Distributional patterns and taxonomic structure of diatom assemblages in Netarts Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Whiting, Mark Carlos
Abstract:: Epiphytic, planktonic and benthic diatom assemblages were investigated in Netarts Bay, Oregon. Samples were collected for a one-year period from February 1980 to March 1981. A planktonic flora was observed only during periods of offshore enrichment when marine neritic species were abundant and were transported into the bay by tidal...

Interactions between paired cultures as a basis for differentiating compatibility genotypes of Fomes cajanderi Karst. from glaze-damaged Douglas-fir

Creator:: Adams, David Howard
Abstract:: A study was undertaken to determine the reliability of the formation of a line of demarcation between paired cultures of Fomes cajanderi Karst. as an indicator of dissimilar compatibility genotypes. The results were applied to an assay of the number and location of compatibility genotypes in each of four glaze-damaged,...

Effects of current velocity, irradiance, and herbivory on algal assemblages in laboratory streams

Creator:: Steinman, Alan D.
Abstract:: Effects of current velocity, irradiance, and grazing on the biomass, taxonomic structure, physiognomy, and chemical composition of lotic algal assemblages were investigated. Four experiments, lasting 32 to 75 days, were conducted in laboratory streams to determine how these factors affect algal assemblages singly, and in concert with each other. Regardless...

Biological Soil Crusts of the Great Basin : An Examination of their Distribution, Recovery from Disturbance and Restoration

Creator:: Condon, Lea A.
Abstract:: We are at risk of losing the sagebrush steppe in the floristic Great Basin to the invasion of Bromus tectorum L., cheatgrass. The floristic Great Basin includes the Central Basin and Range, the Northern Basin and Range, and the Snake River Plain. The Great Basin receives most of its precipitation...

Successional changes associated with benthic assemblages in experimental streams

Creator:: Busch, David E.
Abstract:: Experimental streams constructed by the Weyerhaeuser Company, Tacoma, Washington, at Kalama Springs, Washington, were used to observe successional changes in the benthos. Community changes were observed relative to experimental manipulations of light intensity and nitrate concentration in two experiments. The development of benthic assemblages was followed for 150 days after...

Effects of the insecticide dieldrin on benthic algae in laboratory streams

Creator:: Rose, Frederick Louis
Abstract:: The accumulation of dieldrin and its effects on species composition of benthic algal communities were studied in laboratory streams. Effects of dieldrin on photosynthetic and respiratory rates of the blue-green alga Phormidium retzii were determined using a Gilson Differential Respirometer. Dieldrin concentrations ranging from 0.05 to 7.0 ppb were maintained...

Seed and seedling ecology of Artemisia tridentata in a restoration context

Creator:: Wijayratne, Upekala C.
Abstract:: The semi-arid sagebrush steppe ecosystem is one of the largest biomes in North America. The steppe provides critical habitat and forage for wildlife and is economically important to recreation and livestock industries. However, the ecosystem is threatened primarily due to several negative effects associated with expansion of the exotic annual...

Identification and distribution of the mating-type locus and development of cleistothecia of Podosphaera macularis

Creator:: Wolfenbarger, Sierra N.
Abstract:: Podosphaera macularis, causal agent of hop powdery mildew, is known to produce cleistothecia (syn. chasmothecia) in eastern North America and Europe, but ascocarps are not reported from the Pacific Northwestern region of North America. Reasons for the apparent absence of cleistothecia in the Pacific Northwest are unknown. We established that...

The Influence of Nitrogen Fertility on Hop Quality, Pest Management, and the Stability of Biological Control

Creator:: Iskra, Anne E.
Abstract:: A multi-year field study was conducted in Oregon and Washington to evaluate the influence of nitrogen fertilization rate and timing on cone quality, nitrate accumulation in cones, severity of powdery mildew (caused by Podosphaera macularis), arthropod pests, and the stability of conservation biological control of the twospotted spider mite (Tetranychus...
