Environmental contaminants in male river otters collected from Oregon and Washington, 1994-99, with reproductive organ hypoplasia observed in otter males

Creator:: Grove, Robert Allan
Abstract:: A large number of river otter (Lontra canadensis) males were collected from areas of high and low contaminant concentrations throughout western Oregon and Washington during the fall and winter of 1994-99. Few significant non-reproductive organ morphometric differences were found in the large series of male otters collected, except for adrenal...

Biology of sweet cherry powdery mildew

Creator:: Calabro, Jill M.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest has become one of the nation’s premier sweet cherry, Prunus avium, production areas. As production of sweet cherries has flourished in Oregon and Washington, so has powdery mildew, caused by the fungus Podosphaera clandestina, which infects both foliage and fruit causing severe economic damage to growers. Sweet...

Insights and Patterns from Quantitative and Statistical Analyses of Chemical Systems

Creator:: Grove, Markas Albert
Abstract:: The work presented here is the culmination of efforts in describing complex chemical systems with statistical methods, thereby providing relatively simple quantitative models and easily comprehensible qualitative insights. The following investigations have various goals, such as development of new methods, fundamental understanding, molecular control of chemical species, and advancement of...

Impact of Process Optimization and Composition on Thin Film BNKT Microstructure, Ferroelectric and Piezoelectric Response

Creator:: Grove, Kyle M.
Abstract:: Recent changes in legislation restricting lead content in waste streams produced during electronics manufacturing have inspired a strong push to develop alternative lead-free materials systems for piezoelectric applications. One lead-free piezoelectric material system, (100-X)Bi₀.₅Na₀.₅TiO₃-XBi₀.₅K₀.₅TiO₃ (BNKT), has shown promising properties in bulk research, however, difficulties have arisen in the development of...

Studies towards the total syntheses of (+)-phomactins A, D and G

Creator:: Schwartz, Keith D.
Abstract:: Studies towards the total synthesis of (+)-Phomactin A (1), D (6), and G (9), fungal metabolites with unique molecular architecture and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediates 354 and 356, which contain all of the carbon atoms of 1, 6 and 9....

Balancing Timber Production and Conservation in the Oregon Coast Range: an Examination of the Response by Birds and Bird-induced Ecosystem Services to Forest Management at Multiple Scales

Creator:: Harris, Scott H.
Abstract:: Society derives many critical and irreplaceable values from forests. With a growing global human population and rates of consumption, forests are under increasing pressure to provide all these values simultaneously. To meet societal demands for wood products, tree plantations are becoming increasingly common and are replacing native forests. Yet, forests...

A G-type Lectin Receptor-like Kinase Associated with Septoria Canker Resistance and Susceptibility Described using Multi-omics and Biotechnology

Creator:: Lenz, Ryan R.
Abstract:: Managers of forest and plantation ecosystems are encountering growing problems involving plant pathogens and the expanding geographic ranges of these pathogens. Historically unexposed stands are exceptionally vulnerable when a non-native pathogen is introduced because these pathogens can cause devastating disease in a host population that lacks co-evolved resistance mechanisms. One...

Exploring the biology and monitoring techniques of two economically impactful Chrysobothris species in Oregon hazelnuts

Creator:: Rudolph, Erica
Abstract:: Chrysobothris mali Horn and C. femorata Olivier (Coleoptera : Buprestidae) are two flatheaded wood boring beetle species that have become economically impactful pests in North American high value tree cropping systems. Both species are native to North America, with C. femorata occurring across the continent (Wellso and Manley 2007), whereas...

Spatiotemporal Phytohormone Distributions in Developing Pinot Noir Berries and the Effects of Two Viticulture Practices Thereon

Creator:: Schmidt, Joseph A.
Abstract:: In recent years, many studies have focused on the molecular and biochemical mechanisms regulating the development of wine grapes. The course of grape berry development is directed by genetic design and is mediated by phytohormones, which regulate grape berry growth and development by orchestrating a complex network of interacting genes,...
