Creator:: Schisler, David Albert
Abstract:: Fusarium spp. frequent conifer nursery soils yet are rarely recovered from coniferous forest soils. Experiments were performed to determine what influence humic-rich organic amendments and volatiles from soil, ectomycorrhizal fungi and ectomycorrhizae have on the populations of several physiologic and taxonomic microbial groups potentially related to this phenomenon. A comparative...

Abstract:: The abundance of algal species and their parasites was monitored weekly for two years in a sewage lagoon at the Corvallis Airport, Oregon. During the cooler months, Euglena species were dominant followed by a Chlamydomonas assemblage in the spring and a predominantly Scenedesmus assemblage in the summer and fall. Parasites...

Abstract:: Phytophthora vignae, causal agent of stem and root rot of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata), was reported for the first time in Sri Lanka. The pathogen was found in cowpea field soils from 3 of 5 geographic regions sampled. Only one site however, had plants exhibiting disease symptoms. Of the eight cowpea...

Creator:: Hural, Kirsten
Abstract:: The influence of atmospheric humidity on three aspects of sporulation of Sphaerotheca pannosa (Wallr.) Lev. var. rosae Wor., which causes rose powdery mildew, was studied on leaf disks of susceptible Rosa cultivar Samantha. To study conidiophore production, leaf disks were inoculated on the adaxial (upper) surface with conidia of S....

Creator:: Hoefnagels, Mariëlle Henriette, 1965-
Abstract:: Fusarium spp. are among the most important pathogens of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seedlings in bareroot nurseries. Currently the most effective disease control method is soil fumigation with methyl bromide. As methyl bromide is phased out, however, other disease management strategies may become more important. We explored two alternative approaches to...

Creator:: Hesse, Cedar N.
Abstract:: Mat-forming ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi represent a prevalent constituent of many temperate forest ecosystems and create dramatic changes in soil structure and chemistry. EcM mat soil have been shown to have increased microbial respiration rates and have been hypothesized to harbor unique assemblages of fungi and bacteria. The objectives of this...
