Biosystematic studies of Phacelia capitata (Hydrophyllaceae), a species endemic to serpentine soils in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Shelly, J. Stephen
Abstract:: Phacelia capitata Rruckeberg is a member of the Phacelia magellanica polyploid complex (species group Magellanicae), a group of wide-ranging, polymorphic perennials in western North America related to the South American P. secunda (= P. magellanica). The purpose of this project was to determine, to the extent possible, the interrelationships of...

Canopy epiphyte studies in the central Oregon Cascades : implications for the management of Douglas-fir forests

Creator:: Sillett, Stephen Charles
Abstract:: This thesis includes four separate studies. The first two studies assessed edge effects in a 700-year-old forest. After 20 years of exposure, epiphyte assemblages on the clearcut edge were similar to those of the forest interior, but there were some differences in vertical distribution patterns. Several species restricted to the...

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...

Soil moisture depletion trends under five plant species present on the Douglas-fir clear-cuts of Mary's Peak, Oregon

Creator:: Drew, Stephen Ernest
Abstract:: Soil moisture depletion trends under five plant species growing on the clear-cuts of the Marys Peak Watershed near Corvallis, Oregon, were followed during the summers of 1963 and 1964. The species were Holcus lanatus, Lotus crassifolius var. subglaber, Gaultheria shallon, Berberis nervosa, and Acer circinatum; and were dominant plants of...

The reproductive ecology of the pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia nutt.) under a range of overstory conditions in western Oregon

Creator:: DiFazio, Stephen P.
Abstract:: The influence of overstory openness on the reproductive ecology of Pacific yew (Taxus brevifolia Nutt.) was investigated on 4 sites in western Oregon over 2 years. The breeding system of T. brevifolia was found to deviate from pure dioecy under a broad range of canopy and site conditions. Production of...

Decay caused by infection of Fomes cajanderi Karst : in top-broken, young-growth Douglas-fir trees

Creator:: Cahill, James M.
Abstract:: A glaze storm of exceptional severity was seen in the Corvallis area, January, 1942. The weight of ice that accumulated in the crowns of young-growth Douglas-fir trees caused widespread top breakage in many stands lying in the broad path of this storm. Early research on this phenomenon showed the majority...

Evolutionary relationships and an investigation of sympatric speciation within Limnanthaceae

Creator:: Meyers, Stephen C.
Abstract:: Limnanthes floccosa ssp. floccosa and L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora are two of five subspecies of Limnanthes floccosa endemic to vernal pools in southern Oregon and northern California. Three seasons of monitoring natural populations have quantified that L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora is always found growing sympatrically with L. floccosa ssp. floccosa...

Reevaluation of systematic relationships in Triticum L. and Aegilops L. based on comparative morphological and anatomical investigations of dispersal mechanisms

Creator:: Morrison, Laura A.
Abstract:: Comparative morphological and anatomical studies of the dispersal mechanisms characterizing the wheat complex (Triticum L. and Aegilops L.) have documented patterns of adaptive radiation which may have significance for evolutionary relationships. These patterns, which form an array of diverse types of diaspores among the diploid taxa, appear conceptually to have...
