Transmission Biology of Raspberry latent virus, the First Aphid-Borne Reovirus

Creator:: Quito-Avila, Diego F., Lightle, Danielle, Lee, Jana, and Martin, Robert R.
Abstract:: Raspberry latent virus (RpLV) is a newly characterized reovirus found in commercial raspberry fields in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). Thus far, all members of the plant reoviruses are transmitted in a replicative, persistent manner by several species of leafhoppers or planthoppers. After several failed attempts to transmit RpLV using leafhoppers,...

The imprint of coarse woody debris on soil biological and chemical properties in the western Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Spears, Julie D. H.
Abstract:: The abundance and spatial heterogeneity of coarse woody debris (CWD) on the forest floor is a prominent feature of Pacific Northwest (PNW) forest ecosystems. The effect of CWD on soil solution chemistry, nutrient cycling and availability, soil physical structure and formation of soil organic matter, however, remains unknown. Therefore, studies...

Ecophysiology of the cyanolichen Lobaria oregana

Creator:: Antoine, Marie E.
Abstract:: This thesis consists of three manuscripts describing ecophysiological research on the cyanolichen Lobaria oregana. The first manuscript includes a re-evaluation of the assumptions underlying past estimates of N fixation by this species and provides an estimate of annual N fixation at the Wind River Canopy Crane (WRCC). Based upon litterfall...

Responses of Pacific Northwest prairies to soil nutrient manipulations : implications for restoration of Castilleja levisecta and control of invasive species

Creator:: Lawrence, Caitlin E.
Abstract:: Pacific Northwest prairies have become significantly reduced in extent, and in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, less than one percent of native upland prairies remain. Many species have been impacted by this extreme loss of habitat, including Castilleja levisecta (golden paintbrush), a threatened hemiparasitic forb species endemic to the Pacific...

Impacts of ponderosa pine forest restoration treatments on the ectomycorrhizal fungal community and fine root biomass in the Blue Mountains of Oregon

Creator:: Smith, Jane E. (Jane Elizabeth)
Abstract:: Before the arrival of Euro-Americans, the inland Pacific Northwest was settled by native people whose frequent intentional burning of the landscape promoted open stands dominated by large fire-resistant ponderosa pine. Fire suppression for nearly a century, livestock grazing, and logging of the largest trees has resulted in forests characterized by...

Epiphytic macrolichens in relation to forest management and topography in a western Oregon watershed

Creator:: Berryman, Shanti D.
Abstract:: This dissertation describes patterns in epiphytic macrolichen community composition, diversity, and biomass across various stand types in the Blue River watershed of western Oregon. It first examines the relative importance of ecological factors such as stand age, remnant tree retention, and topography to lichen communities in the landscape. It then...

The mycorrhizal associations of western hemlock

Creator:: Kropp, Bradley Ray
Abstract:: Two objectives of this research were to identify fungi which are mycorrhizal with western hemlock and to examine the ecology of hemlock mycorrhizal fungi indigenous to outplanting sites. Another objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of mycorrhizal inoculation in improving the performance of outplanted hemlock seedlings. A list of over...

Foliar respiration in an old-growth coniferous forest

Creator:: Cooper, Clifton E.
Abstract:: Foliar respiration forms a large component of the carbon balance of any coniferous forest. We examine seasonal, interannual, spatial and interspecific variation of foliar maintenance respiration in a forest in Washington, USA, with measurements made quarterly for >4 years on 400-year old trees of Pseudotsuga menziesii, Tsuga heterophylla and Thuja...

Cryptogam communities in forest and steppe ecosystems of Oregon, USA

Creator:: Root, Heather T.
Abstract:: I focus on addressing knowledge gaps relating to management of cryptogams in Oregon's public lands in Pseudotsuga menziesii-Tsuga heterophylla forests on the west side of the Cascade Range and dryland steppe in the Cascade Range's rainshadow. While a great deal of research has illustrated the importance of late-successional forests for...

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...
