This publication reviews the growth stages of grapes. For each growth stage (or group of growth stages), the document lists the more effective pesticides used to control insects, weeds, and disease, their rates, and application timing for Oregon grape growers. It also covers the effectiveness of various fungicides for control...
Presents pesticide and herbicide application rates and recommendations, by tree growth stage, for pests that infect fruit trees. Covers apples, pears, and cherries. Provides (1) spray program for nutrients; (2) dilutions table for wettable powder and liquid products; (3) natural enemy impact guide for tree fruit pesticides; (4) illustrated bud...
During the spring of 2014, 176 members of the International Association of Aquatic and Marine Science Libraries and Information Centers completed a survey on their participation in and expectations of IAMSLIC. Their responses and comments are presented to inform planning and communication. The results were presented at the 40th annual...

The first wave energy test at the Northwest National Marine Renewable Energy Center’s (NNMREC) North Energy Test Site (NETS) off the coast of Newport, OR took place in 2012 with the deployment of the WET-NZ wave energy conversion (WEC) device and the Ocean Sentinel instrumentation buoy. The WET-NZ and Ocean...
Oregon Wave Energy Trust (OWET) is a nonprofit public-private partnership funded by the Oregon Innovation Council. Its mission is to support the responsible development of wave energy in Oregon. OWET emphasizes an inclusive, collaborative model to ensure that Oregon maintains its competitive advantage and maximizes the economic development potential of...

This report provides a quick overview of Oregon’s recent crop and livestock production. The following pages include 2010 preliminary estimates for production and value. In addition, there are revised estimates for 2008 and 2009. Preliminary or first estimates are revised as needed when updated information is received. All of the...

Biodiversity information is made available through numerous databases that each have their own data models, web services, and data types. Combining data across databases leads to new insights, but is not easy because each database uses its own system of identifiers. In the absence of stable and interoperable identifiers, databases...
A label-free, photoluminescence (PL) based biosensor for 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) detection was developed by functionalizing diatom biosiilica with a TNT-specific single-chain variable fragment (scFv). The scFv loading was estimated to be 0.040±0.003 (μg scFv/μg biosilica). In saturated concentration, TNT binding to scFvbiosilica quenched about 13% of its PL. Dose response follows...
The differentiation of precursor cells into mature adipocytes (adipogenesis) has been an area of increased focus, spurred by a rise in obesity rates. Though our understanding of adipogenesis and its regulation at the cellular level is growing, many questions remain, especially regarding the regulation of the metabolome. The 3T3-L1 cell...
Bacteria are abundant in marine environments. They play important roles in nutrient cycling and form symbiotic interactions with eukaryotes. However, the vast majority of bacterial taxa are difficult to maintain in laboratory cultures, meaning that most microbiological research of the past century has focused on a small subset of bacteria....
Plant wax lipids and lignin phenols are the two most common classes of molecular markers that are used to trace vascular plant-derived OM in the marine environment. However, their ¹³C and ¹⁴C compositions have not been directly compared, which can be used to constrain the flux and attenuation of terrestrial...
The yields of over 200 projectile-like fragments (PLFs) and target-like fragments (TLFs) from the interaction of (E[subscript]c.m.=450 MeV) Xe¹³⁶ with a thick target of Pb²⁰⁸ were measured using Gammasphere and off-line γ-ray spectroscopy, giving a comprehensive picture of the production cross sections in this reaction. The measured yields were compared...
The thrust of this thesis is to study oral solid dosage formulation using hot melt coating method and to use pharmacokinetic modeling and simulation (PK M&S) as a tool that can help to predict pharmacokinetics of a drug in human and the probability of passing various bioequivalence criteria of the...
Spotted-wing drosophila (SWD, Drosophila suzukii) is an invasive fruit fly species native of Southeast Asia. In vineyards, SWD lays eggs in damaged and intact fruit of the most soft-skinned varieties, and feeds on damaged fruits during the harvest period. Feeding and oviposition activities increase the likelihood of vectoring spoilage bacteria,...
