Community Ecology and Population Genomics of Rhizopogon in the Madrean Sky Island Archipelago

Creator:: Piña Páez, Carolina G.
Abstract:: Anthropogenic induced climate change is predicted to alter distribution of existing plant populations. As plants migrate over space and time, populations often fragment and contract, affecting basic elements of population dynamics (e.g., population size, gene flow, genetic diversity, etc.). Little is known, however, how these impacts on plant species will...

Fungal Secondary Metabolism of Basidiobolus meristosporus: a Novel Natural Product Reservoir

Creator:: Trautman, Ian A.
Abstract:: Secondary metabolites (SMs) play an integral role in the life history of most fungal species. Fungal metabolomic studies provide insights into how fungi perform certain ecological functions, how they compete and interact with other organisms, and the breadth of fungal chemodiversity. Fungal SMs have also been utilized for a variety...

Secondary Metabolism in Tolypocladium : Characterization, Ecology, Evolution and Regulation

Creator:: Blount, Rheannon Rua
Abstract:: An increased understanding of secondary metabolism in fungi is important for both biological and societal reasons. The ascomycete genus, Tolypocladium, is an ideal system to explore secondary metabolism characterization, ecology, evolution and regulation. The genus produces and has the genomic potential to produce a wide array of metabolites. Paired with...

Genome Organization in the Ectomycorrhizal Truffle Rhizopogon vesiculosus

Creator:: Lu, Dabao Sun
Abstract:: Rhizopogon vesiculosus is a common ectomycorrhizal (EM) symbiont of Pseudotusga menziesii (Douglas-fir) in the coast range of the Pacific Northwest. The species has been studied for its systematics, genet size, population structure, and competitive ability in several field and experimental studies. This thesis seeks to provide a more thorough characterization...

Symbiosis in the Pacific Ring of Fire : evolutionary-biology of Rhizopogon subgenus Villosuli as mutualists of Pseudotsuga

Creator:: Mujic, Alija Bajro
Abstract:: Rhizopogon is a large genus of ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi that grows in association with host trees of the family Pinaceae. We have conducted a series of studies investigating the ecology and evolutionary biology of the EM symbiosis shared between R. subgenus Villosuli and trees of the genus Pseudotsuga. Two members...

Systematic, genomic, and transcriptomic analysis of mycoparasitic Tolypocladium species and their Elaphomyces hosts

Creator:: Quandt, C. Alisha
Abstract:: Fungi in the genus Tolypocladium are diverse in their host associations, but the predominant ecologies include parasites of the ectomycorrhizal genus Elaphomyces and pathogens of insects. The aim of this dissertation research is to examine the evolution of these fungi and their host associations. To accomplish this several lines of...

Systematics of the genus Rhizopogon inferred from nuclear ribosomal DNA large subunit and internal transcribed spacer sequences

Creator:: Grubisha, Lisa C.
Abstract:: Rhizopogon is a hypogeous fungal genus that forms ectomycorrhizae with genera of the Pinaceae. The greatest number and species of Rhizopogon are found in coniferous forests of the Pacific Northwestern United States, where members of the Pinaceae are also concentrated. Rhizopogon spp. are host-specific primarily with Pinus spp. and Pseudotsuga...

Systematics of the genus Ramaria inferred from nuclear large subunit and mitochondrial small subunit ribosomal DNA sequences

Creator:: Humpert, Andrea J.
Abstract:: Ramaria is a genus of epigeous fungi common to the coniferous forests of the Pacific Northwest of North America. The extensively branched basidiocarps and the positive chemical reaction of the context in ferric sulfate are distinguishing characteristics of the genus. The genus is estimated to contain between 200-300 species and...

Characterization of fungal and bacterial communities associated with mat-forming ectomycorrhizal fungi from old-growth stands in the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest

Creator:: Hesse, Cedar N.
Abstract:: Mat-forming ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi represent a prevalent constituent of many temperate forest ecosystems and create dramatic changes in soil structure and chemistry. EcM mat soil have been shown to have increased microbial respiration rates and have been hypothesized to harbor unique assemblages of fungi and bacteria. The objectives of this...
