Population biology of rare mariposa lilies (Calochortus: Liliaceae) endemic to serpentine soils in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Fredricks, Nancy Ann
Abstract:: Population dynamics, plant communities, and abiotic environments of three narrowly endemic, allopatric mariposa lilies (Calochortus Pursh) are described and compared. All were restricted to ultramafic soils in southwestern Oregon with high concentrations of nickel, zinc, and chromium, and low calcium to magnesium ratios. Soils inhabited by the three species differed...

Genetic variability in the eastern filbert blight pathosystem

Creator:: Osterbauer, Nancy K.
Abstract:: The heritability of resistance to eastern filbert blight, caused by Anisogramma anomala, in European hazelnut (Corylus avellana) was evaluated in the progeny of seven cultivars crossed in 12 combinations. Progeny produced by crossing 'VR6-28' with three susceptible cultivars segregated 1:1 for complete resistance to eastern filbert blight. Histograms of disease...

New perspectives on evolutionary relationships within Pinus (Pinaceae) and within subsection Ponderosae (subgenus Pinus)

Creator:: Willyard, Ann Nachreiner
Abstract:: A fossil-calibrated phylogenetic framework based on exemplars from each of the four taxonomic sections within Pinus was created using multiple nuclear and chloroplast loci. Calibration at the well-defined subgeneric split within Pinus with either fossil leaves and cones (ca. 45 million years ago) or fossil wood (ca. 85 million years...

Histological comparisons of needle tissues of four species of white pine infected by Cronartium ribicola

Creator:: Sweeney, Katarina
Abstract:: Hypersensitive response-like (HR-like) needle reactions to infection by the white pine blister rust pathogen, Cronartium ribicola, have been reported for several species of five needle pines native to western North America. The best-studied examples are in Pinus monticola and P. lambertiana. In these species a "needle spot" phenotype has been...

A biochemical analysis of the interaction of victorin and oats

Creator:: Navarre, Duroy A.
Abstract:: Victoria blight of oats is caused by the fungus Cochhobolus victoriae. This fungus is pathogenic due to its ability to produce the host-selective toxin victorin. Previously, a 100-kD protein that binds victorin in vivo only in susceptible genotypes was identified as the P protein of the glycine decarboxylase complex (GDC)....

Incompatibility reactions and nuclear condition of three Phellinus species

Creator:: Hennon, Paul E.
Abstract:: Phellinus arctostaphyli (Long) Niemela, P. igniarius (L. ex Fr.) Quel., and P. tremulae (Bond.) Bond. et Boriss., heartrotting hymenomycetes in the family Hymenochaetaceae (Aphyllophorales), all conform to a multi-allelic heterothallic mating system. Both compatible and incompatible reactions result from pairings of homokaryons from the same basidiocarp. Homokaryons isolated from different...

Analysis of putative elements of plant signal transduction chains

Creator:: Verhey, Steven D.
Abstract:: The thesis begins with an introduction to signal transduction and an analysis of current understanding of plant signal transduction. There are similarities between plants and animals, but also key differences, including lack of protein kinase C and of a cAMP signaling pathway in plants, and presence in plants of calcium...
