Production and invasion of butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii) in Oregon

Creator:: Ream, Julie
Abstract:: Butterfly bush (Buddleja davidii), an ornamental native to China, is an invasive species in Oregon and many other areas. In Oregon, butterfly bush invades disturbed areas, particularly riparian areas. The Oregon nursery industry has the highest farm-gate value of all agricultural commodities and butterfly bush is a significant plant to...

Marine reserves in The Bahamas and Ecuador : a scientific and socioeconomic perspective

Creator:: Lamb, Robert W.
Abstract:: Marine reserves are known to directly replenish overfished species. However, the community-wide effects of reserves are less clear. I examined the community of coralreef fishes in a large, fully protected marine reserve in The Bahamas: the Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park. Visual-transect surveys provided estimates and comparisons of the...

Social change and children’s well-being in Chile

Creator:: Iwanaga, Kanako
Abstract:: Chilean society has been changing rapidly for the last few decades during a time of rapid economic growth. Some sociological and economical analyses state that when a nation grows, inequality between the rich and poor grows too, leaving the poor behind. The Chilean economy is the most rapidly growing in...

The Antique or Rusty Tussock Moth

Creator:: Gentner, Louis G., 1892-1980
Abstract:: On account of the abundance of the antique tussock moth, and the ease with which material for study can be secured in the vicinity of Corvallis, an investigation of this insect was thought to be a fitting subject for my graduation thesis. The work was begun in the spring of...

Response of reef fish assemblages to overgrowth of the hydrocoral Millepora complanata by the crustose alga Ramicrusta sp.

Creator:: Adams, AnnaRose
Abstract:: Natural disturbances and human activities can alter the benthic composition of coral reefs and other marine ecosystems. Reef fishes that associate with particular structures on the sea floor, such as coral heads, may be vulnerable to perturbations of those habitats. The spread of a newly discovered crustose alga (Ramicrusta sp.)...

Population dynamics and conservation biology of Lupinus sulphureus ssp. kincaidii (Fabaceae)

Creator:: Erhart, Teman
Abstract:: Kincaid's lupine (Lupinus sulphureus ssp. kincaidii [Smith] Phillips) is a federally listed Threatened plant of Willamette Valley prairies. Both low reproduction, due to seed coat dormancy, and competition from invasive plants may threaten the longterm viability of this species. In separate studies, I investigated seed germination and an invasive species...

Discovery and identification of antibacterial agents for dental use

Creator:: Kirkpatrick, Adam G.
Abstract:: Dental disease is a very prevalent and costly disease in which the symptoms, not the disease, are currently being treated. The disease is caused by pathogenic oral bacteria, many of which are a part of the Mutans Streptococci. The objective of this thesis was to find a natural substance that...

Evaluation of Bacterial F1FO-ATPase Inhibitors for Synergistic Effects

Creator:: Heppe, Kenan G.
Abstract:: F1FO-ATP synthase targeting antimicrobials apoptolidin 1 (A1), (+)-erythromefloquine, and oligomycin were tested in vitro for synergistic minimum inhibitory concentrations against Staphylococcus aureus. Synergy was strictly defined as inhibition by at most 25% the MIC of each participating drug. Ampicillin, with an MIC of 0.8 ug/mL, served as a negative control....

Public Cognitions and Emotions Associated with Ocean Acidification and Sea Star Wasting Disease: An Exploratory Study in Oregon

Creator:: Insinga, Maia L.
Abstract:: Marine environments provide services for ecosystems and humans, but face many threats, including sea star wasting disease (SSWD) and ocean acidification (OA). Biological research on these threats is abundant, but there has been limited research examining the human dimensions of these threats. This thesis contains two standalone articles that explore...

Estimating harvest rates to assess the efficacy of marine reserves in the Santa Barbara Channel Islands

Creator:: Yamane, Mark T.
Abstract:: Marine protected areas (MPAs) are used in ecosystem-based management (EBM) to increase the abundance and biomass of targeted species and protect their ecosystems by restricting certain human activities. Marine reserves (i.e. no-take MPAs) aim to achieve this by prohibiting harvest in the area. While MPAs are currently evaluated through assessments...
