Characterization of the molecular foundations and biochemistry of alkane and ether oxidation in a filamentous fungus, a Graphium species.

Creator:: Skinner, Kristin M.
Abstract:: Graphium sp., a eukaryotic alkanotroph, is able to oxidize small-molecular weight gaseous n-alkanes, diethyl ether and the branched ether, methyl tert butyl ether (MTBE). However, information regarding the biochemistry of fungal-mediated alkane and ether metabolism is limited, and questions regarding the identity of alkane oxidation catalysts and the genetic underpinnings...

The effects of ultraviolet irradiation on the photosynthetic apparatus

Creator:: Mantai, Kenneth Edward
Abstract:: The effects of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on photosynthesis and various partial reactions involving the individual photoreactions of photosynthesis were examined. These reactions included photo-reduction in adapted green algae, Hill reaction, cyclic photophosphorylation, the 520 nm absorbance change and variable-yield fluorescence. The reactions were measured in spinach chloroplasts and isolated chloroplasts...

Genetic variability in the eastern filbert blight pathosystem

Creator:: Osterbauer, Nancy K.
Abstract:: The heritability of resistance to eastern filbert blight, caused by Anisogramma anomala, in European hazelnut (Corylus avellana) was evaluated in the progeny of seven cultivars crossed in 12 combinations. Progeny produced by crossing 'VR6-28' with three susceptible cultivars segregated 1:1 for complete resistance to eastern filbert blight. Histograms of disease...

Diagnosis and Etiology of a Soilborne Disease Complex of Winter Squash (Cucurbita maxima) in the Willamette Valley, OR

Creator:: Rivedal, Hannah M.
Abstract:: Winter squash (Cucurbita maxima) grown in Oregon’s Willamette Valley for edible seed, frozen foods, and fresh markets is susceptible to an undiagnosed soilborne disease. Diseased squash fields exhibit symptoms of stunting, root and crown rot, vascular discoloration, and late-season wilt, which in extreme cases can lead to total crop failure....

Mulching to Manage Mummy Berry of Blueberry

Creator:: Florence, Jade
Abstract:: Monilinia vaccinii-corymbosi pseudosclerotia overwinter on the soil surface and produce apothecia in early spring, providing primary inoculum for Mummy Berry Disease of blueberry. Burial under 2.5 cm of soil or the absence of light have previously been identified as critical factors preventing the development of apothecia. Mulches were applied to...

Biology and management of Meloidogyne chitwoodi using oxamyl on potato in the western United States

Creator:: David, Nicholas L.
Abstract:: Field trials were conducted during 2001 to 2003 to investigate soil population dynamics of Meloidogyne chitwoodi, tuber symptom suppression using oxamyl, and post-harvest tuber symptom development on short-season potato varieties Russet Norkotah and Russet Nugget (San Luis Valley only). The experiments were located in the San Luis Valley in Colorado,...

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...

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...
