A cytogeographical study was made of populations of tetraploid
(n=18) and hexaploid (n=27) Achillea millefolium (Compositae-
Anthemideae) from the Pacific Coast states. There is a complex
distributional pattern, involving overlapping ranges, mixed populations,
migration of one form into areas occuplied by the other,
pentaploid hybrids, and septaploid and octoploid plants....
Developmental changes in the storage organ of Brassica
campestris L. were followed from the organization of the embryonic
radicle and hypocotyl to the mature storage organ. Three independent
primary meristems gave rise to the cortex, the stele, and the
root cap-epidermis. The primary development is typical of the
Cruciferae. Cambial...
Field, growth chamber, and greenhouse studies were carried
out to evaluate factors that cause low seed set in Dactylis Glomerata
L. The variety, 'Latar', and the parental clones of the variety,
'Pennlate', were studied in detail.
Floral anatomy investigations indicated that 98 percent of
Dactylis flowers opened at Corvallis in...
The Columbia River Gillnetter is the pilot of the Lower Columbia River commercial fishing industry, keeping fishermen and the public in touch with today's important issues.
The theory and ways of applying a new electroanalytical detectior
method were developed. The method, called galvanovoltammetry,
consists of the measurement of current from the bipolar electrode of
a three electrode cell which consists of a working electrode and a
counter electrode, between which a constant current is applied, and...
Plecoptera were collected from four sampling stations selected
to represent a range of conditions on Oak Creek, a small woodland
stream originating in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range. The
elevation of Site I was 700 ft. while the lowest site was located at 225
ft. Monthly benthos samples...
