Nitrogen management strategies to improve corn growth and reduce soil greenhouse gas emissions from claypan soils
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of urea fertilizer placement with and without the addition of a nitrification inhibitor (NI) on corn yield, N use efficiency (NUE), and cumulative soil N[2]O emissions on a Northeastern Missouri claypan...
Evaluating sampling methods and investigating distribution and richness of fish and amphibians in Missouri wetlands
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Freshwater wetlands are some of the most imperiled ecosystems on the planet, meaning species that depend on them are at great risk. In Missouri, wetland filling and drainage...
Molecular genetic analysis of DRO1 genes in soybean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Under drought conditions, a strong and deep root system provides advantages for exploring and exploiting moisture in deeper soil layers where water is still sufficient. In rice...
Rendering assistance to best advantage: the development of women's activism in Kansas City, 1870 to World War I
(2013)
This study examines the rise of women's activism in Kansas City between the
opening of the Hannibal railroad bridge in 1869 and World War I. Women's efforts over
the course of nearly 50 years to emerge from the domestic ...
A remote sensing analysis of the grand river grasslands using sentinel-2 satellite imagery : a comparison of land-use / land-cover classifications using per-pixel and object-oriented procedures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The important prerequisites for the proper use of land is to know how the land is covered and how it is being used currently. In this study, land-use and land...
Analysis and design of reinforced concrete wall systems for blast
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Building envelope is the first and most critical line of defense for a structure against external explosion. Building envelope can be divided into two categories; structural...
Beginning's ends : new senses of ending and the eighteenth-century novel
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] This dissertation argues that an examination of innovative endings in both canonized and forgotten eighteenth-century prose fiction contributes to our understanding of the early...
Killing them with kindness: a meso-dialectical study of the conceptual formation of humane and inhumane in the no-kill animal shelter movement
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This research begins with one question: What is humane about humane? In the context of the no-kill animal shelter movement this study examines the social processes through which...
Impedance and plasmonic based MEMS sensors for chemical and biological applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI-COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The first project is implementing a biosensor for simultaneous detection of Salmonella serogroups. Foodborne pathogens cause millions of infections annually...
Impacts of suspended and deposited sediment on benthic invertebrates and fishes in a Missouri Ozark stream
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Sediment is suspected in the decline of sensitive-aquatic organisms in the Osage River basin of Missouri. In this study, I monitored sediment dynamics and evaluated corresponding linkages with benthic invertebrate and fish assemblages as it related...
Molecular mechanisms of enzyme dysfunction in human phosphoglucomutase-1 deficiency
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Human phosphoglucomutase-1 (PGM1) belongs to the [alpha]-D-phosphohexomutase superfamily, an ancient lineage of enzymes critical for carbohydrate metabolism. PGM1 catalyzes the interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and ...
