The lentil strain of pea seedborne mosaic virus, PSbMV-L, was
distinguished from the standard isolates of PSbMV by a natural inoculum
reservoir in lentil seed and by separate resistance genes in Pisum
and Lens. PSbMV-L was intermediate in symptom severity between the
standard and New Zealand isolates of PSbMV.

A descriptive model of the routing of sediment that was
delivered to the study area by the 1980 eruptions of Mount St.
Helens has been developed. On hillslopes this sediment was
distributed among three major storage compartments: 1) the tephra
profile, 2) primary storage, and 3) secondary storage. The most...
Investigations of 16S rRNA gene sequences hallmark modern microbiology. These sequences provide culture-independent insight into the abundance and distribution of microbiota and serve as a principle resource through which microbial community diversity is measured. Consequently, researchers rely on 16S gene sequences to test hypotheses rooted in ecology, evolution, and disease....
New data are presented that provide evidence for the onset of extensional deformation in the Northwestern Basin and Range within 1 million years after the eruption of the Steens Basalt at 16.5 Ma. New geologic mapping (1:24,000), stratigraphic sections, and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating of the Crane Basin rocks provide a control...
This paper lists, and gives individual accounts of, those Oregon mammals that at some time have been referred to as being of a status other than common. Although rare and endangered wildlife species were listed on a national level in the United States, the
large areas of land included in...
The purpose of this research was to examine the
effects of fishing on life history parameters of the spiny
lobster, Panulirus homarus. The study areas selected had
different levels of fishing pressure but relatively similar
habitats. The lowest fishing effort was found in Hadbin
while the highest fishing effort was...
We describe a set of data flow techniques and code transformations that translate a single instruction stream, multiple data stream (SIMD) Dataparallel C program into a semantically equivalent single program, multiple data stream (SPMD) C program suitable for execution on shared memory multiprocessor computers, such as the Sequent Balance and...
My thesis examines how the American identity is constructed through thinking shaped by deception and domination, as James Baldwin argues in the corpus of his work. I rely on the work of Eddie Glaude Jr., Sean Kim Butorac, and Joel Schlosser to forward love in Baldwin’s political vision as being...
The prehistory of Central Oregon is explored through the examination of six archaeological sites and two isolated finds from the Upper Deschutes River Basin. Inquiry focuses on the land use, mobility, technological organization, and raw material procurement of the aboriginal inhabitants of the area. Archaeological data presented here are augmented...
The significance of geology is commonly overlooked by the general public and underrepresented in free-choice learning environments including national parks that exhibit spectacular examples of geological features and processes. Parks are a major contributor to public learning, and a key way to teach how geology influences many aspects of our...
