Stress response as a basis for disease susceptibility in Ponderosa Pine

Creator:: Koonce, Andrea
Abstract:: Trees stressed by artificial and natural means were sampled for response in growth and vigor, carbohydrate content, resin pressure characteristics, and water relations. Tree response was found to reflect both the severity and type of stress imposed. Crown color and appearance were reliable indicators of prolonged stress and advanced decline...

Distribution and variation of Armillariella mellea clones in relation to vegetative cover and severity of root rot in Ponderosa pine

Creator:: Cooley, Sally Joan
Abstract:: Root rot due to Armillariella mellea (Vahl. ex Fr.) Karst. is unusually severe in ponderosa pine near Glenwood, Washington. Isolate relations, clonal variability, vegetation patterns, and climate were examined in relation to severity of disease in this area. Ninety-one isolates from 70 infection centers were examined. Pairings of neighboring isolates...

Detection of dwarf mistletoe in young-growth ponderosa pine from color aerial photography

Creator:: Hann, David W.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine if infection levels of dwarf mistletoe on ponderosa pine could be detected with color aerial photography. The photography was taken in early September using Kodak Ektachrome Infrared Aero and Ektachrome Aero films at scales of 1/4000, 1/2000, and 1/1000. Ground truth consisted...

The role of lytic enzymes in biocontrol of sapstain fungi

Creator:: Liu, Jiajian
Abstract:: The biocontrol potential of Trichoderma harzianum strains B-2A, B-8A, B-4B, B-15B, and B-41 and Serratia plymuthica was evaluated using agar plates and wood wafers of unseasoned ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa laws). All five isolates of Trichoderma harzianum and Serratia plymuthica could inhibit stain fungi growth in agar plates and exhibited...

Effects of environment and genetics on western pine shoot borer, Eucosma sonomana, infestation levels in ponderosa pine plantations of central Oregon

Creator:: Prueitt, Sara C.
Abstract:: Infestations of the western pine shoot borer (Eucosma sonomana Kearfott) in young stands of ponderosa pine (Pinusponderosa Lawson), were surveyed on the Deschutes National Forest. Elevation, slope, aspect, tree height, tree diameter, number of shoots in the terminal whorl, stand density, stand age and plant association for each stand were...

Effect of site and silvicultural treatment on insect pests and diseases of young ponderosa pine

Creator:: Norlander, Daniel W. D.
Abstract:: Ponderosa pine is an important species both commercially and ecologically in western North America. This study considers the incidence of insect and disease pests on a series of replicated ponderosa pine research plantations in northern California. The studies, on an environmental gradient, contain a series of silvicultural treatments including vegetation...

Pine butterfly (Neophasia menapia) outbreak in the Malheur National Forest, Blue Mountains, Oregon : examining patterns of defoliation

Creator:: DeMarco, Ariadne T.
Abstract:: The pine butterfly (Neophasia menapia C. Felder & R. Felder) (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) is a relatively host-specific defoliator of ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Dougl. ex Laws). From 2008 to 2012, the Malheur National Forest was subject to an outbreak of pine butterfly in ponderosa pine, peaking at ~100,000 ha of forest...

Prescribed fire in a ponderosa pine stand in the Blue Mountains, Oregon : relationships among post-fire scolytidae incidence, delayed tree mortality, snag decay dynamics, and woodpecker snag use

Creator:: Kangas, Michael
Abstract:: Delayed tree mortality is an unpredictable occurrence when prescribed burning is implemented. Fire scorched trees may die as the result of crown scorching, stem charring, root injury, bark beetle attack, or through a combination of these factors. This study examined ponderosa pine mortality and the incidence of two bark beetle...

Extraction of proteins from wood samples colonized by bioprotectants and/or stain fungi

Creator:: Cui, Li
Abstract:: Biological stain (blue stain) reduces wood value and prevents its use in many structural applications. Increasing environmental concerns have restricted the chemicals available for controlling this damage. As a result, biological control has received more interest. The application of these systems to wood has been limited due to their inability...

Thelytokous and dioecious populations of Phenacaspis pinifoliae (Fitch), (Homoptera : Diaspididae)

Creator:: Stimmann, Michael W.
Abstract:: Two populations of the pine needle scale, Phenacaspis pinifoliae (Fitch), were studied. One population was located in Corvallis, Oregon, and the other population was located near Santiam Pass, Oregon. Both populations were feeding on Pinus contorta. The Corvallis population was unisexual, univoltine, and over wintered as both eggs and adult...

Factors influencing the production and survival of inoculum of Elytroderma deformans

Creator:: Laird, Peter Paul
Abstract:: This study concerns factors affecting production and survival of ascospores of Elytroderma deformans (Weir) Darker, a needle cast of ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Laws.). The results show that summer cooling and a reduction in host vigor delays and diminishes the number of fertile hysterothecia produced. Evidence is offered for classification...

Hazard rating system for spruce weevil (Pissodes strobi) in Sitka spruce in the northern Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Lysak, Teresa
Abstract:: The spruce weevil (Pissodes strobi) is a serious pest of Sitka spruce in Oregon. Weevils cause damage by killing the leader of a tree, resulting in defects such as crooks and forks that can render the tree unmerchantable. In this study, spruce stands 16-25 years old were surveyed for weevil...

Field classification of white pine blister rust stem-cankers on resistant western white pine in northern Idaho and determination of respective tissue damage through tree ring analysis

Creator:: Eckert, Amy I.
Abstract:: Western white pine historically dominated northern Idaho’s forested landscape and was the Inland Empire’s most economically important tree. White pine blister rust, caused by the exotic fungus Cronartium ribicola, played a principal role in the decline of western white pine. The pathogen causes branch and bole cankers, which usually girdle...

Creator:: Agne, Michelle C.
Abstract:: Lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) forests are widely distributed throughout western North America. However, the lodgepole pine forests of central Oregon are ecologically unique to the region, with a mixed severity fire regime, low cone serotiny, and their occasional presence as a climax species. Most of the research conducted regarding the...
