Abstract:: Entomopathogenic fungi are cosmopolitan microbial pathogens that cause fungous diseases in a wide range of insects via spore infection. Due to their natural enemy status, they have tremendous potential for use as microbial control agents against insect pests, especially subterranean pests for which few management options are available. The clover...

Creator:: Dreves, Amy J.
Abstract:: In Oregon’s northern Willamette Valley, cabbage maggot (CM), Delia radicum (L.) (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) often renders Brassica root crops unmarketable. Scheduled insecticides are the only current control. Studies were conducted to: 1) describe and characterize spring emergence of CM flies and their seasonal flight activity relative to degree-day (DD) accumulations; 2)...

Creator:: Ross, Kyle C.
Abstract:: Small broomrape, a holoparasitic weed, is a relatively new weed introduction in the Pacific Northwest that has contaminated a limited number of red clover fields in Oregon. Greenhouse and field studies were conducted to evaluate small broomrape response to common crop and weed species in the Pacific Northwest. Host species...

Creator:: Ochiai, Naoyuki
Abstract:: Increasing regulation and costs of soil fumigation to manage diseases such as Verticillium wilt caused by soil-borne pathogens have prompted a search for management alternatives. Single-year microplot experiments were conducted in 2002 and 2003 in central Oregon to evaluate the effects of Austrian winter pea, broccoli, and Sudan grass green...

Creator:: Park, Kee-Woong
Abstract:: Understanding the mechanism of resistance, relative fitness and competitiveness of herbicide resistant biotypes is important to predict population dynamics and to establish resistance management strategies. This study was conducted to determine the level of resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitors and the mechanism of resistance of ALS-inhibitor resistant downy brome...
