Chloroplast DNA variability and phylogeny in the California closed cone pines

Creator:: Hong, Yong-pyo, 1958-
Abstract:: Chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) variability and phylogeny were studied via analysis of restriction site mutations and DNA sequencing in a complex of three closely related species of pines: Pinus radiata D. Don, P. attenuata Lemm., and muricata D. Don. Genomic DNA from 384 trees representing 20 populations in the complex were...

Palynological Perspectives on Younger Dryas to Early Holocene Human Ecology at Paisley Caves, Oregon

Creator:: Saban, Chantel V.
Abstract:: The Younger Dryas climatic event is a global phenomenon associated with a 1,000 year return to glacial conditions during the late Pleistocene period between 12,800 and 11,500 cal BP. Because of its significant effects on paleoenvironmental conditions in some parts of the world, archaeologists commonly seek to assess whether the...

Landscape Genomics and Climatic Responses of Willamette Valley Alders

Creator:: Kral, George L.
Abstract:: The climate of the Pacific Northwest is in flux, and existing forest ecosystems are stressed and poised to shift in fundamental ways, with or without human intervention. This dissertation probes the nature of forest responses to environmental change through investigations of morphology and genetics of three species of alder co-occurring...

Mycotoxicoses in domestic livestock: toxicity of ergot alkaloids in domestic poultry and fusariotoxins in beef cattle

Creator:: Roberts, Heaven Le A.
Abstract:: Mycotoxins are food-borne toxins produced by molds which are commonly found on animal feeds of economic significance. Toxic doses of these compounds vary widely across livestock species, and even within a species when considered across all stages of development and production. This variation is due to the wide range of...

Development of Computational, Visualization, and Molecular Tools for Fungal and Oomycete Community Ecology

Creator:: Foster, Zachary Stephen Longiaru
Abstract:: Oomycetes are an important group of organisms with a variety of ecological roles similar to fungi. Although many are well-studied plant pathogens known for their devastating effects on agricultural systems, most are little-studied saprobes and parasites of plants and animals in nearly every ecosystem on earth. The advent of affordable...

Characterization of the transition to the progamic phase in Zea mays pollen

Creator:: Smyth, Johanna C.
Abstract:: The transition of mature pollen to the progamic phase represents an important step in the regulation of plant sexual reproduction. The progamic phase encompasses the initiation of pollen tube germination, growth of the pollen tube through the stigma (the silk in maize) and concludes with fertilization of the female gametophyte....

Morphological variability and seed dormancy of Amelanchier (Rosaceae) grown in Oaxaca, Mexico

Creator:: Cruz-Cruz, Efrain
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to determine whether hybridization between Amelanchier denticulata. (H.B.K.) Koch and Amelanchier nervosa (Decaisne) StandL occurs in Oaxaca, Mexico, and to evaluate components of yield and germination characteristics and seed dormancy of Amelanchier denticulata. Amelanchier nervosa and Amelanchier denticulata samples and morphological characters were used...

Delimiting Species in the Mountaintops : New Trails for Studying Genomic Architecture and Sequencing Historical Specimens Uncover Hidden Diversity within the breve Species Group of Bembidion (Coleoptera : Carabidae)

Creator:: Sproul, John S.
Abstract:: Species are one of the foundational units upon which entire fields of scientific inquiry are built. Discovering and documenting the planet’s biodiversity remains one of the grand challenges of science. A proper conceptualization of species provides a critical framework for diverse fields such as biophysics, biochemistry, agriculture and pharmacology, and...

The Economics of Electrifying Buildings in Corvallis: A Benefit-Cost Analysis on a Potential Corvallis Policy to Ban Natural Gas Infrastructure in New Residential Homes

Creator:: Grogan, Nolan B.
Abstract:: Over 76 cities throughout the United States have already adopted policies to limit the expansion of natural gas, mainly through updates to city codes that ban natural gas infrastructure in new construction. Rising concern over the environmental and public health impacts of methane - a greenhouse gas with a much...

Dietary riboflavin and the production of clubbed down in chick embryos

Creator:: Brean, Suzanne E.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of riboflavin and pantothenic acid deficiency on the production of clubbed down embryos in Single Combed White Leghorn (SCWL) and Rhode Island Red (RIR) hens. In experiment 1, sixteen SCWL and eight RIR hens were assigned to one of four diets calculated...
