Exploration of the feasibility of developing a winter hardy 'Marion' blackberry through genetic engineering

Creator:: Meng, Rengong
Abstract:: Experiments focusing on plant growth regulators’ concentrations and combination, mineral salt formulations and TDZ pretreatment formations were conducted to optimize in vitro shoot regeneration from leaf and petiole explants of 'Marion' blackberry. Optimum shoot formation was obtained when stock plants were incubated in TDZ pretreatment medium for three weeks before...

Variation and heritability of vegetative, reproductive and fruit chemistrytraits in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.)

Creator:: Dossett, Michael
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are ill adapted...

An integrated study of mechanical forest fuel reduction: quantifying multiple factors at the stand level

Creator:: Bolding, Michael Chad, 1977-
Abstract:: Recent catastrophic wildfires have forced the forest management community to develop new strategies for reducing forest fuels. Tightly spaced understory trees often create a fire ladder allowing surface fires to encroach into the crowns of overstory trees. This situation can lead to intensive, catastrophic, stand-replacement forest fires. Mechanical removal or...

Fingerprinting and genetic stability of Rubus using molecular markers

Creator:: Castillo, Nina Rosa F.
Abstract:: Two studies used DNA markers to assess their usefulness in germplasm identification and evaluation of genetic stability in four cryopreserved Rubus accessions that were stored for over 10 years in liquid nitrogen. In the first study, 12 robust Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) markers were developed from two microsatellite-enriched libraries of...

Investigation of postharvest quality and storability of hardy kiwifruit (Actinidia arguta 'Ananasnaya')

Creator:: Landis Fisk, Connie
Abstract:: The objectives of this project were to determine the effects of harvest maturity, packaging, and storage conditions on subsequent fruit quality of Actinidia arguta ‘Ananasnaya’ and to investigate the use of edible coatings to improve fruit quality and storage life. The influences of harvest maturity (6.0, 8.7, 9.1, and 15.1%...

Factors influencing nest success of greater sandhill cranes at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon

Creator:: Ivey, Gary L.
Abstract:: I developed a priori hypotheses and used logistic regression to model Greater Sandhill Crane (Grus canadensis tabida) nest success in relation to weather, habitat and management variables for cranes breeding at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge (MNWR) in southeast Oregon. My primary interest was to investigate the effects of habitat conditions...

Tractor thinning productivity and costs : experience from the Willamette Young Stand Project

Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Davis, Chad T. (Chad Thomas), and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Harvesting productivity rates and costs were determined for three silvicultural treatments used in commercial ground-based thinning of young stands to achieve timber management objectives and enhance wildlife habitat. Treatment definitions were based on residual trees per acre (tpa) after thinning. The treatments were light thin (115 residual tpa), light thin...

Quantities of prostaglandins in whole and extended bovine semen and their potential effect on fertility following insemination

Creator:: Jaeger, John Ralph
Abstract:: Our objectives were to determine 1) the concentration of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) in whole and extended bovine semen, 2) if concentrations of prostaglandins in extended bovine semen are correlated to fertility, and 3) if PGF2α administered at the time of artificial insemination would improve conception rate. Concentration of PGF2α tended...

Academic libraries at the center of instructional change : Faculty and librarian experience of library leadership in the transformation of teaching and learning

Creator:: Gilchrist, Debra L.
Abstract:: This phenomenological inquiry explored the experiences of library leaders and discipline faculty members engaging in a collaborative instructional change initiative focused on a process-based learning pedagogy and led by an academic library. The investigation’s purpose was providing insight and understanding concerning the: (a) library’s role in instructional leadership; (b) experience...
