Reproductive isolation and interspecific hybridization in the threatened species, Sidalcea nelsoniana

Creator:: Gisler, Steven D.
Abstract:: In addition to its longstanding recognition as an influential evolutionary process, interspecific hybridization is increasingly regarded as a potential threat to the genetic integrity and survival of rare plant species, manifested through gamete wasting, increased pest and disease pressures, outbreeding depression, competitive exclusion, and genetic assimilation. Alternatively, hybridization has also...

Conservation of Sidalcea nelsoniana through habitat management : effects of burning, mowing, and altered flooding regime on a rare Willamette Valley perennial

Creator:: Bartels, Marilynn R.
Abstract:: Active habitat management plays a key role in the preservation of native ecosystems and rare species, especially in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, where natural succession to woodlands threatens the few wetland prairies remaining after 150 years of agriculture and urbanization. Sidalcea nelsoniana, listed as threatened under the federal Endangered...

Potential of Trichoderma sp. for inhibition of Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on snap beans

Creator:: Nelson, Mark E.
Abstract:: Isolates of Trichoderma spp. collected from snap bean foliage were tested for inhibition of grey mold of snap beans caused by Botrytis cinerea. In a detached blossom-pod assay an isolate of Trichoderma hamatum reduced pod rot by 94% compared to the nontreated check. Control was comparable to that obtained with...

Forest structure and regeneration in the Tsuga heterophylla - Abies amabilis transition zone, central Western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Stewart, Glenn H.
Abstract:: The dynamics of stands in the mid-elevation old-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests of the central western Oregon Cascade Range were investigated using stand structure analysis. Trees with different growth rates were commonly present in the same stand, which resulted often in a weak correlation between tree diameter and age. Thus,...

Lichen communities and caribou habitat in Denali National Park and Preserve, Alaska, USA

Creator:: Nelson, Peter R.
Abstract:: Lichens play many important roles in subarctic terrestrial ecosystems by fixing nitrogen, colonizing rock and gravel, stabilizing otherwise bare soil, adding significantly to vegetation biodiversity and serving as the primary food for caribou in the winter. In these chapters, I analyzed lichen community and ecological trait structure along environmental gradients,...

Relationship of Pratylenchus penetrans (Cobb, 1917) population density and yield of peppermint, Mentha piperita L.

Creator:: Pinkerton, John Nelson
Abstract:: A root-lesion nematode, Pratvlenchus penetrans, was determined to be a major component of peppermint stand decline in Western Oregon. Regression analysis showed that P. penetrans root densities in August were negatively correlated (P=0.01) with yield, while soil densities in August and root and soil densities in April were poorly correlated...

Is Resistance Futile: Examining Fitness Costs Associated with QoI Resistance in E. necator

Creator:: Newbold, Chelsea L.
Abstract:: Quinone outside Inhibitor (QOI) fungicides are one of the most widely used fungicide classes (FRAC 11) in the world. This popularity is the result of their ability to effectively manage a wide array of economically important pathogen species on a broad range of crops. While having mostly preventative activity, some...

Conservation of Rorippa columbiae : an evaluation of reintroduction potential through the study of germination ecology, propagation methods, and habitat requirements

Creator:: Kentnesse, Laura E.
Abstract:: Rare plant reintroductions are a critical conservation tool for the augmentation of diminishing populations, or re-establishment of extirpated populations. Analysis of reintroduction failures suggests that a sophisticated understanding of species biology, ecology, and habitat is essential for producing self-sustaining rare plant populations. This study sought to generate that background knowledge...

Conservation of Oenothera wolfii (Onagraceae) : introducing a threatened plant into two protected locations in Oregon

Creator:: Currin, Rebecca E.
Abstract:: The showy biennial to short-lived perennial Oenothera wolfii (Munz) Raven, Dietrich & Stubbe (Wolf’s evening primrose) occurs in only a small number of isolated populations on the southern Oregon and northern California coast. This rare species is currently listed as Threatened in Oregon, and is considered a Species of Concern...
