Decadal Changes in Lichen and Vegetation Communities in Relation to Metal Deposition and Climate in Northern Alaska

Creator:: Di Meglio, Elisa B.
Abstract:: The Red Dog Mine transports concentrated zinc and lead ore in northwestern Alaska through Cape Krusenstern National monument along a haul road. High metal levels in the moss Hylocomium splendens along the haul road have been attributed to ore dust released during transport. The mine has implemented several pollution abatement...

The effects of a mutation within vitamin E biosynthesis upon the development and function of the photosynthetic apparatus

Creator:: Sicher, Richard Charles
Abstract:: A new photosystem-II mutant of the green alga Scenedesmus obliquus D₃, strain PS-28, has been shown to lack a-tocopherol (vitamin E). The photosynthetic activity of dark grown samples of PS-28 is about 20% of the wild-type control. Culturing the mutant at low light intentisites (10⁴ ergs/sec-cm ²) stimulates photosynthetic activity...

Quantitative Trait Loci Associated with the Tocochromanol (Vitamin E) Pathway in Barley

Creator:: Graebner, Ryan C., Wise, Mitchell, Cuesta-Marcos, Alfonso, Geniza, Matthew, Blake, Tom, Blake, Victoria C., Butler, Joshua, Chao, Shiaoman, Hole, David J., Horsley, Rich, Jaiswal, Pankaj, Obert, Don, Smith, Kevin P., Ullrich, Steven, and Hayes, Patrick M.
Abstract:: The Genome-Wide Association Studies approach was used to detect Quantitative Trait Loci associated with tocochromanol concentrations using a panel of 1,466 barley accessions. All major tocochromanol types- α-, β-, δ-, γ-tocopherol and tocotrienol- were assayed. We found 13 single nucleotide polymorphisms associated with the concentration of one or more of...

Is Resistance Futile: Examining Fitness Costs Associated with QoI Resistance in E. necator

Creator:: Newbold, Chelsea L.
Abstract:: Quinone outside Inhibitor (QOI) fungicides are one of the most widely used fungicide classes (FRAC 11) in the world. This popularity is the result of their ability to effectively manage a wide array of economically important pathogen species on a broad range of crops. While having mostly preventative activity, some...

The life history of Anisogramma anomala (Pk.) E. Müller (Diaporthaceae) and its pathological and epidemiological association with Corylus avellana L.

Creator:: Gottwald, Timothy Ross
Abstract:: Eastern Filbert Blight, caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Miller, was first discovered in the Pacific Northwest in 1974. Orchard experiments suggest that the fungus completes its life cycle in two years. Infection takes place from mid-January to May, mainly through mite-galled-buds infested with an Eriophyid mite, Phytocoptella avellanae Nal....

Diversity and Impact of Soft Rot Pathogens of Potato in the Columbia Basin

Creator:: Brazil, Jessie A.
Abstract:: Bacterial soft rot of potato (Solanum tuberosum), caused by Pectobacterium and Dickeya species, is among the most common and destructive potato diseases in the United States. These pathogens cause a variety of vascular wilts, and in potato cause a disease complex that includes tuber soft rot, blackleg, aerial stem rot,...

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...

The roles of Verticillium dahliae, Colletotrichum atramentarium, Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora and E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica in "early dying" disease of potatoes

Creator:: Kirkland, Marjorie Lynn
Abstract:: The primary cause of "early dying" disease of potatoes in Oregon is Verticillium dahliae; however, Colletotrichum atramentarium, Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora (Ecc) and E. carotovora subsp. atroseptica (Eca) are also commonly isolated from diseased plants. Therefore, field and greenhouse studies were initiated to determine the relative involvement of each pathogen,...

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...

Stand structures of Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana) woodlands and their relationships to the environment in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Gilligan, Laurie A.
Abstract:: Large areas of non-coniferous communities in southwestern Oregon are thinned to reduce fire hazard and accomplish ecosystem restoration, under the assumption that current fuel loads are unnaturally high. Although Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana) woodlands are a characteristic landscape component in this region, little is known about their current or...
