Hare barley (Hordeum murinum ssp. leporinum) biology and management in cool season perennial grass pastures of western Oregon

Creator:: Haavisto, Jessica Lee
Abstract:: Hare barley (Hordeum murinum ssp. leporinum) is a cool season annual grass that invades pastures and range areas around the world. A documented weed management issue in several Oregon counties, hare barley may infest several thousand acres in western Oregon. This study was conducted to investigate the biology and develop...

Best weed management practices for organic snap beans in western Oregon

Creator:: Peachey, Ronald Edward and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Weeds in snap beans drag down yield and contaminate products sent to processors or markets. They may even make it impossible to harvest the crop mechanically. It is worth the effort to be proactive when managing weeds in row crops. Proactive rather than reactive approaches are essential to successful management...

Isolation and Pathogenicity of Naturally Occurring Entomopathogenic Fungi to Clover Root Borer (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae), a Pest of Red Clover Seed Crops

Creator:: Lestari, Anis S.
Abstract:: Entomopathogenic fungi are cosmopolitan microbial pathogens that cause fungous diseases in a wide range of insects via spore infection. Due to their natural enemy status, they have tremendous potential for use as microbial control agents against insect pests, especially subterranean pests for which few management options are available. The clover...

Structuring habitat to conserve ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) and reduce summer annual weeds in agroecosystems

Creator:: Green, Jessica M.
Abstract:: Weed management in sustainable farming systems often requires the integration of several different pest management techniques. Cultural, biological, and chemical pest control efforts can be utilized to contribute to the common goal of reducing weeds in vegetable row crop systems. This research addresses how common disturbances such as tillage and...

The epidemiology of sudden oak death in Oregon forests

Creator:: Peterson, Ebba K.
Abstract:: The phytopathogen Phytophthora ramorum (Werres, DeCock & Man in't Veld), causal agent of Sudden Oak Death (SOD) of oaks (Quercus spp.) and tanoaks (Notholithocarpus densiflorus syn. Lithocarpus densiflorus), is established in coastal forests of the western United States. Since the discovery of SOD in the Douglas-fir / tanoak forests of...

Volatile composition of Pinot Noir grapes and wines under different viticultural practices in western Oregon

Creator:: Feng, Hui
Abstract:: High vegetative growth of Pinot Noir vine is a common problem in most vineyards of Oregon's Willamette Valley, where sunlight exposure and heat accumulation are limited. Consequently, growers in this region commonly use vineyard management strategies to regulate vine vigor and improve grape and wine quality. Wine quality is greatly...

The combined effects of vegetation control and seedling size class on Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedling productivity on a site in Oregon

Creator:: Lefebvre, Robert F.
Abstract:: Controlling competing vegetation with the application of herbicides and increased seedling size at planting has been shown to increase seedling survival and growth. These two important reforestation tools have often been studied independently of each other, limiting comparisons that can be made between them. This study utilized a factorial treatment...

Non-target Effects of Biological Control: Ecological Risk of Tyria jacobaeae (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) to Senecio triangularis (Asteraceae) in Western Oregon

Creator:: Rodman, Madison G.
Abstract:: Non-target effects are one of the greatest potential risks of weed biological control programs, and understanding non-target effects of biological control at the population level is crucial for predicting when they will occur and altering the perception of biological control as a whole. In this thesis, we assessed the ecological...

Evaluating compatibility of horticultural oils and sulfur with vineyard IPM

Creator:: Gadino, Angela Noelle, Walton, Vaughn M., Dreves, Amy J., Jones, Gregory V., Brewer, Linda J., and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: Typhlodromus pyri (T. pyri) is a beneficial insect and key predator of Calepitrimerus vitis (C. vitis) in Pacific Coast vineyards. C. vitis is closely associated with short-shoot syndrome. The impact of horticultural (paraffinic) oils and sulfur on T. pyri is presented here. This publication contributes to integrated pest management and...

Effects of biocide treatment on durability and fungal colonization of teak, western redcedar, and redwood

Creator:: Cabrera Orozco, Yohanna
Abstract:: Treating durable, second-growth or plantation-grown material with supplemental chemicals could improve durability while enhancing the uniformity of the products. To test this hypothesis, the effect of two candidate biocide treatments on the durability of teak, redwood, and western redcedar was assessed in a ground proximity field test established in Hawaii....
