Proceedings of the 64th Annual Western Orchard Pest and Disease Management Conference, held January 10-12, 1991 at the Imperial Hotel in Portland, Oregon.
An aspect of the genetic structure of coastal Oregon steelhead was
explored and found to gradually change in a north to south pattern for the
allelic frequencies of several enzymes. Isocitrate dehydrogenase and
superoxide dehydrogenase were the clearest examples of this pattern of
variation. This pattern was most evident in...
The adenovirus replication origins reside in the inverted terminal
repetition (ITR) sequences. Replication proceeds unidirectionally by a
strand-displacement mechanism from either or both origins to produce
duplex daughter DNA plus a displaced parental strand. The displaced
strand can be duplicated by two different routes. The cis pathway involves
intramolecular hybridization...

Computer decision aids can help integrate and apply diverse sources of information and expertise to problems of integrated pest management (IPM) in agriculture and forestry. AppleMgr combines a rule-based expert system with databases and spreadsheets in a prototype decision aid intended to be expanded and modified for use by extension...
The root disease fungus Inonotus tomentosus, common in the old
growth boreal forests of British Columbia, poses a threat to the
health of second growth forests established on sites with a previous
history of root disease. Colonized stumps occur in groups of 1 to 6;
the groups are clumped within...
A partially automated radio-tracking system with semi-continuous
azimuth data collection and XYLOG5 and MAP computer programs for azimuth
data analysis was used for studies of California quail (Callipepla
californica) at the E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Oregon, in 1988 and 1989.
Movements of 58 hens were monitored daily to determine nest...
