Responses and relationships among Fusarium species, sweet corn, and western spotted cucumber beetles

Creator:: Miller, Nathan L. (Nathan Louis)
Abstract:: Sweet corn (Zea mays L.) yields in the Willamette Valley of Oregon have been declining since the early 1990’s. Studies were done to determine if there is a relationship between ear weight and several disease parameters including necrotic crowns or stalk nodes, nodal root rot, radicle root rot, and sub-crown...

Pathogenesis and intertree transmission of Verticicladiella wageneri in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii)

Creator:: Hessburg, Paul F.
Abstract:: Verticicladiella wageneri Kendr. is a vascular wilt pathogen of Douglas-fir in the Pacific Northwest, The disease is characterized by black staining of colonized sapwood; crown symptoms are those typical of a wilting syndrome. Histopathological studies revealed that the pathogen is limited to the xylem but causes vascular dysfunction in both...

Response to fenamiphos, extraction techniques and population dynamics of Pratylenchus penetrans on western Oregon red raspberry

Creator:: Lolas, Mauricio
Abstract:: The effects of fenamiphos on soil and root populations of Pratylenchus penetrans were evaluated in four red raspberry cv. Willamette fields in Northwestern Oregon. Field 1 was a silty clay loam with 53% organic matter (OM). Field 2 and 3 were silty loam soils with 3.25 and 2.55% OM, respectively...

Escape in Time: Phenology Mitigates Impacts of the Introduced Cinnabar Moth, Tyria jacobaeae, on Native Herb Senecio triangularis in Western Oregon

Creator:: Lunde, A. Katarina
Abstract:: Classic biological control can be a powerful option for those tasked with managing biological invasions; however, some biocontrol releases lead to non-target attack – feeding, damage or development on species other than the target species. The cinnabar moth, Tyria jacobaeae L. (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) was introduced to Western Oregon as a...

Presence and pathogenicity of Fusarium and Verticillium species in commercial red radish (Raphanus sativus) seed production in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Bomberger, Rachel A.
Abstract:: Commercial radish seed producers in the Willamette Valley of Oregon have observed a late season wilt in their seed fields. Twenty-two fields were surveyed for wilt in the Willamette Valley during June through August 2012 and 2013. Plants exhibiting wilt symptoms were collected from the fields and examined for vascular...

Laboratory studies of bacteriophagous nematodes as potential vectors of insect pathogens

Creator:: Wright, Billie Dean
Abstract:: Three species of bacteriophagous nematodes, Pristionchus lheritieri (Maupas) Paramanov, Pelodera chitwoodi (Bassen) Dougherty and Rhabditis sp. were studied to determine their potential roles as vectors of selected insect pathogens, Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner, Beauveria bassiana (Balsamo) Vuillemin, Metarrhizium anisopliae (Metchnikoff) Sorokin and a nuclear polyhedrosis virus of Trichoplusia ni Hubner. Chlorine...

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...

Systematics and phylogeny of Cordyceps and the Clavicipitaceae with emphasis on the evolution of host affiliation

Creator:: Sung, Gi-Ho
Abstract:: Cordyceps is a genus of perithecial ascomycetes. It includes over 400 species that are pathogens of arthropods and parasites of the truffle genus Elaphomyces. Based on the morphology of cylindrical asci, thickened ascus apices and filiform ascospores, it is classified in the Clavicipitaceae (Hypocreales), which also includes endophytes and epiphytes...

Genomics-enabled exploration of insect toxicity in the Pseudomonas fluorescens group

Creator:: Rangel, Lorena I.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas is a diverse genus of Gamma proteobacteria that are ubiquitous in the natural environment, including soil, water, plant surfaces, and animals. The Pseudomonas fluorescens group is a diverse collection of seven subgroups and more than 50 named species. This group is known for their production of a variety of...

Lichen Studies of Tropical Dry Forest: A Systematic and Ecological Approach

Creator:: Miranda-González, Ricardo
Abstract:: In recent years, our ecological knowledge of tropical dry forests has increased dramatically. However, whole components of the ecosystem, like lichenized fungi, remain mostly unknown. Crustose lichens in these forests are so abundant, that they are responsible for the characteristic appearance of a “white bark forest” during the dry season....
