Toxicogenomics of Diabrotica virgifera virgifera leconte in response to eCry3.1Ab-expressing transgenic maize
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
In modern agricultural systems, insect pests are constantly facing stresses from natural factors and pest management. Strong selection pressure results in evolution of insect resistance to control substances such as chemical ...
New perspective on the role of conceptus estrogens in conceptus development, maternal recognition, and the establishment of pregnancy in pigs.
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
The proposed signal for maternal recognition of pregnancy in pigs is estrogen, produced by the elongating conceptus. To understand the role of estrogen in porcine conceptus elongation and pregnancy establishment, a loss ...

Effects of Selected Contaminants on the Physical, Chemical, and Geotechnical Properties of Aquifer Solid
(2014)
contaminants on the hydraulic conductivity of sand. Bulk sand samples from the Missouri River Valley aquifer— a major source of groundwater supply in the U.S. Midwest— were collected for this study. Sand samples, representing the aquifer and vadose zone...
Examination of metabolic and regulatory networks of desulfovibrio species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2004)
The sulfate-reducing bacteria are a morphologically diverse group of organisms characterized by the ability to couple the enzymatic reduction of sulfate to energy production and growth. This metabolic activity has profound ...
Unpaved road detection using optimized log Gabor filter banks
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
The revised unpaved road detection system (RURD) is a novel method for detecting unpaved roads in an arid environment from color imagery collected by a forward-looking camera mounted on a moving platform. The objective is ...
Exploring the impact of peracetic acid on bacterial regrowth and plasmid release and developing a novel whole-cell biosensor to monitor the expression of quorum sensing genes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Peracetic acid (PAA or CH3COOOH) is a promising alternative to chlorine-based disinfectants for water and wastewater treatment due to its strong antimicrobial properties and low...
Knowledge construction, social identity and social network structure in completely online groups
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
. This mixed methods study examines the development of eight completely online groups in a CSCL course held at the University of Missouri during the summer of 2008. The principal contribution of this work is a new and deeper understanding of completely online...
Rebuilding the soul : churches and religion in Bavaria, 1945-1960
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
After twelve years of Nazi rule and with Germany in total ruin, the Catholic and Protestant churches sought to re-Christianize German society. Bringing Germans back to Christ was seen as the only way to make good on the ...
High valent uranium dioxo and imido complexes : synthesis and structure
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)

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 ...
Professional identity and curricular construction : a study of teacher interaction with mathematics curricula of two types
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
In some school settings, teachers are asked to teach courses utilizing textbooks with different instructional designs and different expectations for teaching. For example, for one class, teachers may be expected to teach ...
