description: Crop advancement has been greatly benefited by marker-assisted selection, next-generation sequencing, and genomics-based breeding methods which decrease selection time for breeding programs and aid in gene identification. These advancements have been particularly useful for quantitative traits, which underlie a number of agronomically important traits such as root growth and abiotic stress tolerance that have high impacts on crop yield. However, quantitative root traits are difficult to study due to obstruction by soil and the complexity of epistatic interactions. Globally, average temperatures have had an upward trend since the beginning of the twentieth century and are continuing to rise, resulting in intensification of abiotic stresses such as heat, drought, and salinity. Identification and integration of abiotic stress-responsive genes is critical for breeding high-yielding crops that are well-adapted for the predicted changing climate. Multi-method approaches are progressively accelerating this process, as well as the utilization of model species for comparative studies in genetically complex crops. Brachypodium distachyon is a model for temperate cereals which we used in Chapter 2 for the identification of a candidate gene regulating seedling root-growth rate. We used a modified QTL-Seq approach that encompassed QTL analysis, whole genome resequencing of a bulk segregant population, single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping, and expression analysis. Four QTL were identified on Chromosomes 1, 3, 4, and 5. Notably, the QTL located on chromosome 5 correlated with two SNPs located in the promoter of calmodulin-binding transcription activator 4 (CAMTA4). CAMTA4 had a 7-fold difference in transcript abundance between parental accessions that exhibit a 3-fold difference in seedling root-growth rate. In Chapter 3, we performed characterization of stress associated little protein 1 (SALP1) in B. distachyon, an abiotic stress-responsive gene found to confer salt tolerance in rice. Stable transgenic BdSALP1 lines were created for overexpression and knockdown analysis, whereas protein localization was visualized transiently in Nicotiana benthamiana. Together, these studies have shed light on genes involved in root-growth rate and abiotic stress tolerance; paving the way for future studies in related crops and examination of their importance for cereal breeding programs.

description: Cet article développe une perspective sociohistorique et théorique de l’orientation comme question sociétale et scientifique au Maroc. En fait, plusieurs thématiques se rattachent à cette question qui témoignent d’un tournant narratif émergeant : souci de soi, injonction au projet, construction de soi, qualification, insertion, employabilité, adaptabilité, réflexivité…etc. Nous essayons de problématiser cette question en soulevant l’injonction au projet dans la société marocaine. Nous décrivons ensuite le processus du passage des théories adéquationnistes aux théories constructivistes, en montrant les limites des approches adéquationnistes et positivistes, avant d’éclairer l’importance de la perspective biographique et narrative dans les pratiques d’orientation.

Testing the relationship between political cueing and environmental opinion
Creators: name: Coma, Azdren
Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Environmental policy--Public opinion--Political aspects

description: What effect does political cueing have on individual environmental opinion? This study examines the ways in which individual support for government spending to protect the environment is influenced by the political affiliation of politicians sponsoring a proposed increase. The environment is a Democratic-owned issue, and support for environmental protection measures has arguably become an important component of what it means to be a self-identified Democrat. Drawing on social identity theory I predict that, because of this, self-identified Democrats will maintain support for new federal spending to protect the environment regardless of the partisan identity of legislative sponsors. However, individual Republicans who perceive Democratic elites as a threatening are hypothesized to vary support following the political cueing of partisan sponsorship. A survey-experiment using a factorial design was conducted with unique survey data from a convenience sample of voting-age Americans who identify as either Democrats or Republicans (n=800). Respondents were presented a vignette where the partisan identity of legislative sponsors for new federal spending on environmental protection was randomly assigned. Results show that when environmental legislation is sponsored by Democratic legislators, support from Republicans drops about 12% compared to conditions where legislation is sponsored by Republicans or a bipartisan group of legislators. Support among Democrats remains the same regardless of legislative sponsorship. Finally, exploratory analysis of gender differences within parties reveals that it is mainly Republican males, and not females, who respond to outgroup cues.

description: Terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems around the globe are facing unprecedent rates of environmental change. Understanding how these changes affect behavioral mechanisms and in turn organism survival are pertinent to making predictions relating to organism resilience when faced with a challenging environment. One abiotic condition of interest to many researchers is increasing surface temperatures. It is well understood that organism function is highly dependent upon mechanisms at the biochemical and physiological level which are susceptible to changes in temperature. Changes at this level can have a rippling effect up to the level of the whole organism, though certain organisms may be more susceptible to these changes than others. Ectothermic organisms lack the ability to internally thermoregulate, many must rely on behavioral mechanisms to remain within temperatures that optimize performance. Though there has been a growing attempt to understand the potentially detrimental effects of a changing climate on ectothermic organisms, much of the existing literature focuses on an organism's behavior and survival to single long-term exposure to stressors. However, organisms rarely experience chronic stressors in their natural environment, let alone experience a single stressor at a time. This leaves the effects of cycling and interacting stressors largely unexplored. In this thesis I highlight the importance of incorporating cycling and combined environmental stressors in laboratory settings. I describe novel methodologies to determine thermal preference and thermal performance of small aquatic ectotherms using the intertidal copepod Tigriopus californicus. These methodologies demonstrate that acclimation history does influence organism performance, though it does not affect thermal preference. In addition, I explore the effects of combined stressors; temperature and oxygen, which have been suggested to increase survival during thermal stress when experienced simultaneously. Our findings suggest this combination, known as the Oxygen and Capacity Limited Thermal Tolerance may be an overgeneralized concept as survival was not mitigated to temperature exposure when exposed to hyperoxic conditions. These studies reinforce the growing need to incorporate more ecologically relevant stressors in laboratory experiments when attempting to make predictions of organism response and resilience to a changing climate.

Glutamic acid valorization through solvent-enabled decarboxylation for 2-pyrrolidone production

description: With the annual global food waste volume accumulating dramatically, the demand for a sustainable treatment is ever-growing. Glutamic acid is the most abundant amino acid component in protein-rich food waste biomass and the largest scale-produced amino acid worldwide. Therefore, its valorization has become more and more important and attractive. Herein, a state-of-the-art solvent-enabled decarboxylative conversion of L-glutamic acid into 2-pyrrolidone was proposed. The effect of different solvents, including pure water and a series of organic solvents, on the reaction pathways for L-glutamic acid was elucidated. 100 % yield of 2-pyrrolidone was successfully achieved in acetone solvent under optimized reaction condition (i.e., 200 ℃, 20 bar of N2, 30 min), with the highlight of the negative impact of residual water in acetone on this decarboxylative conversion. Surprisingly, 2-pyrrolidone was found to have an autocatalytic effect on the decarboxylation of L-glutamic acid and L-pyroglutamic acid to different extent, enhancing the reaction efficiency on the whole. This solvent-enabled decarboxylative conversion reduces the cost for noble metal catalysts, avoids harsh reaction conditions and thus paves the way for scaled-up industrial production of 2-pyrrolidone from L-glutamic acid.

Effectiveness of vitrification and vapor immersion for honey bee semen cryopreservation

description: Semen cryopreservation is a valuable conservation tool and is often used in livestock species to accelerate artificial selection of desirable traits. Recently, semen cryopreservation has been successfully introduced to honey bees, bolstering trait selection for breeders and aiding conservation efforts for threatened bee populations. Current cryopreservation methods use slow-programmable freezing to achieve long-term storage of honey bee germplasm. However, this method is costly and time consuming, making it less accessible to breeders and researchers. Additionally, the success of this method is inconsistent, producing inseminated queens with variable fertilization success, prompting the need for an alternative freezing method. Here, I tested vitrification and vapor immersion as two potential alternatives to slow-programmable freezing. With each freezing method, I frozen semen in either a CryoLock or microdialysis tube using either 20, 40, or 60% dimethyl sulfoxide as a cryoprotectant. I found that freezing honey bee semen in microdialysis tubes with vapor immersion and 20% dimethyl sulfoxide was the only combination of treatments to produce similar post-thaw sperm quality to semen frozen with slow-programmable freezing. I then instrumentally inseminated queens with this freezing method (n = 8) and compared the percentage of fertilized offspring to that produced by queens inseminated with semen frozen with standard slow-programmable freezing (n = 8), semen frozen at -1.5°C/min (half speed, n = 8), and non-frozen semen (n = 6). Several queens died prior to egg laying resulting in smaller sample sizes (n = 4, 4, 3, 2, respectively). The percentage of fertilized offspring was highest with the standard slow-programmable freezing method, but all treatments were statistically similar. No definitive conclusion can be made regarding the success of vapor immersion from the results of the queen insemination experiment; however, using vapor immersion to freeze honey bee semen in microdialysis tubes with 20% dimethyl sulfoxide did produce appreciable post-thaw sperm quality. With proper optimization of the dimethyl sulfoxide exposure and freezing rate, this freezing method may be used to provide an accessible honey bee semen cryopreservation method to slow programmable freezing.

description: Early Harvest Wine (EHW) is produced from pre-mature grapes and is a blending tool that can be used to acidify mature grape musts. EHW blending was investigated for its potential to acidify high pH red wine fermentations, as can occur in warm growing regions such as Eastern Washington State. EHW produced from Washington merlot grapes harvested at pH 2.9 was blended with pH 4.3 merlot grapes (12% v/v); this acidification method was compared with a non-acidified control and a 1.5 g/L tartaric acid treatment. Two inoculation methods, a co-inoculated treatment with yeast and bacteria and a treatment inoculated with yeast only (no bacteria) were evaluated for each acidification method. Beginning after one year, wines were analyzed for basic chemistry, a sensory descriptive analysis, and metabolomics by GC-MS and LC-MS. The EHW treatment introduced higher initial concentrations of malic acid, which produced a smaller pH decrease and more lactic acid after fermentation than in the tartaric acid treatment. The EHW-treated wines were rated lower for fruit aromas and higher for vegetal aromas relative to the other acidification treatments. Metabolite analysis indicated that the EHW treatment had lower concentrations of fruity esters and alcohols, and differed for many unknown observations detected by GC and LC-MS. This was the first time that these alternative inoculation strategies were evaluated with EHW; the chemical and sensory differences between these two methods were small. In conclusion, EHW influenced other sensory properties in the blended musts than acidity and the blending percentage used in this study had less of an effect on pH than pure tartaric acid addition.

description: Metal-based catalysts have found widespread use in performing reactions too difficult for non-catalytic methods. The rare metals often used in these catalysts have raised concerns over their cost and toxicity. Catalysts made from more abundant metals tend to be less reactive than their precious metal counterparts. Ligand structures capable of redox activity have been used to enhance the performance of metal catalysts. The behavior of redox active ligands in metal-catalyzed reactions has been described as “metal-like”. The “metal-like” behavior of this class of ligands has prompted exploration into whether metal atoms are needed to perform catalytic reactions. A simplified view of a catalyst, consisting of an electron reservoir and substrate dock, has been put forth. The fluorescent dye, 4,4-difluoro-4-bora-3a,4a-diaza-s-indacene (BODIPY) was chosen for the role of electron reservoir due to its reversible and tunable electrochemistry. The simplest chemical transformation, reduction of protons, was selected for study. Organic Brønsted bases, being proton acceptors, were selected to fill the role of substrate dock. The prototype proton reduction complex developed from the previous description, 8-tetramethylguanidino-BODIPY (BoTMG), was treated with sources of H2 equivalents. The product of BoTMG and hydrazine was investigated, but not ultimately identified. The synthesis and characterization of hydrazine-, amine-, azide-, and phosphazene-appended BODIPY complexes is described. The synthesis of theses complexes is aimed at understanding the influence of BODIPY-based redox events on the transfer of hydrogen atoms. This work breaks further ground toward establishing the principles by which catalyst complexes composed solely of main group elements may be constructed.
High isolation and high gain microstrip antenna system for wideband in-band full-duplex communications
Creators: name: Nguyen, Tuan Thanh
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2021
Subjects: Microstrip antennas

description: As the wireless communication devices are becoming more numerous, the available radio wave spectrum is becoming increasingly congested due to the traditional data transmission practices such as frequency- and time-division multiplexing. These methods require transmission (TX) and reception (RX) at either different frequencies or at different times decreasing the spectral efficiency. Researchers are exploring new wireless spectrum standards to address over crowded spectrum. One of these standards is full-duplex communications which allows for transmitting and receiving on the same frequency at the same time. In recent years, this technology has been broadly investigated and proved its significant role in various aspects of the technological advancements. In this thesis, three different two-port microstrip antenna system designs are proposed with high isolation between transmission and reception ports for simultaneous transmit and receive (STAR) applications, also known as full-duplex wireless communications. The first design contains two antenna pairs, each of which is composed of two identical single-ended microstrip patch antennas operating at 12 GHz. Each element in this array is fed 180° out-of-phase by utilizing rat-race hybrid couplers making the whole system differential-fed. The second design proposes a dual polarized antenna array, which comprises two arrays. Each of which is composed of four identical single-ended microstrip rectangular patch antenna operating at 12 GHz. The corporate feeding technique is used to feed the first array, while the second array is fed using the series-fed method. The last design is a differentially driven log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) system. This antenna system is comprised of two pairs of LPDAs operating in the X-band spectrum from 8 GHz to 12 GHz. Simulation results of three designs show large isolation S21 < – 45 dB through the entire band of interest while measured results approach S21 < – 40 dB in a reflective environment. Moreover, the measured results are in good agreement with simulations achieving high isolation bandwidth. These proposed systems offer low cross-polarization between E-plane and H-plane. They also exhibit good impedance matching, reasonable gain values, high efficiency, which has common applications in radar, weather monitoring, air traffic control, or satellite communications.

description: Own-rooted grapevines Vitis vinifera L. cvs. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Syrah were used in this study to better understand the natural cessation of sugar import into grape berries, as well as the timing of this event. Active sugar import via the phloem increases the sugar content in grape berries. As berry weight fluctuates the concentration of these sugars may increase due to water loss from transpiration or late season dehydration. This two-year study was conducted in 2017 and 2018 in a commercial vineyard located in Benton City, Washington, USA. Grape berry weight, total soluble solids (TSS), and sugar content were measured approximately weekly from the “hard green berry” phase (late lag-phase of berry development) through ripening, along with a host of correlative attributes considered to be standard measurements of quality and maturity, and which are influential when making harvest decisions. These additional measurements included titratable acidity (TA), pH, malate, and glucose + fructose. The principal measurement marking cessation of sugar import into berries, thus indicating the end of phloem influx, is when the total sugar per berry (i.e., sugar content) reaches a final plateau. This plateau can be independent of subsequent changes in TSS (i.e., sugar concentration). The three varieties reached maximum sugar contents varying from 0.26-0.42 grams. Each variety experienced a slowdown and plateau of sugar accumulation around 4 weeks after veraison, sugar content then remained stable until seasons end. Significant weight loss was observed in Cabernet Sauvignon, while Merlot and Syrah showed trends towards weight loss after sugar content reached a plateau. Cabernet Sauvignon lost an average of 13% of total berry weight, Merlot lost an average of 9% and Syrah lost an average 6%. Additionally, increases in TSS after the apex of maximum berry weight can be attributed to a concentration effect, not continued sugar import into grape berries via the phloem. Most of the changes in titratable acidity occurred within the first 3 weeks of ripening. This was characterized by a loss of nearly 85% across each variety and year. pH followed a similar yet inverse trend, rising steadily in the first 3 weeks of ripening.

description: My paintings provide new perspectives to everyday spaces. In this body of work, I explore the following contrasting spatial themes, Distance & Closeness; Interior & Exterior; Cityscape & Landscape; Spiritual & Physical; and Presence & Absence. Included with the large-scale paintings are wooden cut-outs which extend beyond the canvas and serve as a visual and emotional extension of the painterly language. Through this series, my work strives to make the audience aware of their own bodies as a container of experiences which interacts with and are influenced by the complexity of spaces around them. This is pursued through the act of visually inverting flipping, turning, shifting, and rearranging personal surroundings. Within the structure of my painting practice I have created a lattice to interweave narrative, color theory, and personal reflection. These paintings contain images that are more than everyday spaces; these are emotionally and personally charged places that I have selected to paint. They are remembered spaces from my past that I have questioned, altered, revisited, and tried to see in a new way. What lies at the root of each of these images is how we simultaneously alter ourselves to our environment and how these spaces are altered by our presence.

Figs. 7–9, 13
Type material. Holotype, male with the label " CH, N Sichuan, SW Baima 32 43 26 N / 104 15 58 E H= 2640 m, 22.06.2006, Belousov & Kabak leg." Paratypes: 2 females with the same data as the holotype and 1 male with the label “ CH, S Sichuan, 35km NNW Mianning, NW of Lajiajia upper Anteriorst zone 3400 m, 4.08.2002, Belousov & Kabak leg."
Description. Holotype, male (Fig. 7). Body length 6.8 mm. Body black, shiny, legs, genal margins and lateral margins of pronotum somewhat reddish-black. Clypeus rounded, without medial emargination. Genae feebly distinct, genal and frontoclypeal sutures indistinct. Eyes very small in dorsal view. Frons densely and evenly punctate (punctures separated by less than a puncture diameter, sometimes touching). Clypeus sparsely punctate with minute punctures.
Pronotum coarsely punctate (punctures separated by 1–2 diameters on disc, becoming denser laterally). Lateral and basal margins coarsely punctate, posterior angles rounded and not serrate.
Scutellum triangular, impunctate basally, shiny.
Elytra with strong humeral teeth. Striae deep, punctate (punctures of striae separated by 2–3 puncture diameters; each puncture bears 1 minute yellow seta). Intervals slightly convex, impunctate.
Anterior tibiae with short lateral teeth; tibial spur slightly curved inward. Upper spur of hind tibia slightly longer than tarsomere 1, tarsomere 1 shorter than tarsomere 2–4 combined.
Parameres relatively long, their apices rounded in lateral view, with small feebly sclerotised area (Fig. 8). Internal sac of aedeagus with 3 sclerites one of which is somewhat rounded, with small process (indicated in Fig. 9).
Female. Distinguished from male by the anterior tibial spur not curved inward and by the more sparsely punctate frons.
Variability. Body length of paratypes vary from 6.5–7.0 mm, otherwise, except for the sexual dimorphism, they are similar to the holotype.
Differential diagnosis. Aegialia (Silluvia) igori sp. n. can be separated from other described Silluvia species by the relatively depressed and rounded (in lateral view) apices of parameres and by the shape of internal sac sclerites (Fig. 9). It is most similar to A. shashi but can be separated from this species by the indistinct frontoclypeal suture and by the clypeus punctate with sparse, minute punctures. From A. (S.) kabaki and A. (S.) wassuensis, it can be separated by posterior angles of pronotum not serrate.
Distribution. Aegialia igori sp. n. is known from two localities in Sichuan Province of China (Fig. 13). Etymology. The species is named after Igor Belousov.

description: Survival rates for cancer patients have improved drastically since the introduction of chemotherapy. However, it is not fully understood what the effects of chemotherapy may be in subsequent generations. A previous study in humans examined the sperm of individuals who were treated with chemotherapy during puberty and discovered differentially methylated regions years removed from the final treatment. This indicates that toxic therapeutics can induce epimutations in the germline, a finding supported across the literature. Studies in a variety of models including domestic livestock support that environmental exposures such as diet, toxicants, and stress induce non-genetic modifications in generations removed from the initial exposure. The overall goal is to test the hypothesis that treatment with the chemotherapy drug ifosfamide during puberty can induce germline epimutations which alter phenotypes including rates of disease through at least the grand offspring by the mechanism of epigenetic transgenerational inheritance. This research will help to understand the impacts of ancestral exposure to chemotherapy. From these findings, physicians can better understand what precautionary measures need to be taken prior to chemotherapy. This way the patient can still receive treatment, while minimizing the impact on future generations. Future investigations will be necessary to examine if other common chemotherapy drugs result in similar epimutations.

description: We discuss here the characterization of LIGO data through the use of higher order statistics, specifically the bispectrum and the bicoherence. These studies represent a new type of analysis of data from the interferometers, in that existing tools are generally limited to the realm of second order statistics. To this end, we have developed and tested a software tool capable of carrying out such experiments. Because the tool began development and reached a working version by September of 2015, it was available to be used in the study of data around what turned out to be the first direct detection of gravitational waves. Certain interesting features were noted around this time, and were analyzed and brought to the attention of the LIGO Scientific Collaboration Detector Characterization team, serving as part of the lengthy vetting process that took place prior to the final public announcement of the detection. Following this, the tool was again employed in analysis of data from subsequent detections, most notably from the first detection of gravitational waves from inspiraling binary neutron stars on August 17, 2017. Following this initial use and employment, the tool continued to be used as a third-order follow-up for other existing second-order routines. The use of machine learning in tandem with human-based classification for the study of recurrent features in the bispectrum and bicoherence has been considered, and we discuss here the beginnings of such a database.

description: For this research two studies were conducted. Study 1 asked the participants about the types of objectification they viewed when looking at various alcohol advertisements. There were other factors considered including spending, morality, and socio-economic status. Emotional responses toward the alcohol advertisements were compared to those who were involved in Greek life and those who were not in Greek life. Although it was found in Study 1 that being in Greek life did not cause the participant to view more objectification, the amount one spends on beauty products and clothing are a factor in the level of objectification a participant finds in an alcohol advertisement. Also, morality can cause participants to view more objectification in advertisements. Overall, socio-economic status also had an effect on the level or morality and spending habits. In Study 2, three alcohol advertisements were viewed each with their own level of objectification: extremely objectifying, semi-objectifying and neutral. Four positive and four negative emotions were compared to each of the three advertisements. The results show that the only significant results was “happy” toward the neutral alcohol advertisement and those in Greek life viewed this advertisement as “happy” more often than those who were not in Greek life. In addition, those in Greek life were more active on social media than those who were not in Greek life. Of all the social media platforms, it was found that Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram are the best place to reach this population with regards to advertisements. Regardless of external variables of spending habits, morality, parental education, and socio-economic status, participants were more susceptible to alcohol advertisements due to age, Greek life association, and social media use. Due to the constant reminders found on social media and the objectifying images that are connected to alcohol advertising, this research concludes that Greek life members are more involved in social media, which leads to more positive emotions toward objectifying alcohol advertisements.
