The genus Anthracobia Boudier (Pezizales, Ascomycetes)

Creator:: Larsen, Harold J.
Abstract:: A taxonomic revision of the genus Anthracobia Boudier is presented. The genus and eight included taxa are described and figured. A discussion of the taxonomic criteria used to delimit the genus and the species is included, and a key to the recognized taxa is given. Four imperfect states for included...

The structure and dynamics of old-growth Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) forest of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Quaye, Eric Charles
Abstract:: The objectives of this study are to: 1) study the variations among stands of old-growth Sitka spruce forest located within a relatively restricted geographical area, 2) determine the relationship between species distribution, vegetational pattern, and such site factors as slope and aspect, and 3) ascertain the abruptness of phytosociological change...

Succession and certain adaptive features of plants native to the sand dunes of the Oregon coast

Creator:: Kumler, Marion Lawrence, 1941-
Abstract:: The vegetation of the Oregon coast is characterized by a variety of stages of plant succession which are repeated widely throughout the sand dune area. During the years from 1960 to 1963 the gradation of upland sand dune succession was studied on 48 plots within a 150 mile section of...

Soil fungal hyphal dynamics and seasonal hypogeous sporocarp production in western Oregon Douglas-fir forests

Creator:: Hunt, Gary, 1945-
Abstract:: Total length and biomass of fungal mycelium in the soil of a young Douglas-fir stand in the central Oregon Coast Range were estimated over 27 months with the agar-film technique. In a second study, phenology and taxonomy of hypogeous (belowground) sporocarps were studied over 32 months in a nearby, young...

Taxomony and mycorrhizal ecology of the desert truffles in the genus Terfezia

Creator:: Alsheikh, Abdulmagid M.
Abstract:: Mycorrhizal fungi in arid and semiarid rangelands have received little study in southwest Asia and north Africa, although they are important in food production and rangeland productivity. The desert truffles of the genera Terfezia and Tirmania form fruiting-bodies and mycorrhizae with rangeland plants. This thesis treats the taxonomy and the...

Resistance mechanisms of Port-Orford-cedar to Phytophthora lateralis

Creator:: Oh, Eunsung
Abstract:: Breeding Port-Orford-cedar for resistance to Phytophthora lateralis, a causal agent of root disease, begins by screening, through artificial inoculation, phenotypically resistant trees selected from natural stands. The successful program selected tolerant or resistant POC parent trees for the purpose of disease management. Candidate resistant POCs were used in my dissertation...

Phylogeny, cospeciation, and host switching in the evolution of the ascomycete genus Rhabdocline on Pseudotsuga and Larix (Pinaceae)

Creator:: Gernandt, David S.
Abstract:: The relative role of cospeciation and host switching in the phylogenetic history of ascomycete foliar symbionts is addressed in the orders Leotiales and Rhytismatales, fungi associated predominantly with Pinaceae (Coniferales). Emphasis is placed on comparing the evolution of the sister genera Pseudotsuga and Larix (Pinaceae) with that of the pathogenic...

Mediation of conifer root growth by mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth regulators

Creator:: Scagel, Carolyn F.
Abstract:: Many mycorrhizosphere microorganisms can produce plant growth regulating compounds in vitro. Plant growth regulating compounds are known to mediate root growth and development. In reforestation practices, conifer tree seedling growth and survival are linked to rapid root growth and development after outplanting. Multifactorial experiments were conducted to document variations in...

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...
