  • Understanding Host-Pathogen Interactions in the Sphaerulina musiva-Populus Pathosystem

    Creator:
    Dunnell, Kelsey Liann
    Abstract:
    Host-parasite interactions between the pathogen, Sphaerulina musiva, and its host, Populus spp., were examined in a series of studies. In the first study, variation in resistance of Populus nigra from 7 locations in Europe was differentiated based on the parameters cankers per cm and disease severity score. The analysis evaluated...

  • Ascospore viability and dispersal from pruned branches infected with Anisogramma anomala

    Creator:
    Heckert, Stephanie
    Abstract:
    Viability and dispersal of ascospores of Anisogramma anomala, the cause of eastern filbert blight (EFB) on European hazelnut, from diseased branches pruned from trees were measured. In each of two years, branches bearing stromata of A. anomala were cut in mid-December and compared to branches cut near budbreak in March,...

  • Diversity and Impact of Soft Rot Pathogens of Potato in the Columbia Basin

    Creator:
    Brazil, Jessie A.
    Abstract:
    Bacterial soft rot of potato (Solanum tuberosum), caused by Pectobacterium and Dickeya species, is among the most common and destructive potato diseases in the United States. These pathogens cause a variety of vascular wilts, and in potato cause a disease complex that includes tuber soft rot, blackleg, aerial stem rot,...

  • Susceptibility of coast redwood seedlings to Phytophthora ramorum

    Creator:
    Lucas, Sunny L.
    Abstract:
    Coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens) (D. Don) Endl. is a host for Phytophthora ramorum but it was unclear if the pathogen represents a significant disease risk to this tree species. In this study the susceptibility of coast redwood seedlings and the likelihood of sporulation on redwood were examined. Two methods were...

  • Pathogenicity of Phytophthora species from Oregon waterways

    Creator:
    Navarro, Sarah M.
    Abstract:
    Described as one of the most destructive pathogens of agricultural crops and forest trees, Phytophthora is a genus of microorganisms containing over 100 known species. Phytophthora alni has caused collar and root disease in alders throughout Europe and a form of the species has recently been isolated in North America....

  • Host and Pathogen Genetics in the Sharp Eyespot Disease of Wheat

    Creator:
    Liu, Jiang
    Abstract:
    Wheat sharp eyespot (SES), caused by the soil-borne fungus Rhizoctonia cerealis is a common stem disease of wheat globally. The disease caused a severe and extensive epidemic throughout the Willamette Valley of Oregon in 2014 and has remained one of the most important wheat diseases in this region. However, litte...
