Melee at the Edge of Empire: The Manifestation of the Reservation System in Southwest and Western Oregon 1850-1875

Creator:: Alves, Richard W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to explain why the reservation system manifested so disappointingly for the Native American groups of Southwest Oregon. It seeks to characterize the struggle that raged in Southwest Oregon from 1850 to 1856 between three main groups there: indigenous peoples, white squatters and miners, and...

The Altruism-Empathy-Perspective Connection: A Case Study of Human-Wildlife Interactions at Cintimini Wildlife Rehabilitaion Center, Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Freed, Kirsten S.
Abstract:: In the realms of psychology and sociology two new theoretical models have arisen to describe the forces influencing altruistic human behavior. The first Empathy-Altruism Hypothesis (EAH), by C.D. Batson. The second is the Conceptual Continuum of Altruism (CCA), by K.R. Monroe. Both models have proven to be highly useful in...

Development of a Antibacterial Disc Diffusion Assay to Differentiate Fusarin C from Non-Fusarin C activity in Early Screening of Mutant Fusarium graminearum Extracts

Creator:: Svendsen, Molly, Luelling, Sarah, Adpressa, D., Godbey, Aly, Belizi, Peter, Carlson, Caleb, Loesgen, S., Freitag, M., Smith, Kristina, and Gautschi, Jeff
Abstract:: The discovery of novel compounds with antibacterial properties continues to be critically important.3 One potential source of such compounds is the cryptic genome of fungi known to produce biologically active molecules. A kmt6 mutant of the cereal pathogen Fusarium graminearum was previously developed through a histone H3 lysine 27 methyltransferase...

Friends For Lonely Gods: A Fantasy Linked Short Story Collection

Creator:: Marie-Rose, Madeleine A.
Abstract:: In real life, reputation and community can shape a person’s identity, actions, and fate. The goal of this thesis is to explore those connections through the lens of a fantasy universe where humans and fictional gods clash and coexist. These gods are not all-knowing and powerful, but fallible individuals who...

Development of a new molecular diagnostics tool for Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Creator:: Fuller, Skylar, Savory, Elizabeth, Weisberg, Alex, and Chang, Jeff
Abstract:: Agrobacterium tumefaciens causes the economically important plant disease, crown gall. These galls are the result of abnormal growth that manifests itself on either the root or the stem and can be devastating for the ornamental plant industry. Introduction of A. tumefaciens to a nursery can be highly detrimental and thus...

Old McDonald had a Microscope: The Impact of Research Spending on U.S. Agricultural Productivity

Creator:: Rietmann, Benjamin J.
Abstract:: The United States is a global leader in agricultural productivity. Much of its productivity growth can be attributed to public investments in agricultural research and development, starting in the 19th century and continuing until today. Past studies have shown high returns to agricultural research investments, but publicly funded agricultural research...

Characterizing novel bacterial isolates that inhibit the growth of gall-forming phytopathogenic bacteria

Creator:: Belcher, Michael S.
Abstract:: Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Rhodococcus fascians are plant pathogenic bacteria that can induce crown and leafy galls on plants, respectively. Infection by these bacteria results in disfigured, unsellable plants, leading to significant economic losses to the nursery industry. A. tumefaciens and R. fascians are capable of infecting a broad range of...

The role of the actin cytoskeleton in plant/pathogen interactions

Creator:: Pena, Meesha and Chang, Jeff
Abstract:: As part of an HHMI funded research project, I showed that overexpression (OE) of actin (ACT2) in Arabidopsis thaliana alters the expression of genes involved in plant immunity. Others have previously shown that knockout (KO) mutants of actin depolymerizing factor 4 are affected in the same gene as ACT2-OE. For...

The Development of Computational Methods for Studying Plant-Pathogen Interactions

Creator:: Pankow, Rebecca C.
Abstract:: Modern technology has enabled the advancement of biological research through the use of powerful machines and computers as well as innovative computer programs. Advances in sequencing technology and software enable us to make de novo assemblies of organism genomes, and the development of specialized computer programs can automate routine but...

Identification of Pseudomonas syringae genes required for perception of host-derived virulence-inducing metabolites

Creator:: Turner, Sydney E.
Abstract:: Pseudomonas syringae is a Gram-negative bacterium that can infect a variety of important crops. Infection by P. syringae is dependent on a type III secretion system (T3SS) that delivers effector proteins to plant cells to suppress host defenses. Previous work has shown that, in the presence of simple sugars, specific...
