Assessment of black vine weevil larval damage to cranberries and development of alternative control strategies

Creator:: Miller, Elizabeth A. (Elizabeth Ann)
Abstract:: Black vine weevil (BVW), Otiorhynchus sulcatus Fabricius, is a serious pest in cranberry, Vaccinium macrocarpon. Larvae feeding below the soil surface cause damage to the roots and underground stems. Knowledge is sparse in regard to the damage potential of BVW in Pacific Northwest cranberry beds. Control with insecticides is limited...

Description and analysis of dietary preference of lingcod in the nearshore zone, Oregon

Creator:: Tinus, Craig A.
Abstract:: The lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus) is an important groundfish species in both recreational and commercial fisheries of the Northeastern Pacific. It is a large, fast-growing, generalist predator of invertebrates and fishes. In response to concerns that lingcod may limit populations of rockfishes (Sebastes spp.), I compared the diets of 375 adult...

Duration and rate of grain filling and subsequent grain protein content in selected winter wheat populations

Creator:: Mou, Beiquan
Abstract:: The lack of information regarding the inheritance of the duration and rate of grain filling, and the possible relationship between grain fill and grain protein content in wheat prompted this study. Early maturing Chinese cultivars, 'AI Feng 2' and 'CB 83-52', and late maturing cultivars adapted to Oregon, 'Stephens' and...

Differential transmission of strawberry mottle virus by Chaetosiphon thomas Hille Ris Lambers and Chaetosiphon fragaefolii (Cockerell)

Creator:: Eulensen, Gustav Egon
Abstract:: The transmission of strawberry mottle virus (SMV) to Fragaria vesca L. by Chaetosiphon thomasi and C. fragaefolii was studied to determine differences between the two species. Acquisition, inoculation, and retention phases of transmission were described. In all phases, C. fragaefolii was found to be the more efficient vector. Mean transmission...
