Anadromous fish populations in the Pacific Northwest have
undergone substantial change throughout the past century.
Historical periods of over-harvest and the construction of
numerous dams throughout the region have contributed to declines
in the runs of naturally spawning stocks. Management efforts to
rebuild fish populations have focused on the restriction...
Studies towards the total synthesis of (+)-Phomactin A (1), D (6), and G (9), fungal metabolites with unique molecular architecture and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediates 354 and 356, which contain all of the carbon atoms of 1, 6 and 9....
Grapes (e.g. Vitis vinifera L.) are one of the more important fruit crops from an economic standpoint with world market values over 550 million US dollars in 2007 and 2008, second to apples (United States Department of Agriculture). While a satisfactory level of ripeness is of primary concern, the quality...
This investigation was undertaken to characterize and evaluate
the forage production and utilization of the successional vegetation
of the mixed conifer forest.
Field studies were carried out during the summers of 1962
through 1964 at the Eastern Oregon Experiment Station Hall Ranch
which is located 12 miles southeast of Union,...
Species interactions and their effect on the use of habitat by benthic fishes were examined in a guild composed of Cottus perplexus, C. rhotheus, and C. beldingi in the Marys River above Philomath, Oregon, and in a constant environment provided by an artificial stream. In the Marys River system, the...
The first asymmetric synthesis of (-)-7-epicylindrospermopsin via intramolecular nitrone cycloaddition is described. The synthesis utilized a convergent approach to prepare the cycloaddition precursor 176, which was assembled by condensation of hydroxylamine 175 with aldehyde 145. Hydroxylamine 175 was synthesized from ethylene glycol (166) in seven steps. Aldehyde 145 was completed...
