In their modern context questions of heredity have come to be
closely aligned with theories of evolution because all such theories
require the presence of heritable variation. Thus the need for an
understanding of a source of variation and a mechanism for its inheritance
became very apparent with the general...
The Willamette Mission archeological project
consists of a broad program of cultural research in the
fields of archeology, history, and architecture. The
study focuses on the first Methodist mission in the
Pacific Northwest. Archeological excavations were
conducted in 1980 to locate the site of the mission, to
assess the site's...

To determine which isolates will most rapidly replace
Phellinus weirii in stumps and roots, Trichoderma spp. were
isolated from P. weirii-infested stumps and roots, identified, and
examined for growth rates and lethal effects on P. weirii in vitro.
Phellinus weirii-infested Douglas-fir stumps and stump roots
were sampled for microorganisms by...
The shallow water benthic habitat of the SW Beaufort Sea is frequently
gouged by the keels of ice pressure ridges. This natural physical
disturbance was hypothesized to be an important factor affecting the
structure of the benthic community. Smith-McIntyre grab samples were
taken from three discrete gouge axes and from...
The relationship between plasminogen activator (PA) production and cell stage, cell number and changes in overall diameter and zona pellucida thickness for bovine embryos developing in vitro was determined. Late morulae to blastocysts (n=80) were collected nonsurgically from naturally mated, estrous-synchronized and superovulated crossbred beef cows. Embryos were cultured, one...
This study was conducted to determine the level of knowledge required
by graduating manufacturing engineering students in various
manufacturing engineering competency areas as perceived by managers
of manufacturing from 17 major manufacturing industrial classifications
in the state of Oregon.
Methods and Procedures
A preliminary listing of competency areas was developed...
The study was designed to determine the effect of doctoral
study upon the marriages of doctoral students.
The sample for the research was drawn from the total population of married doctoral students enrolled in Oregon State University/Western Oregon State College's School of Education and Oregon
State University's College of Home...
