Abstract:: Nucleic acid extracted from dormant cane phloem of grapevines affected by grapevine stem-pitting disease (SP) formed a high molecular weight (MW) band on 1.0% and 0.8% agarose gels. The band was unique to diseased vines. Other bands appeared from samples of both diseased and virus-free vines, but did not associate...

Abstract:: An important disease of Vitis vinifera production in Oregon and all other commercial growing regions is powdery mildew of grape, caused by the obligate fungal pathogen Uncinula necator (Schwein.) Burril. Grape production can be characterized as a long-term investment in the establishment and maintenance of the vineyard. Establishment times have...

Creator:: Warneke, Brent W.
Abstract:: Grape powdery mildew (GPM, causal agent Erysiphe necator) is the most economically important disease of grapevine in the Western U.S. Low levels of GPM infection on clusters (1-5%) can negatively affect wine sensory quality, so intensive fungicide programs are common. This may lead to problems like excessive fungicide use and...

Creator:: Lowder, Sarah R.
Abstract:: The scale of pest and disease dispersal is often larger than the scale of individual farms. Therefore, an individual grower’s response to pests and diseases can affect and is affected by their surrounding growing region. Individual growers are also not isolated, and engage in various forms of information gathering, sharing,...

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...

Abstract:: Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) pose a severe threat to crop production with the economic losses due to nematode parasitism in excessive of US$ 80 billion each year. Meloidogyne incognita, a globally distributed pest with a diverse host range, contributes significantly to this economic loss. The most reliable way to manage PPN...

Abstract:: Diseases can be a substantial threat to woody plant production, a major industry in Oregon. Boxwood (Buxus spp.) and rhododendron (Rhododendron subgenus Rhododendron and Hymenanthes) represent the top two broadleaf evergreen woody plants by farmgate value in Oregon. Historically, Phytophthora root rot has been considered the most destructive disease of...

Creator:: Bates, Taylor A.
Abstract:: Disease detection through traditional techniques such as scouting fields on foot, molecular assays, or morphological identification of plant pathogens is time consuming and costly. Disease diagnosis in the field can be extremely subjective, and largely depends on the experience and knowledge of pathogen identification and disease quantification. This thesis provides...
