Improving Best Management Practices for Potato Production in the Columbia Basin : An Evaluation of Essential Oils for Control of Verticillium Wilt and the Fate of Chloride in the System

Creator:: Light, Sarah Elizabeth
Abstract:: Although the potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a global crop, few growing regions rival the high yields of the Columbia Basin of Eastern Oregon and Washington. Two research projects were conducted in Hermiston, OR to contribute to best management practices for the region. The first project evaluated the efficacy of...

Development and Application of Tools for Genetic Analysis of Clonal Populations

Creator:: Kamvar, Zhian N.
Abstract:: Research on the population genetics of microbial organisms requires the use of specialized analyses designed for clonal organisms to avoid violating the assumptions of traditional population genetic models. The tools necessary for performing these analyses existed as a set of unrelated software with non-overlapping capabilities and did not cover all...

Phytosanitation of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) logs to mitigate the risk of artificially disseminating Phytophthora ramorum within the global trade of timber

Creator:: Hulbert, Joseph M.
Abstract:: Phytophthora ramorum is a plant pathogen that was accidentally introduced to the United States. This invasive microorganism has killed over a million trees in California and Oregon, and continues to spread to new areas. Diseased areas have been nationally quarantined to prevent further spread and more than ninety countries include...

Phylogeography and Evolution of Effector Genes in Phytophthora Species

Creator:: Shakya, Shankar K.
Abstract:: Plant pathogens in the genus Phytophthora are known to cause disease on field crops, nursery plants, and forest trees. The best known example probably is Phytophthora infestans, which triggered the infamous Irish potato famine. Other important Phytophthora species include: P. ramorum (sudden oak death pathogen), P. sojae (soybean root rot...

Distribution of Phytophthora rubi and Pratylenchus penetrans in Pacific Northwest Red Raspberry (Rubus idaeus) Fields

Creator:: Kroese, Duncan R.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest produces over 95% of the nation’s processed red raspberries, valued at over $65 million. Two of the major soilborne pathogens effecting the production of raspberry in this region are the oomycete Phytophthora rubi, which causes root rot in red raspberry plants, and the plant-parasitic nematode Pratylenchus penetrans,...

Impact of raspberry bushy dwarf virus, raspberry leaf mottle virus, and raspberry latent virus on plant growth and fruit crumbliness in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) 'Meeker'

Creator:: Quito-Avila, Diego F.
Abstract:: The United States is the third-largest producer of raspberries in the world. Washington State leads the nation in red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) production. 'Meeker', the most grown red raspberry cultivar in the Pacific Northwest (Washington, Oregon and British Columbia, Canada) is highly susceptible to Raspberry crumbly fruit, a virusinduced...

Investigations of Black Leg and Light Leaf Spot on Brassicaceae Hosts in Oregon

Creator:: Claassen, Briana J.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest is an internationally important region for the production of Brassica seed and other seed crops including grass seed. Oregon lawmakers mandated research into the co-existence of canola (Brassica napus) with other Brassica production in the Willamette Valley and House Bill 2427 was signed into law in 2013,...

Dynamics of Zymoseptoria tritici Fungicide Resistance in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Hagerty, Christina H.
Abstract:: The development of resistance to multiple fungicide classes is currently limiting disease management options for many pathogens, while the discovery of new fungicide classes has become less frequent. To address this pressing issue, a three-part study with different layers of complexity, objectives, and experimental approaches was conducted using the model...

The effects of Phytophthora ramorum stem inoculation on aspects of tanoak physiology and xylem function in saplings and seedlings

Creator:: Stamm, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: Phytophthora ramorum, an oomycete plant pathogen, is the causal agent of sudden oak death, a serious disease of Fagaceous trees in California and Oregon over the last decade. Tanoak (Notholithocarpus densiflorus) is one of the most susceptible host species, but the cause of host mortality is poorly understood. Previous research...

Pathogenicity of Phytophthora species from Oregon waterways

Creator:: Navarro, Sarah M.
Abstract:: Described as one of the most destructive pathogens of agricultural crops and forest trees, Phytophthora is a genus of microorganisms containing over 100 known species. Phytophthora alni has caused collar and root disease in alders throughout Europe and a form of the species has recently been isolated in North America....
