Assessment Of The Semantic Knowledge Network In Older Adults With Familial History Of Alzheimer's Disease
… has demonstrated the usefulness of examining the temporal gradient for long-term semantic knowledge in identification of such individuals. The assessment of the temporal gradient within varying levels of knowledge specificity, however, has received considerably less attention. In this study, we …

Resource dynamics and positive and negative interactions between plants in arid systems / Jane Prider.
… overall outcome of plant interactions along a temporal gradient of resource availability changes from positive during interpulses to negative during pulses. Examines negative interactions between 4 co-dominant chenopod scrubs in arid Acacia papyrocarpa woodlands. Negative interactions were more …

Investigating Causal Relationships between Global Change and Insect Interaction Networks: Insights into Dietary Specialization, Interaction Diversity, and Disturbances
… quantifying effects of biotic and abiotic gradients on dietary specialization, interaction diversity, and related attributes of arthropod communities. My focus on how specialization varies across gradients and is affected by global change addressed a classic hypothesis, the …

BRAIN ORGANOIDS AS MODELLING CONDUITS OF HUMAN NEURODIVERSITY: ADVANCED COMPUTATIONAL APPROACHES TO SINGLE CELL TRANSCRIPTOMICS
… framework to extract genes bearing fetal-fronto-temporal gradient expression, consolidating polCAs transcriptional topography in a comparative setting. My work sits at the interface between the experimental and computational improvement of BOs, ensuring a multi-view characterization of newly …

High-throughput phenotyping and physiological genetics of stomatal patterning and water use efficiency in maize
… of their progenies that collectively represent a gradient of stomatal density. Significant amount of variation was found in the response patterns for the epidermal traits among the genotypes. Notably, the abaxial leaf surface seemed to be driving the drought responses of gas exchange traits. In …

Defining Epithelial Cell Fate Dynamics of the Oesophagus during Postnatal Development and Homeostasis
… associated with cell fate, I identified a temporal gradient of expression that spans postnatal development. After birth, during a period of rapid tissue expansion, a fraction of the basal population was seen to express the regenerative marker SOX9. This population progressively reduced as …

Environmental Cues in the Seasonal Development of the Southern California Annual Grassland
… stresses segregate these species along a time gradient. The effect is that the grassland then passes successively through a spring phase dominated by filaree (Erodium spp., Geraniaceae), an intermediate phase dominated by annual grasses (e.g. Avena spp., Poaceae), and a summer phase …
