Maternal input of Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis) : Determining a mother's life history from its progeny in coastal North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2014)Otolith studies have become more prevalent in recent years as use has expanded from ageing to examination of migration patterns and fidelity to natal habitats, and more recently examining otoliths for possible maternal ... -
Maturation and fecundity of the Neuse and Tar-Pamlico Rivers striped bass (morone saxatilis) stocks in coastal North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 1/13/16)The Albemarle/Roanoke stock makes up the largest contingent of Striped Bass (Morone saxatilis) in the state; however, other economically important populations exist elsewhere. The Central Southern Management Area (CSMA) ... -
Maturation, Fecundity, and Spawning Frequency of the Albemarle/Roanoke Striped Bass Stock
(East Carolina University, 2011)The principal striped bass, Morone saxatilis population in North Carolina, the Albemarle/Roanoke (A/R) stock has grown tremendously in size and age structure over the last twenty years necessitating an up-to-date maturity ... -
MCM10 Genetic Screen Using Drosophila melanogaster
(East Carolina University, 2016-04-28)Genes and the proteins they encode are responsible for virtually every aspect of life. The vast array of biological processes make it difficult to identify genes to study that are relevant to human diseases. MCM10 (short ... -
Mechanisms of germ cell development in Drosophila oogenesis.
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-17)Germ cell development requires interplay between factors that control cell fate and division. Early in their development, germ cells are an interconnected group of mitotically dividing cells. Key regulatory events then ... -
Melding Research and Education in a Zoological Setting
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-27)The first zoo was opened in London in 1828 and was intended for scientific study, but was eventually opened to the public in 1847. Since then, public dogma has dictated the development, role, and standards concerning the ... -
Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies in African Americans Provides Insights into the Genetic Architecture of Type 2 Diabetes
(2014-08)Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is more prevalent in African Americans than in Europeans. However, little is known about the genetic risk in African Americans despite the recent identification of more than 70 T2D loci primarily by ... -
Metabolic, Physiological, And Behavioral Responses Of Prey To Predation
(East Carolina University, 2015)Predators are known to cause prey to alter their morphology, life history or behavior in ways that reduce the likelihood of the prey being consumed by the predator. Seldom considered, however, are the consequences of ... -
Method of treating anxiety-related disorders with 2-aminocycloaliphatic amide compounds
(1995-12-12)A method for combatting anxiety in a subject in need of such treatment is provided. The method comprises administering to the subject a 2-aminocycloaliphatic amide kappa opioid agonist in an effective anxiety-combatting amount. -
MHC class I variation among wild, domestic and insular populations of the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata)
(East Carolina University, 2014)The zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) is a passerine bird native to Australia and the Lesser Sunda Islands, with domesticated populations derived from each of these localities. The Lesser Sundas and domesticated zebra ...
