Propagule sources, disturbance characteristics and the inital establishment of riparian vegetation after debris flows

Creator:: Gecy, Jeanne Leslie
Abstract:: Debris flows are a major cause of disturbance to riparian vegetation. Both observational and experimental studies were used to examine the initial recovery of riparian vegetation after debris flows on headwater streams in the western Cascades of Oregon. My goal was to determine the roles of seedlings and vegetative sprouts,...

Revegetation in the 1914-1915 devastated area of Lassen Volcanic National Park

Creator:: Bailey, Warren Hutchinson, 1914-
Abstract:: At the time of the eruptions of Lassen Peak in 1914-1915, an area of vegetation along the east slope of the mountain approximately 1 1/4 miles wide and four miles long was destroyed. Except for a few surviving trees, all vegetation was destroyed. A study of the revegetation of this...

Histological examination of Phytophthora ramorum in Notholithocarpus densiflorus bark tissues

Creator:: Botts, Molly M.
Abstract:: Colonization of N. densiflorus tissues by P. ramorum is not well understood. The pathogen is able to colonize nearly all tissues of this host but it is unclear how a tree is ultimately killed. Because this is such a destructive invasive pathogen, it is important to investigate its pathogenic strategy....

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...

Seedborne Phytophthora infestans : effect of pathogen clonal lineage and potato cultivar on seed transmission of late blight and plant growth responses

Creator:: Partipilo, Heather M.
Abstract:: Seed piece to plant transmission of the potato late blight pathogen, Phytophthora infestans, occurred with isolates of the clonal lineages US-8 in Oregon and US-11 in Washington in field trials. Average transmission rate across potato cultivars was 0.5 and 2.4% with US-8, and 0.8 and 1.0% with US-11 in 1999...

The use of flowering crab apples for the detection of latent viruses in apples

Creator:: Reynolds, James Edward
Abstract:: Recent investigations indicate that several latent viruses of apples exist in common commercial apple stocks, but these viruses and their relationships are incompletely understood. This thesis describes investigations of crab apples as indicators of latent viruses of apples. Eighty-eight varieties and species of crab apples were tested as indicators of...

An evaluation of the invasion potential of Kochia prostrata (forage kochia) in southwestern Idaho, USA

Creator:: Gray, Erin C.
Abstract:: Purposeful introductions of exotic species for rehabilitation efforts following wildfire are common on rangelands in the western U.S., though potential ecological impacts of introduced species in novel environments are often poorly understood. One such introduced species, Kochia prostrata (L.) Schrad (forage kochia) has been seeded on over 200,000 ha throughout...

Evolutionary relationships and an investigation of sympatric speciation within Limnanthaceae

Creator:: Meyers, Stephen C.
Abstract:: Limnanthes floccosa ssp. floccosa and L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora are two of five subspecies of Limnanthes floccosa endemic to vernal pools in southern Oregon and northern California. Three seasons of monitoring natural populations have quantified that L. floccosa ssp. grandiflora is always found growing sympatrically with L. floccosa ssp. floccosa...

Soil water pressure and Verticillium dahliae interactions on potato

Creator:: Gaudreault, Suzanne M.
Abstract:: A greenhouse experiment was conducted in 1991 and in 1992 to determine the effect of soil water pressure on potato (cv Russet Burbank) plant growth and infection by Verticillium dahliae. Soil water pressures of -0.01, -0.03, -0.08, or -0.15 MPa were combined factorially with two inoculum concentrations, 0 or 10...
