for their valuable feedback and contributions to my research and program of study. I would also like to offer my appreciation to Corning Optics for the NIR hyperspectral imaging instrument. To our laboratory manager, Glen Rippke, I very much appreciate his assistance and guidance in my research. I would like to thank Connie Hardy, Ria Gasaway, my friends and colleagues at the Grain Quality Laboratory, and my Filipino friends in Ames for being my family here in the US and making my stay at Iowa State University worthwhile. My parents and brother have been supportive in my endeavor despite the distance, my special thanks to them. I would also like to give my husband, Querriel Arvy Mendoza, warm gratitude for his patience, understanding, and constant support in every step of the way. Above all, I would like to thank God for providing me the wisdom and strength to complete my dissertation and doctoral program and for making all these things possible.
