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...

Reproduction, demography, and habitat characterization of Astragalus peckii (Fabaceae), a rare central Oregon endemic

Creator:: Martin, Elizabeth F.
Abstract:: With little previous research on Astragalus peckii (Fabaceae), a state-listed Threatened species in Oregon, I investigated three facets of its biology which are integral to the conservation and management of the species. First, a four-year demographic study of two large populations revealed increasing population growth at one site (Chiloquin) and...

Impact of raspberry bushy dwarf virus, raspberry leaf mottle virus, and raspberry latent virus on plant growth and fruit crumbliness in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) 'Meeker'

Creator:: Quito-Avila, Diego F.
Abstract:: The United States is the third-largest producer of raspberries in the world. Washington State leads the nation in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) production. 'Meeker', the most grown red raspberry cultivar in the Pacific Northwest (Washington, Oregon and British Columbia, Canada) is highly susceptible to Raspberry crumbly fruit, a virusinduced...

Identification of Endogenous and Exogenous Pararetroviruses in Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) and Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Diaz Lara, Alfredo
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest (Oregon and Washington in the United States and British Columbia in Canada) is one of the major producers of red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) and blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) in the world. The expansion of growing area with these crops has resulted in the emergence of new...

Biology, epidemiology, and biological and chemical control of Phytophthora vignae

Creator:: Fernando, W. Gerard Dilantha
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...

The role of ethylene in ectomycorrhiza formation and Fusarium infection of Douglas fir roots

Creator:: Graham, James Herbert
Abstract:: The ectomycorrhizal fungi Cenococcum geophilum, Hebeloma crustuliniforme and Laccaria laccata produced ethylene in vitro in modified Melin-Norkrans liquid medium only if amended with 2.5 to 10 mM methionine; Pisolithus tinctorius failed to produce ethylene unless the cultures were renewed with fresh methionine-amended medium prior to ethylene assay. An additional 19...

Forecasting Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides foot rot of winter wheat

Creator:: Grybauskas, Arvydas P.
Abstract:: The use of fungicides for the control of foot rot of winter wheat, caused by Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides (Fron) Dei., requires a forecast of disease risk to optimize this management practice ecologically and economically. Foot rot occurs in both the mild, wet (100+ cm, ppt./year) annual cropped areas in western Oregon,...

Epidemiology of disease caused by Pseudomonas syringae as an epiphyte and its frequency, distribution, and characteristics as an endophyte of pear

Creator:: Whitesides, Steven K.
Abstract:: Conditions were established for inducing pear blossom blast caused by Pseudomonas syringae (Ps) on both attached and detached shoots. The incidence of disease was proportional to the log of Ps population under optimal temperature, moisture and bloom developmental stage. Highest incidence of infection followed occurrence of a major exotherm in...

Biology and control of Fusarium spp. on Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii)

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...
