Cryptogam communities in forest and steppe ecosystems of Oregon, USA

Creator:: Root, Heather T.
Abstract:: I focus on addressing knowledge gaps relating to management of cryptogams in Oregon's public lands in Pseudotsuga menziesii-Tsuga heterophylla forests on the west side of the Cascade Range and dryland steppe in the Cascade Range's rainshadow. While a great deal of research has illustrated the importance of late-successional forests for...

Ecological thresholds, climate extremes, and tree species' distributions across the Pacific coastal United States

Creator:: Lintz, Heather E.
Abstract:: Species' distributions across the landscape are perhaps the least understood yet most conspicuous features of life on earth. Ecologists have long studied species' distributions; yet, many questions remain about why species occur where they do. Such questions persist largely because species' distributions are complex systems with challenging properties like non-linearity,...

Genetics of sexuality and population genetics of Phellinus weirii

Creator:: Angwin, Peter A.
Abstract:: Phellinus weirii (Murr.) Gilbertson, cause of laminated root and butt rot, is a heterothallic basidiomycete lacking clamp connections. Two biological species groups of the fungus have been hypothesized, the Douglas-fir and cedar-types, on the basis of physiological, morphological and epidemiological differences. Single-spore and vegetative isolates differ in cultural morphology, nuclear...

Trichoderma spp. : distribution in stumps infested with Phellinus weirii and growth and antagonism in vitro

Creator:: Goldfarb, Barry
Abstract:: To determine which isolates will most rapidly replace Phellinus weirii in stumps and roots, Trichoderma spp. were isolated from P. weirii-infested stumps and roots, identified, and examined for growth rates and lethal effects on P. weirii in vitro. Phellinus weirii-infested Douglas-fir stumps and stump roots were sampled for microorganisms by...

The influence of pollinators on the maintenance of mixed mating in a population of the blue columbine, Aquilegia coerulea (Ranunculaceae)

Creator:: Sweet, Heather R.
Abstract:: Pollination ecology may play an important role in the maintenance of selfing in populations of self-compatible hermaphroditic plants where both selfing and outcrossing occur (mixed mating). Behavior and abundance of pollinators can influence the two major modes of selfing; autogamy (selfing within a flower) and geitonogamy (selfing between flowers on...

Seedborne Phytophthora infestans : effect of pathogen clonal lineage and potato cultivar on seed transmission of late blight and plant growth responses

Creator:: Partipilo, Heather M.
Abstract:: Seed piece to plant transmission of the potato late blight pathogen, Phytophthora infestans, occurred with isolates of the clonal lineages US-8 in Oregon and US-11 in Washington in field trials. Average transmission rate across potato cultivars was 0.5 and 2.4% with US-8, and 0.8 and 1.0% with US-11 in 1999...

Environmental Factors Affecting Phytophthora Root Rot of Rhododendron

Creator:: Mestas, Angie
Abstract:: Phytophthora root rot decreases availability and quality of rhododendrons produced in the USA. Symptoms of Phytophthora root rot include root necrosis, leaf chlorosis, stunting, and permanent wilt. The purpose of this thesis was to better understand the impact of root damage, soil moisture, nitrogen fertilizer application, and pathogen species on...

Development of Quantitative PCR Assays to Aid in Root-knot Nematode (Meloidogyne spp.) Diagnostics and Resistance Breeding Efforts in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Soule, Michelle L.
Abstract:: In the Pacific Northwest (PNW), the two most common root-knot nematodes are Meloidogyne hapla and Meloidogyne chitwoodi. These nematodes can infect a wide variety of crops and can cause significant losses. Currently, it is common for the field of nematology to use labor-intensive microscopy to identify plant-parasitic nematodes based on...
