Establishing a foundation for large DNA transfer to artificial minichromosomes and B insert platforms in maize
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
In plants, conventional genetic engineering methods limit the number of available traits that could potentially improve the quality of agriculture. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and biolistic bombardment are tools used in transferring genes...
Development and implementation of an underwater system for interface wave measurements
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Measuring shear wave velocity profiles has become integral to geotechnical site investigation both on land and offshore. Obtaining accurate near-surface profiles in soft marine sediments can be expensive and time consuming ...

Bayesian cusp regression and linear mixed model
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
First of all, we introduce the Bayesian mixture way of solving the Cusp Catastrophe model, which is designed to deal with piece-wise continuous outcomes. Simulation and real data analysis show that the new method beats the ...
Issues in Development and Adoption of Genetically Modified (GM) Wheats
(AgBioForum, 2003)
There are several contentious issues remaining in the development of genetically modified (GM) wheats. This paper summarizes current knowledge and critical issues for commercialization including evolution of GM wheats, ...
Inferring the environmental conditions present during early tetrapod terrestrialization from skeletal [delta]18O values
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
To test the extent of marine influence in the Joggins Formation, Nova Scotia, Canada and the possible habitat segregation and the net moisture balance at the Red Hill roadcut exposure of the Duncannon Member of the Catskill ...
Habitat selection and movement by spotted bass and shorthead redhorse downstream of a hydropeaking dam in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
telemetry (from April 2016 to June 2017) to determine the habitat selection and daily and seasonal movement of two native fishes downstream of a hydropeaking dam on the Osage River, Missouri, where river stage may fluctuate up to 5 m daily. We selected two...
Adoption of organic farming systems in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Organic agricultural production in Missouri has grown since the inception of national organic production and labeling standards in 2002. Underlying the growth of certified organic operations and land area in Missouri are producers' motivations...
Reconsidering the paleorange of Fagus grandifolia
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
One of the major consequences of forecasted future climate change is the redistribution of plant life due to species migrations and extinctions in response to these changes. This has caused many scientists to look at the ...
