Relationships of exotic species and wildfire to the threatened plant Silene spaldingii

Creator:: Menke, Carolyn A.
Abstract:: In the canyon grasslands of Garden Creek Ranch Preserve in Idaho, where the threatened plant Silene spaldingii occurs and invasion by the exotic species Centaurea solstitialis and Bromus tectorum is proceeding rapidly, I examined environmental and community patterns of site invasion, and evaluated the apparent influence of invasion on Silene...

Mediation of conifer root growth by mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth regulators

Creator:: Scagel, Carolyn F.
Abstract:: Many mycorrhizosphere microorganisms can produce plant growth regulating compounds in vitro. Plant growth regulating compounds are known to mediate root growth and development. In reforestation practices, conifer tree seedling growth and survival are linked to rapid root growth and development after outplanting. Multifactorial experiments were conducted to document variations in...

The biology and control of Phytophthora root and stem rot of apple rootstocks from stool beds

Creator:: Tidball, Carolyn Jean
Abstract:: The present studies were conducted to better understand the etiology, epidemiology and potential control of the Phytophthora stem root rot as it occurs in apple stool beds. Symptoms of Phytophthora root and stem rot occurred as early as May and continued to develop throughout the growing season. Sunken brown-black lesions...

A systematic and ecological study of Astragalus diaphanus (Fabaceae)

Creator:: Wright, Carolyn E.
Abstract:: Astragalus diaphanus is a rare plant endemic to the John Day River drainage of north-central Oregon. This species has several interesting features, including the dimorphism of its fruit and its geographical isolation from the two nearest taxonomically related species, which occur in Colorado. This study addressed the species' distribution and...

Environmental Factors Affecting Phytophthora Root Rot of Rhododendron

Creator:: Mestas, Angie
Abstract:: Phytophthora root rot decreases availability and quality of rhododendrons produced in the USA. Symptoms of Phytophthora root rot include root necrosis, leaf chlorosis, stunting, and permanent wilt. The purpose of this thesis was to better understand the impact of root damage, soil moisture, nitrogen fertilizer application, and pathogen species on...

An experimental reintroduction of Pleuropogon oregonus, a rare wetland grass native to Oregon

Creator:: Groberg, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Pleuropogon oregonus Chase is a rare wetland grass endemic to eastern Oregon. The species is composed of two widely separated populations, one in Lake County and one in Union County. In order to reduce the risk of extinction, the Oregon Department of Agriculture Native Plant Conservation Program initiated several reintroduction...

The influence of prescribed fire on the rare endemic plant Delphinium pavonaceum (Peacock larkspur)

Creator:: McKernan, Brie-Anne
Abstract:: In the wetland prairie of William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge (FNWR) in western Oregon, we investigated the response of Delphinium pavonaceum Ewan (peacock larkspur, Ranunculaceae), an endangered perennial forb, to four unreplicated dormant season fire regimes of 0, 2, 4, or 10 fires that were applied over a 12-year...

Cytokinin antagonists and antibiotics related to nalidixic acid : effects on Phaseolus and Nicotiana callus tissues

Creator:: Marsden, Katherine E.
Abstract:: The effects of five cytokinin antagonists on the growth of cytokinin-autonomous lines of Phaseolus lunatus cv. Kingston, Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Great Northern, and Nicotiana tabacum cv. Wisconsin 38 callus tissues have been compared. The antagonists tested included four N⁴-substituted 4-amino-2-methylthiopyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidines bearing the following N⁴ side chains, 4-n-pentyl- (ms²pnN⁴Prp), 4-n-hexyl- (ms²HxN⁴Prp),...

Cytokinin oxidase activity from Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Great Northern callus tissues

Creator:: Chatfield, J. Mark
Abstract:: Cytokinin oxidase activity in callus tissues of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Great Northern has been examined using an assay based on the oxidation of radioactively labeled N⁶ -(Δ² -isopentenyl) adenine (i⁶Ade) to adenine (Ade). Conditions for the quantitative extraction and assay of the enzyme have been established. The substrate specificity...

Investigations into the physiology of nitrogen fixation : Part I. Nickel metabolism of plants and bacteria : Part II. Peroxide scavenging in soybean root nodules

Creator:: Dalton, David Andrews
Abstract:: PART I. The concentration of nickel in some soils may be insufficient to meet the requirements of enzymes such as urease in soybeans and hydrogenase in Rhizobium. Nickel availability in soils was examined by measuring microbial urease activity in soils which were treated with glucose and urea. Supplemental nickel was...
