Overarching framework to assess and enhance sustainability in multiple, integrated systems using System Dynamics
(Virginia Tech, 2014-07-18)Environmental sustainability has become important considering limited natural resources and an ever increasing consumption. Sustainability assessment is a complex procedure which is used to quantify and measure sustainability ... -
Overcoming barriers in evaluating outbreaks of diarrheal disease in resource poor settings: assessment of recurrent outbreaks in Chobe District, Botswana
(2013-08-26)Background Diarrheal illness remains a leading cause of global morbidity and mortality, with the majority of deaths occurring in children <5 years of age. Lack of resources often prohibits the evaluation of outbreak ... -
Overcoming Biomass Recalcitrance by Combining Genetically Modified Switchgrass and Cellulose Solvent-Based Lignocellulose Pretreatment
(2013-09-27)Decreasing lignin content of plant biomass by genetic engineering is believed to mitigate biomass recalcitrance and improve saccharification efficiency of plant biomass. In this study, we compared two different pretreatment ... -

Overexpression and simple purification of the Thermotoga maritima 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase in Escherichia coli and its application for NADPH regeneration
(2009-06-04)Background Thermostable enzymes from thermophilic microorganisms are playing more and more important roles in molecular biology R&D and industrial applications. However, over-production of recombinant soluble proteins from ... -
Overexpression of AtLOV1 in Switchgrass Alters Plant Architecture, Lignin Content, and Flowering Time
(2012-12-26)Background: Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is a prime candidate crop for biofuel feedstock production in the United States. As it is a self-incompatible polyploid perennial species, breeding elite and stable switchgrass ... -
Overexpression of Brucella putative glycosyltransferase WbkA in B-abortus RB51 leads to production of exopolysaccharide
(Frontiers, 2015-06-24)Brucella spp. are Gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacteria that cause brucellosis in mammals. Brucella strains containing the O-polysaccharide in their cell wall structure exhibit a smooth phenotype whereas the ... -
Overexpression of wbkF gene in Brucella abortus RB51WboA leads to increased O-polysaccharide expression and enhanced vaccine efficacy against B. abortus 2308, B. melitensis 16M, and B. suis 1330 in a murine brucellosis model
(PLOS, 2019-03-11)Brucella abortus RB51 is an attenuated, stable, spontaneous rough mutant derived in the laboratory from the virulent strain B. abortus 2308. Previous studies discovered that the wboA gene, which encodes a glycosyltransferase ... -
Overhang of a Heavy Elastic Sheet
(Department of Computer Science, Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, 1981), CS81008-RA flexible elastic sheet overhangs from a corner. The deflection due to its own weight depends on a parameter K which represents the relative importance of overhang length to the bending length (EI/p)^1/3. -
Overhead sprinkler irrigation strategies to reduce water and nitrogen loss from container-grown plants
(Virginia Tech, 1993-04-05)The overall objective of this study was to determine the influence of intermittent water application via overhead irrigation on water and N leaching, substrate water distribution, and plant growth in a pine bark substrate. ... -

Overlap
(Virginia Tech, 2001-06-27)This is a study of how literal and phenomenal transparency inform the development and understanding of a design ordered by two overlapping reference systems. A mixed-use building serves as the project to resolve the ... -
Overlap microtubules link sister k-fibres and balance the forces on bi-oriented kinetochores
(Springer Nature, 2016-01)During metaphase, forces on kinetochores are exerted by k-fibres, bundles of microtubules that end at the kinetochore. Interestingly, non-kinetochore microtubules have been observed between sister kinetochores, but their ...
