Creating Useful and Useable Climate Tools for Sagebrush Land Management Through Scientist and Manager Collaboration

Creator:: Brown, Melanie
Abstract:: The sagebrush ecosystem, home to numerous plant and animal species including big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) and the endemic greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus), has endured fragmentation and degradation of both quantity and quality due to the cumulative and synergistic relationships between an abundance of individual disturbances including grazing, invasive annuals and...

Temperature Dependence of Cu₃₋xSb₁₋[subscript y]M[subscript y]S₄ (M=Sn,Ge) Resistivity and Thermopower

Creator:: Mutch, Joshua
Abstract:: An experimental apparatus is modified to allow measurements of the Seebeck coefficient and resistivity to be taken simultaneously. This apparatus is designed for bulk and thin film samples between temperatures of 10 K and 300 K. The apparatus is constructed such that these simultaneous measurements do not interfere with each...

Structural and functional analysis of the finished genome of the recently isolated toxic Anabaena sp WA102

Creator:: Brown, Nathan M., Mueller, Ryan S., Shepardson, Jonathan W., Landry, Zachary C., Morré, Jeffrey T., Maier, Claudia S., Hardy, F. Joan, and Dreher, Theo W.
Abstract:: Background: Very few closed genomes of the cyanobacteria that commonly produce toxic blooms in lakes and reservoirs are available, limiting our understanding of the properties of these organisms. A new anatoxin-a-producing member of the Nostocaceae, Anabaena sp. WA102, was isolated from a freshwater lake in Washington State, USA, in 2013...

Biomass Supply Curves for Western Juniper in Central Oregon, USA, Under Alternative Business Model and Policy Assumptions

Creator:: Lauer, Chris, McCaulou, Jeff C., Sessions, John, and Capalbo, Susan M.
Abstract:: This study estimates a supply of juniper from private lands to determine how much of the available juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook) can be economically supplied at alternative prices if a market was to develop for using juniper as a biomass source. While juniper is native to central Oregon, current land...

Differences in sensitivity to the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis among amphibian populations

Creator:: Bradley, Paul W., Gervasi, Stephanie S., Hua, Jessica, Cothran, Rickey, D., Relyea, Rick A., Olson, Deanna H., and Blaustein, Andrew R.
Abstract:: Contributing to the worldwide biodiversity crisis are emerging infectious diseases, which can lead to extirpations and extinctions of hosts. For example, the infectious fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd) is associated with worldwide amphibian population declines and extinctions. Sensitivity to Bd varies with species, season, and life stage. However, there is...

Characterizing perpendicular-to-grain compression (C-perpendicular to) behavior in wood construction

Creator:: Basta, Craig Thomas, Gupta, Rakesh, Leichti, Robert J., and Sinha, Arijit
Abstract:: Current compression perpendicular-to-grain (C-perpendicular to) design values for wood members are based on mean stress obtained from ASTM D143 specimen. The standard ASTM test with metal on wood bearing has limited applicability in modern construction assemblies with C-perpendicular to loading scenarios. Previous work has shown that end-bearing conditions and wood-on-wood...

Age structure, developmental pathways, and fire regime characterization of Douglas-fir/western hemlock forests in the central western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Tepley, Alan J.
Abstract:: Descriptions of the fire regime in the Douglas-fir/western hemlock region of the Pacific Northwest traditionally have emphasized infrequent, predominantly stand-replacement fires and an associated linear pathway of stand development, where all stands proceed along a common pathway until reset by the next fire. Although such a description may apply in...

Diverse Evolutionary Trajectories for Small RNA Biogenesis Genes in the Oomycete Genus Phytophthora

Creator:: Bollmann, Stephanie R., Fang, Yufeng, Press, Caroline M., Tyler, Brett M., and Grünwald, Niklaus J.
Abstract:: Gene regulation by small RNA pathways is ubiquitous among eukaryotes, but little is known about small RNA pathways in the Stramenopile kingdom. Phytophthora a genus of filamentous oomycetes, contains many devastating plant pathogens, causing multibillion-dollar damage to crops, ornamental plants, and natural environments. The genomes of several oomycetes including Phytophthora...

A Phytophthora sojae effector suppresses endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated immunity by stabilizing plant Binding immunoglobulin Proteins

Creator:: Jing, Maofeng, Guo, Baodian, Li, Haiyang, Yang, Bo, Wang, Haonan, Kong, Guanghui, Zhao, Yao, Xu, Huawei, Wang, Yan, Ye, Wenwu, Dong, Suomeng, Qiao, Yongli, Tyler, Brett M., Ma, Wenbo, and Wang, Yuanchao
Abstract:: Phytophthora pathogens secrete an array of specific effector proteins to manipulate host innate immunity to promote pathogen colonization. However, little is known about the host targets of effectors and the specific mechanisms by which effectors increase susceptibility. Here we report that the soybean pathogen Phytophthora sojae uses an essential effector...
