Creator:: Giles, Robert Steven
Abstract:: A survey of partial cuts planted with bare-root seedlings, was conducted on the Prospect Ranger District, Rogue River National Forest, Oregon, during the 1977 summer season. The purpose was to assess stocking and its composition under present levels of canopy cover, and to determine relationships between canopy density and performance...

Creator:: Murphy, Ellyn Margaret
Abstract:: Sapling Douglas-fir trees on five sites in the Coastal and Cascade Mountain ranges of Oregon were measured five times during the year from the summer of 1977 through the spring of 1978 for diurnal patterns of xylem water potential, stomatal conductance and abscisic acid. Vapor pressure deficit and solar radiation...

Creator:: Newville, Edward G.
Abstract:: Foliage of Douglas-fir seedlings [Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco] from two contrasting environments was sampled during progressive stages of two consecutive cycles of induced drought for leaf resistance, plant water potential , and abscisic acid content (ABA). One group of seedlings was placed in a controlled environment room while another group...

Creator:: Johnson, Jon Dale
Abstract:: This research dealt with the direct environmental influence of atmospheric vapor pressure on stomates of Pseudotsuga menziesii, Picea engelniannii, and Fragaria X ananassa, and the indirect physiological control of stomates by abscisic acid in Pseudotsuga menziesii. Two ventilated porometers (diffusion and steady-state) were compared on four broadleaf and five coniferous...

Creator:: Pope, Walter William
Abstract:: Net photosynthesis was measured for photosynthetic light efficiency and capacity on two-year-old plants from eight different seed sources in three measurement periods. The measurement periods corresponded to the physiological periods 1) prior to bud swelling, 2) after needle elongation, and 3) predormancy. Measurement period differences in both photosynthetic efficiency and...

Creator:: Alexander, Joseph Richard
Abstract:: Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) roots in four plant communities--ocean spray (Holodiscus discolor (Pursh). Maxim.)/salal (Gaultheria shallon Pursh), vine maple (Acer circinatum Pursh)/salal, sword-fern (Polystichum munitum (Kaulf.) Presi. var. munitum) and sword-f ern/oxalis (Oxalis oregana Nutt.)--were sampled for soluble nitrogen concentrations. Sampling prior to bud burst in the salal communities...
