Assesment Of Ammonia Volatility From Fall Surface-Applied Liquid Dairy Manure, Katie Campbell-Nelson
Assesment Of Ammonia Volatility From Fall Surface-Applied Liquid Dairy Manure, Katie Campbell-Nelson
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Ammonia emissions from dairy and livestock operations are of significant environmental and human health concern in the United States. Conservation of ammonia from fall surface-applied manure could benefit farmers by retaining nitrogen for use by crops in the spring growing season. The primary goal of this research was to investigate a management strategy for mitigating ammonia volatility from cow manure at the time of field application with no incorporation in the fall before snow fall. The hypothesis is that application of manure in cooler fall temperatures will slow the rate of ammonia volatilization. The objective was achieved by measuring temperature …

Functional Analysis Of Receptor-Like Kinases In Pollen-Pistil Interactions In Arabidopsis Thaliana, Mini Aggarwal
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Rac/Rop GTPases are molecular switches in plants that control the growth of polarized cells such as pollen tubes and root hairs, differentiation, development, actin dynamics, production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and disease resistance. These small GTPases are activated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) that replace GDP for GTP and are referred to as RopGEFs in plants. To identify upstream components of the RopGEF regulated signaling pathways, GEF1 from Arabidopsis thaliana was used as a bait to screen a seedling cDNA library in a yeast two-hybrid system. This yielded members of a small family of the Catharanthus roseus Receptor-like …
