An experimental reintroduction of Pleuropogon oregonus, a rare wetland grass native to Oregon

Creator:: Groberg, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Pleuropogon oregonus Chase is a rare wetland grass endemic to eastern Oregon. The species is composed of two widely separated populations, one in Lake County and one in Union County. In order to reduce the risk of extinction, the Oregon Department of Agriculture Native Plant Conservation Program initiated several reintroduction...

An Extension of the Plant Ontology Project Supporting Wood Anatomy and Development Research

Creator:: Lens, Frederic, Cooper, Laurel, Gandolfo, Maria Alejandra, Groover, Andrew, Jaiswal, Pankaj, Lachenbruch, Barbara, Spicer, Rachel, Staton, Margaret E., Stevenson, Dennis W., Walls, Ramona L., and Wegrzyn, Jill
Abstract:: A wealth of information on plant anatomy and morphology is available in the current and historical literature, and molecular biologists are producing massive amounts of transcriptome and genome data that can be used to gain better insights into the development, evolution, ecology, and physiological function of plant anatomical attributes. Integrating...

Responses of algal populations to parasitism by Aphelidium chlorococcarum and chytrids in an Oregon sewage lagoon

Creator:: Woods, Wendy W.
Abstract:: The abundance of algal species and their parasites was monitored weekly for two years in a sewage lagoon at the Corvallis Airport, Oregon. During the cooler months, Euglena species were dominant followed by a Chlamydomonas assemblage in the spring and a predominantly Scenedesmus assemblage in the summer and fall. Parasites...

Photoacclimation in Marine Phytoplankton Under Various Light and Nutrient Regimes and the Resulting Effect on Photosynthetic Electron Flow and Chlorophyll Fluorescence Transients

Creator:: Brown, Matthew B.
Abstract:: Photoacclimation is the process by which plants and phytoplankton adjust the concentration and composition of their photosynthetic machinery (i.e. their photoacclimation state) in response to changes in their light or nutrient environment. The purpose of photoacclimation is to balance the rate at which light energy is absorbed with the energetic...

Plastome phylogenomics in the genus Pinus using massively parallel sequencing technology

Creator:: Parks, Matthew Benjamin
Abstract:: This thesis summarizes work completed over the previous four years primarily focusing on chloroplast phylogenomic inquiry into the genus Pinus and related Pinaceae outgroups using next-generation sequencing on Illumina platforms. During the time of our work, Illumina sequence read lengths have essentially been limited to 25 to 100 base pairs,...

Separating the wheat from the chaff: mitigating the effects of noise in a plastome phylogenomic data set from Pinus L. (Pinaceae)

Creator:: Parks, Matthew, Cronn, Richard, and Liston, Aaron
Abstract:: Background: Through next-generation sequencing, the amount of sequence data potentially available for phylogenetic analyses has increased exponentially in recent years. Simultaneously, the risk of incorporating ‘noisy’ data with misleading phylogenetic signal has also increased, and may disproportionately influence the topology of weakly supported nodes and lineages featuring rapid radiations and/or...

Mitigating cyanobacterial harmful algae blooms : the role of plant humics

Creator:: Theis, Susan A. F.
Abstract:: Cyanobacterial harmful algae blooms (cyanoHABs) are a growing concern worldwide due to damage of ecosystems and threats to human health. Previous research indicates that plant humics from aquatic and wetland vascular plants are effective inhibitors of cyanobacterial metabolism and growth and may be useful as control agents for mitigating cyanoHABs....

Performance of Willamette Valley native plants following herbicide exposure

Creator:: Blakeley-Smith, Matthew R.
Abstract:: Prairies were once the dominant vegetation type in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Land use conversion, fire suppression, succession, and invasive species have reduced Willamette Valley prairies to less than 1% of their historical area. The remnant prairies that persist today are small in size and are highly fragmented. Marginal strips of...

Phytosanitation of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) logs to mitigate the risk of artificially disseminating Phytophthora ramorum within the global trade of timber

Creator:: Hulbert, Joseph M.
Abstract:: Phytophthora ramorum is a plant pathogen that was accidentally introduced to the United States. This invasive microorganism has killed over a million trees in California and Oregon, and continues to spread to new areas. Diseased areas have been nationally quarantined to prevent further spread and more than ninety countries include...

Population Density and Phenology of Tetranychus urticae (Acari: Tetranychidae) in Hop is Linked to the Timing of Sulfur Applications

Creator:: Woods, J. L., Dreves, A. J., Fisher, Glenn C., James, David G., Wright, Larry C., and Gent, D. H.
Abstract:: The twospotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, is a worldwide pest of numerous agronomic and horticultural plants. Sulfur fungicides are known to induce outbreaks of this pest on several crops, although mechanisms associated with sulfur-induced mite outbreaks are largely unknown. Studies were conducted during 2007–2009 in Oregon and Washington hop...
