on maize growth and development. Nodal ...
Demonstration of highly efficient dual gRNA CRISPR/Cas9 editing of the homeologous GmFAD2-1A and GmFAD2-1B genes to yield a high oleic, low linoleic and ?-linolenic acid phenotype in soybean
(BioMed Central Ltd., 2019)
Background: CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing is now revolutionizing the ability to effectively modify plant genomes in the absence of efficient homologous recombination mechanisms that exist in other organisms. However, soybean ...
Developing molecular genetic tools for gene discovery in soybean (glycine max)
