Somaclonal Variation in Soybeans
Tissue culture induced variation in regenerated plant progeny, up to R$\sb4$ generation (four cycles of self-pollination away from the regenerated plants) was studied. Several mutants/variants were seen, majority of them derived from the organogenic culture system. Variants such as wrinkled leaf …

Productivity variation and group optimization
Uncertain productivity exists in many empirical settings, settings that are often characterized by nonlinear relationships. This interaction between nonlinear relationships and uncertainty provides an abundance of opportunities to apply Jensen's inequality and the concepts surrounding it. Past …

Regulatory variation and human disease
… the functional consequences of genetic variation within any given transcription factor recognition sequence. To lay the groundwork for the assessment of regulatory variation in human disease, I comprehensively analyzed heritable genome-wide binding patterns of a major sequence-specific …

Cultural variation in unrealistic optimism
The recently proposed notion that self-enhancing biases are significantly implicated in mental health is being challenged by cross-cultural research which suggests that such biases may be limited to cultures which foster an independent construal of self. We examined whether individuals from a …

Antigenic Variation in Candida Albicans
The antigenicity of the germ tube and the yeast phase of Candida albicans have been compared by crossed immunoelectrophoresis, tandem-crossed immunoelectrophoresis and classical immunoelectrophoresis. Qualitative and quantitative differences between the two growth forms have been observed. One …

Towards Explaining Variation in Entrainment
… and contexts, hindering broad application. This variation, whose guiding principles are poorly understood even after decades of entrainment research, is the subject of this thesis. We begin with a comprehensive literature review that serves as the foundation of our own work and provides a …

Explaning variation in luxury consumption
This PhD study extends the existing knowledge on the consumption of luxuries, by bringing together the conspicuous consumption and luxury consumption literature with self-concept and trait theory, in order to develop a conceptual framework that explains the phenomenon of luxury consumption from a …

Variation in Past Counterfactual Constructions
The two past counterfactual constructions under investigation in this study are the past counterfactual conditional (Type 3) and the past counterfactual <em>wish</em> complement clause (PCWCC). Each of these has both a standard and variant form. The verb in the standard forms is <em>had</em> + past …

Root Problems in Human Variation
… covary with external morphology. However, this variation is poorly understood in anthropological and biological contexts. This is, in part, due to the inaccessibility of tooth roots for metric and morphological assessment. Early studies relied on x-rays, which are problematic when visualizing …

Intraspecific variation in Erica coccinea
The genus Erica is the most specious in the Cape Floristic Region, with a large range of habitats, pollination syndromes and fire survival strategies. Erica coccinea, like many other Cape Erica species, has high intraspecific variability between populations. In addition to variability in floral …

Variation des Srahlungsspektrums für neue Solarenergietechnologien
Der weltweite Bedarf an Energie steigt stetig an. Gerade im asiatischen Raum kommt es bspw. durch den wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung Chinas zu einer erhöhten Nachfrage von fossilen Brennstoffen. Noch kann dieser gedeckt werden, die Ressourcen von Erdöl, Erdgas und Kohle sind jedoch begrenzt. Nach …

Persistence of response variation and repetition
… condition, relative to baseline, the amount of variation in the Vary terminal link decreased slightly and the amount of repetition in the Repeat component remained similar. During the variable-time-schedule conditions, the amount of variation in the Vary component remained similar or decreased …
