Abstract:
Based on the results of field surveys, coastal dike failures caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake were classified into eight patterns. The results of hydraulic model experiments related to major failure patterns reinforced the proposed failure processes. In addition, the aggregated length of each failure pattern showed that failure from scouring at the landward toe is the dominant failure pattern.

Abstract:
The California Tree Failure Report Program database was established in 1987 to collect data on tree branch, trunk, and root breakage or uprooting. The database for the CTFRP is compiled from failure evaluation reports filled out by statewide cooperating arborists, tree assessors, and other horticultural professionals. Compilation of 186 reports for Monterey pine (Pinus radiata) has permitted development of a "failure profile" -a characterization of failure location, structural defects, decay, climatic conditions, and other factors associated with structural failure of Monterey pine. Monterey pine was found to be particularly failure prone compared to other tree species in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, CA. Close to 60% of Monterey pine failures reported in the CTFRP database were limb failures, rather than trunk or root failures, and most of these were considered to be heavy lateral limbs - a structural defect. The majority of limb breakage occurred away from, rather than at the point of attachment, suggesting a wood strength problem. Decay was notfrequently associated with Monterey pine failures at any location on the tree. Tree spacing, nutrition, and genetic strain are likely to be major factors influencing heavy lateral limb development. Closer tree spacing, low nitrogen input, and genetic selection offer hope for reducing Monterey pine branch failure.

Abstract:
Abstract Failure patterns in malignant gliomas have been described in previous literatures, however, studies were limited to analyze clinical features to account for predisposition to distinct failure patterns. Present study aimed to describe the landscape of failure patterns in malignant glioma from large cohort by integrating multi-omics data and investigate the genetic backgrounds of distinct failure patterns. A total of 423 cases from 325 patients who enrolled at the registry of IRCR at SMC were reviewed for their pattern of failure. Failure patterns were categorized into local, distant recurrence and leptomeningeal seeding regarding recurrent tumors’ spatial relation to primary location. Genomic data was available for 327 (DNAseq) and 259 samples (RNAseq), respectively. Glioblastoma was the most prevalent histologic type in study cohort (81.2%)) and majority of cases experienced the recurrence (79.0%). None of clinical parameters (e.g. age, sex, extent of operation and history of prior therapy) failed to show any significant association with failure patterns. Although local recurrence was most prevalent (63.8%) among failure patterns in malignant gliomas, considerable portion of patients (37.8%) demonstrated other types of failure patterns even in their initial relapse. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that failure pattern was significant prognostic factor to overall survival (remote recurrence, HR=1.59, p-value=0.009; leptomeningeal seeding, HR=2.17, p-value< 0.001). Genomic analysis including mutational profile revealed distinct molecular landscape of malignant gliomas according to failure patterns, which suggested that innate biologic characteristics of tumors might contribute to develop distinct failure patterns upon recurrence. PTEN mutation was significantly enriched in tumors of distant recurrence (p-value=0.026). We described the landscape of failure patterns in malignant gliomas by integrating clinical and genomic data. Considerable amount of malignant glioma patients experienced distinct failure patterns other than local recurrence and their clinical outcome as well as genetic background demonstrated invasive characteristic of these tumors.

Abstract:
Anchoring the external prestressing to the bridge end block is one of the key issues for strengthening of existing concrete bridges. This paper presents an innovative technique to fix steel brackets to the sides of the end block by two transverse pretensioned through-rods and three expansion bolts in both friction and shear pattern. In order to validate the technique, two steel reinforced concrete specimens (J1 and J2) fixed with experimental steel brackets are prepared and an experiment investigation has been carried out. Two sudden failures have been observed. The failure patterns of expansion bolts in J1 are pullout failure and shear failure, and two transverse pretensioned through-rods have large yield deformation. The failure patterns of expansion bolts in J2 are similar, but the failure patterns of two transverse pretensioned through-rods are shear fracture. The relationship of force and slip is linear but with two different slope when the load less than 2000kN in both J1 and J2.

Abstract:
Abstract BACKGROUND Malignant gliomas exhibit varied failure patterns upon recurrence; however, genomic backgrounds of these distinct phenotypes have not been evaluated. We aimed to explore the genomic traits associated with distinct failure patterns in malignant glioma patients. METHODS This study involved 272 malignant glioma patients. Failure pattern was defined for the spatial relationship between recurrent tumor and the original tumor as follows: local recurrence (LR), remote recurrence, leptomeningeal seeding (LMC), and combined failure pattern. Molecular characteristics underlying different failure patterns were investigated for the mutation profile, copy number variation (CNV), and transcriptomic signatures. RESULTS Local recurrence was the most prominent failure pattern (62.9%), followed by combined recurrence (22.8%). Multivariate Cox regression analysis confirmed failure pattern as one of the independent prognostic factors. Patients with combined failure patterns exhibited the worst prognoses, whereas patients with remote recurrence exhibited the most favorable outcomes (median overall survival = 11.4 and 25.2 months, respectively). In IDH1-wild type glioblastoma (GBM) patients, TERT and PIK3CA mutation were significantly associated with the development of combined failure pattern and leptomeningeal seeding, respectively (p-value=0.015 & p-value=0.004, respectively). Transcriptomic analysis exhibited that inter-neuronal synaptic transmission was enriched in GBMs with combined failure pattern and this finding was further validated in proteomic analysis; neuronal myelination and synaptic transmission-related pathways were upregulated in GBMs which exhibited combined failure pattern. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, we demonstrated that the inherent molecular characteristics of the tumors might contribute to the eventual relapse patterns; tracking their evolutionary pathways may unravel novel therapeutic vulnerabilities of these tumors.

Abstract:
PurposeThis paper aims to find out what kind of export and failure risk patterns exist among young Estonian manufacturing exporters and explore their interlinkages.Design/methodology/approachThe sample consisted of 208 young Estonian manufacturing exporters. Based on internationalization literature, export patterns were detected with a consecutive three-stage clustering of export sales share from total sales, outside-Europe sales share from export sales and number of target markets, while failure risk patterns were detected by clustering failure probabilities obtained from a universal prediction model. The interconnection of export patterns with financial ratios and failure risk patterns was studied with statistical tests.FindingsSix main internationalization patterns existed. In all, 49 per cent of firms exported to a single European market and their export share was constantly very low, while even most of the firms with high export shares (39 per cent of the sample) were also active on one European market. In terms of failure risk patterns, 49 per cent of firms had constantly very low failure risk, while 51 per cent of firms had medium risk. Higher export engagement did not lead to better financial performance or lower failure risk.Originality/valueThis study is the first to find out if firms following different export patterns are also characterized by specific financial performance and failure risk. In addition, studies encompassing young exporters’ specific target markets and failure risk development are rare. While exporters’ and non-exporters’ financial performance differences have been frequently documented in favor of the former, this study found no such differences for different types of young exporters.

Abstract:
Safety-critical systems are typically assessed for their adherence to specified safety properties. They are studied down to the component-level to identify root causes of any hazardous failures. Most recent work with model-based safety analysis has focused on improving system modelling techniques and the algorithms used for automatic analyses of failure models. However, few developments have been made to improve the scope of reusable analysis elements within these techniques. The failure behaviour of components in these techniques is typically specified in such a way that limits the applicability of such specifications across applications. The thesis argues that allowing more general expressions of failure behaviour, identifiable patterns of failure behaviour for use within safety analyses could be specified and reused across systems and applications where the conditions that allow such reuse are present.This thesis presents a novel Generalised Failure Language (GFL) for the specification and use of component failure patterns. Current model-based safety analysis methods are investigated to examine the scope and the limits of achievable reuse within their analyses. One method, HiP-HOPS, is extended to demonstrate the application of GFL and the use of component failure patterns in the context of automated safety analysis. A managed approach to performing reuse is developed alongside the GFL to create a method for more concise and efficient safety analysis. The method is then applied to a simplified fuel supply and a vehicle braking system, as well as on a set of legacy models that have previously been analysed using classical HiP-HOPS. The proposed GFL method is finally compared against the classical HiP-HOPS, and in the light of this study the benefits and limitations of this approach are discussed in the conclusions.

The history of acquisition reform dates back to the Revolutionary War era, and recommendations and actions to reform the Department of Defense's acquisition system continue today. Common themes emerge from the recommendations of countless Acts, Studies, Panels, and Commissions over the past 30 years, pointing to areas that appear to have the most impact on the system. Despite these actions and recommendations, issues remain at the program execution level, resulting in increased cost and delays in fielding needed capabilities. This work focuses on three areas. A comprehensive Literature Review of acquisition reform activities was conducted. This generated a list of common themes and focus areas that are associated with less than successful program outcomes. Following this, a series of ten patterns of behavior (acquisition archetypes) postulated for software programs developed by Carnegie Mellon University's Software Engineering Institute were examined for applicability to the larger Department of Defense acquisition system and to determine their relationship to acquisition reform actions. As part of this effort, a survey of acquisition personnel was conducted to determine the relevance of these patterns of behavior. Based on these foundational works, the final step examined the results of the survey to answer four research questions. First, the survey results were analyzed to determine if the patterns of behavior were present with general and statistical relevance. The second question attempted to determine if the patterns of behavior led to measurable cost and/or schedule growth if they were present in the respondent's program. Third, the postulated root causes for the behaviors were compared to the common themes from acquisition reform activities to determine alignment. Finally, the survey results were analyzed to see if the patterns of behavior correlated to a particular program size, lead service, or "joint" program status. The findings show that the patterns of behavior are present in Department of Defense acquisition programs, and some do lead to measurable cost and/or schedule growth when identified. Acquisition Reform activities have been targeted at the areas that are reported as root causes of the behaviors, and one of the ten patterns of behavior does correlate with "joint" program status.

Full text
Abstract:
Due to the dynamically-varying nature of aircraft loading scenarios, a large number of global load cases are generated which must be analysed in a Global Finite Element Model (GFEM) to obtain the internal load paths going into each substructure. Analysing all load cases is often not possible due to computational constraints, so that substantial engineering judgement in load case down-selection is required. One innovation developed by QUB to reduce the number of load cases is to use Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) to derive a smaller set of characteristic loads which represent all the global load distributions. This research focuses on developing the SVD based load development process by studying factors that could affect the accuracy and proposes some robust error quantification methods suitable for different scenarios. The major downstream benefit of the process is that the analysis results for this set of characteristic loads can be superimposed to create the internal load distributions resulting from all the original load cases. The method is also used in sensitivity analysis for gradient based optimisation and shows a very large reduction in computational effort. When the SVD is performed at the local structure level, a few internal load characteristic patterns, which represent all internal loads, can also be identified. Another major development in this work is that the failure envelope can be constructed in this reduced dimensional load space. The resulting surface defines critical failure constraints under any loading. The novel parameterisatlon and adaptive mesh refinement techniques have been employed to efficiently construct the failure surface of the industry standard structural assessment tools, which are treated as a black box. The failure envelope therefore provides valuable insights into the structures, failures and loads. Moreover, the down-selection process or constraint filtering can be performed very quickly using the information from this envelope.

Abstract:
This study attempts to answer the question of why some children fail while others succeed in the first year of school when they appear to have at least average abilities and to come from family environments which seem, on the surface at least, to provide similar developmental opportunities. The researcher observed in ten, four-year-old children's homes over a period of four days for each child and followed these intensive home observations with three-monthly, informal interviews with adult family members. Each child was observed in school intensively, on entry to school and every three months following entry until six years of age. Informal interviews were conducted with the class teachers every three months. During the 'intensive' home and school observations continuous hand-written narrative recordings of natural communication incidents were made of all the oral language and activities of the focal child, and of the language and activities of other children and adults when what they said and did was in the vicinity of the focal child. Notes were made of the location, atmosphere, body language, people present, and focal objects throughout the time of the observations. Field notes were made each night after every home, school or pre-school visit. Each child was tested with a battery of tests on entry into school at five years, at five-and-a-half years and at six years. The gathering of these different data meant a wide variety of information about the child's total ecological environment was gathered. A variety of ways for examining the data for a relationship between the behaviours and social experience of the child which occurred at home and measures of achievement in school were explored. These included a variety of language variables (e. g. exposure to question types, statement types, amount of talk) and measures of variables related to socia-economic status and home environmental factors (e.g. the HOME Scale, Caldwell & Bradley, 1979). Al though some of these variables were significantly correlated with school achievement, it was not clear that the problem of why some children succeeded in school while others failed had been satisfactorily solved. A more detailed analysis of the data was carried out which differed from most other psychological or educational studies in that it focused on the underlying structures of the natural socio-linguistic patterns of interaction in both home and school first year classrooms. The task was to describe observable social interaction in terms of the underlying structures which characterised the home subcultural experience of the children and the sub-cultural learning (acculturation) required of the children in order to successfully adapt to the school environment. The theory generated to explain this complex problem was adapted from a theory sometimes termed script theory, or schema theory. It was developed into a framework which could deal with both children's present school experience and the children's past experience of the structure of meaningful social interactions. The results showed that the underlying structure of patterns of interaction (schema) which the children brought with them from home to school did indeed cause failure for some children at school. The children's experience of patterns of interaction in the homes which were like school patterns of interaction correlated 0.91 with achievement in school. The greater the variety of school-like patterns of interaction occurring in the homes the greater a child's achievement rate was likely to be. This study has implications for classroom organisation, for the structure of classroom patterns of interaction and for young people who come from home ecological environments which are significantly different from the present classroom environment. It is argued that children are our nation's most important resource and we need to examine with great care what we are doing to promote alternative classroom environments.

Abstract:
Heart failure (HF) is a complex, debilitating disease that affects approximately 6.5 million Americans (Ades et al., 2013). HF is a large reason for hospital readmissions, and subsequently, a major contributor to rising health care costs. Unfortunately, there is no cure for HF, but various interventions such as cardiac rehabilitation (CR) have been employed to help patients manage the symptoms. However, the lack of patients ever being referred to cardiac rehabilitation is disturbing. Healthcare providers play an essential role in providing education about heart failure and CR, and thus should be knowledgeable about these principles themselves. Therefore, the aim of this project is to evaluate data from a survey sent to nurse practitioners (NPs) regarding whether HF patients are being referred to CR appropriately, and if barriers are limiting use of CR programs. This was a descriptive, nonexperimental study with a survey design seeking to understand if NP providers are following evidence-based guidelines when treating HF patients and if providers consider CR programs to be an appropriate treatment tool. A survey questionnaire was distributed to NPs who are members of Coalition of Arizona Nurses in Advanced Practice (CAZNAP). Data from 27 surveys were used for analysis. Results showed that nurse practitioner respondents felt they had a good understanding of heart failure education and diagnosis. A majority also considered CR to be a useful tool for HF patients, and all agreed that health care providers affect CR enrollment and participation rates. A mere nine respondents (33%) reported being introduced to the outcomes and benefits of CR in their graduate education. Findings also confirmed previous work suggesting that providers are not adequately referring HF patients to CR, as 33% of NPs reported they have never referred a patient to CR. With respect to these findings, it is important to identify methods to assist providers with proper education about CR and its referral methods. As supported by the literature review, improved referral rates to CR can lead to better management and health outcomes for HF patients. Therefore, further research is needed to identify interventions that promote increased CR referral rates.

Full text
Abstract:
Heart failure affects 1-2% of the adult population in the United Kingdom and accounts for the majority of hospitalisations in patients with cardiovascular disease. The financial implications are enormous as it consumes 1-2% of the national health care budget with 70% of these costs relating to hospitalisation expenses. Prevention of these admissions may be possible by detecting early signs of decompensation in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) and instituting interventions that may steer the course of disease back to stability without the need for a hospital inpatient stay. Further, Sleep Disordered Breathing (SDB) and in particular Central Sleep Apnoea (CSA) is found in patients with CHF and at any symptomatic stage of the condition. This may be associated with Cheyne-Stokes Respiration (CSR), which has been shown to be an independent predictor of mortality. In the first study of this thesis, I investigated the accuracy of the SleepMinderTM (SM) device; which is a non-contact monitor of nocturnal respiratory patterns; in diagnosing SDB by deriving measures of the Apnoea Hypopnea Index (AHI) and percentage overnight CSR from the SM signals. I found that SM was good in terms of diagnostic accuracy with an area under receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) of 0.82 (p=0.02) for an AHI threshold >15, but only moderately so for % overnight CSR>0, with an area under ROC curve of 0.72 (p=0.06). In the second study, I examined the changes that occur in SM derived respiratory parameters over a long period of monitoring and found that the AHI, quantity of CSR, Total Sleep Time (TST) and Respiratory Rate (RR) were highly variable with Intra-Class Correlation (ICC) measures of 0.32, 0.39, 0.25, 0.36 respectively over a period of 12 months. Relying on data from a year rather than a single night resulted in misclassification of patients into a different severity group of SDB during 35% of the follow up period and placed patients into a different treatment group during 21% of this period. I also observed that a high proportion (59%) of patients studied had a mean AHI that was consistently above the accepted threshold for treatment (AHI>15). This was consistent even over a shorter follow up period of 2 weeks suggesting that a single night measure of the AHI may not be a sufficient risk assessment of SDB in heart failure patients. In the final study, I have investigated the predictive value of the SleepMinderTM for acute decompensation of heart failure (ADHF) using algorithms derived from its signals. I found that the SM was not accurate for this purpose, performing with a sensitivity and specificity of 0.38 and 0.71, respectively. In summary this study has demonstrated that the SleepMinderTM device provides a novel screening method, which is convenient for the detection of sleep disordered breathing in patients with CHF. It performs with a good diagnostic accuracy and is acceptable to these patients due to its non-contact operation. Algorithms derived from its signals however cannot be used to predict acute decompensation of chronic heart failure. Further, longitudinal analyses of nocturnal respiratory patterns in these patients have demonstrated that the Apnoea Hypopnea Index (AHI) is highly variable over a prolonged period of monitoring and a mean value rather that a single night measurement may be a more appropriate risk assessment tool for SDB. This requires confirmation.

Abstract:
Real-world processes are often combinations of deterministic and stochastic processes. Soil failure observed during farm tillage is one example of this phenomenon. In this paper, we investigated the nonlinear features of soil failure patterns in a farm tillage process. We demonstrate emerging determinism in soil failure patterns from stochastic processes under specific soil conditions. We normalized the deterministic nonlinear prediction considering autocorrelation and propose it as a robust way of extracting a nonlinear dynamical system from noise contaminated motion. Soil is a typical granular material. The results obtained here are expected to be applicable to granular materials in general. From a global scale to nano scale, the granular material is featured in seismology, geotechnology, soil mechanics, and particle technology. The results and discussions presented here are applicable in these wide research areas. The proposed method and our findings are useful with respect to the application of nonlinear dynamics to investigate complex motions generated from granular materials. (C) 2017 Author(s).

Abstract:
Abstract Failure analysis for Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) is the major activity in any microelectronic failure analysis lab. Originating from SRAM array structure, SRAM failure can be simple as single bit, paired bit or quad bit failures, whose defect is located at the failure location, or complicated as logic type failure involving WL or BL patterns or entire blocks, whose defect is often not at the failure location. For such SRAM logic type failures, failure analysis is more challenging and detailed fault isolation is necessary prior to physical failure analysis. This paper has demonstrated how to use SRAM decoder scheme knowledge, detailed layout tracing and Photon Emission Microscope (PEM) analysis to deal with the challenges and find the root causes for several cases of SRAM logic type failures.

Abstract:
We investigate the effect of domestic armed violence brought about by political instability on the geography of distance frictions in freight mobility and the resulting differential access of regions to global markets. The Colombian transportation system has been found to be impeded by deficiencies in landside transport infrastructure and institutions, and by fragmented political environments. The micro-level analysis of U.S.-bounded export shipping records corroborates that export freight shipping from inland regions is re-routed to avoid exposures to domestic armed violence despite greatly extended landside and maritime shipping distances. We exploit the trajectories of freight shipping from Colombian regions and spatial patterns of violent armed conflicts to see how unstable geopolitical environments are detrimental to freight shipping mobility and market openness. The discrete choice model shows that the shipping flow is greatly curbed by the extended re-routing due to domestic armed violence and that inland regions have restricted access to the global market. The perception of risk and re-routing behavior is found heterogeneous across shipments and conditional to shipment characteristics, such as commodity type, freight value and shipper sizes. The results highlight that political stability must be accommodated for improved freight mobility and export-oriented economic development in the global South.

Abstract:
Bio-structures owe their remarkable mechanical properties to their hierarchical geometrical arrangement as well as heterogeneous material properties. This dissertation presents an integrated, interdisciplinary approach that employs computational mechanics combined with flow network analysis to gain fundamental insights into the failure mechanisms of high performance, light-weight, structured composites by examining the stress flow patterns formed in the nascent stages of loading for the rostrum of the paddlefish. The data required for the flow network analysis was generated from the finite element analysis of the rostrum. The flow network was weighted based on the parameter of interest, which is stress in the current study. The changing kinematics of the structural system was provided as input to the algorithm that computes the minimum-cut of the flow network. The proposed approach was verified using two classical problems three- and four-point bending of a simply-supported concrete beam. The current study also addresses the methodology used to prepare data in an appropriate format for a seamless transition from finite element binary database files to the abstract mathematical domain needed for the network flow analysis. A robust, platform-independent procedure was developed that efficiently handles the large datasets produced by the finite element simulations. Results from computational mechanics using Abaqus and complex network analysis are presented.

Abstract:
Building on the scientific evidence and keeping in focus policy promises made over the decades, this report mobilizes the power of socially engaged art to bring together visions and voices of youth from across the globe in a collective effort to address the root causes of the climate crisis. It starts with the premise that education is directly implicated in the climate crisis and our failure to imagine alternatives. But it can also be the catalyst for radical change. Aiming to shift and shuffle the dominant knowledge systems and categories with the cards from the Turn It Around! deck, this report urges you to turn toward the reality of the climate crisis by capturing its devastating impacts from youth perspective in a way statistical data might not. It challenges existing education policies, practices, and patterns as no longer possible, tolerable, or even thinkable. With the powerful imagination and creativity of youth, the report activates a series of turning points — intergenerational, decolonial, methodological, and pedagogical — in order to turn around the environmental catastrophe, while reconfiguring the role of education toward ecologically just and sustainable futures.

Full text
Abstract:
Skeletal deformities are a significant financial and welfare problem for the world poultry industry. Tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is the most prevalent skeletal abnormality found in young broilers, turkeys and ducks. Tibial dyschondroplasia results from a perturbation of the sequence of events in the epiphyseal growth plate, the tissue responsible for longitudinal bone growth. The purpose of this investigation was to test the hypothesis that TD was the result of a failure of growth plate chondrocytes to differentiate and express the chemotactic molecules required for cartilage vascularization. In this investigation in situ hybridization and immunocytochemical techniques were used to study chondrocyte gene products associated with cartilage maturation and vascularization such as osteopontin, osteonectin, type X collagen, and alkaline phosphatase. All markers were present in the growth plate tissue anter or to the TD lesion but were greatly diminished in the TD lesion. Thus, rather than not acquiring the markers for hypertrophy, it appears that the growth plate chondrocytes reach a certain stage of hypertrophy and then de-differentiate into cells which resemble chondrocytes in the prehypertrophic zone. Similar patterns were observed in all TD tissues examined whether the lesions were spontaneous or induced by dietary treatments or genetic selection. The decrease in gene expression can at least be partially explained by the fact that many of the dysplastic chondrocytes show classic signs of apoptosis. These results provide an explanation for the observation that a variety of genes show reduced expression in the TD lesion when examined by in situ hybridization. This would suggest that future research should focus on the earliest detectable stages in the development of TD and examine endocrine and autocrine factors which cause chondrocytes to de-differentiate and undergo premature apoptosis.

Abstract:
The research problem. Understanding of insect reproduction has been critical to the design of insect pest control strategies including disruptions of mate-finding, courtship and sperm transfer by male insects. It is well known that males transfer proteins to females during mating that profoundly affect female reproductive physiology, but little is known about the molecular basis of female mating response and no attempts have yet been made to interfere with female post-mating responses that directly bear on the efficacy of fertilization. The female reproductive tract provides a crucial environment for the events of fertilization yet thus far those events and the role of the female tract in influencing them are poorly understood. For this project, we have chosen to focus on the lower reproductive tract because it is the site of two processes critical to reproduction: sperm management (storage, maintenance, and release from storage) and fertilization. E,fforts during this project period centered on the elucidation of mating responses in the female lower reproductive tract The central goals of this project were: 1. To identify mating-responsive genes in the female lower reproductive tract using DNA microarray technology. 2. In parallel, to identify mating-responsive genes in these tissues using proteomic assays (2D gels and LC-MS/MS techniques). 3. To integrate proteomic and genomic analyses of reproductive tract gene expression to identify significant genes for functional analysis. Our main achievements were: 1. Identification of mating-responsive genes in the female lower reproductive tract. We identified 539 mating-responsive genes using genomic and proteomic approaches. This analysis revealed a shift from gene silencing to gene activation soon after mating and a peak in differential gene expression at 6 hours post-mating. In addition, comparison of the two datasets revealed an expression pattern consistent with the model that important reproductive proteins are pre-programmed for synthesis prior to mating. This work was published in Mack et al. (2006). Validation experiments using real-time PCR techniques suggest that microarray assays provide a conservativestimate of the true transcriptional activity in reproductive tissues. 2.lntegration of proteomics and genomics data sets. We compared the expression profiles from DNA microarray data with the proteins identified in our proteomic experiments. Although comparing the two data sets poses analyical challenges, it provides a more complete view of gene expression as well as insights into how specific genes may be regulated. This work was published in Mack et al. (2006). 3. Development of primary reproductive tract cell cultures. We developed primary cell cultures of dispersed reproductive tract cell types and determined conditions for organ culture of the entire reproductive tract. This work will allow us to rapidly screen mating-responsive genes for a variety of reproductive-tract specifi c functions. Scientific and agricultural significance. Together, these studies have defined the genetic response to mating in a part of the female reproductive tract that is critical for successful fertllization and have identified alarge set of mating-responsive genes. This work is the first to combine both genomic and proteomic approaches in determining female mating response in these tissues and has provided important insights into insect reproductive behavior.
