Circumpolar Diversity and Geographic Differentiation of mtDNA in the Critically Endangered Antarctic Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia)

Creator:: Sremba, Angela L., Hancock-Hanser, Brittany, Branch, Trevor A., LeDuc, Rick L., and Baker, C. Scott
Abstract:: The Antarctic blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus intermedia) was hunted to near extinction between 1904 and 1972, declining from an estimated initial abundance of more than 250,000 to fewer than 400. Here, we describe mtDNA control region diversity and geographic differentiation in the surviving population of the Antarctic blue whale, using...

Coibamide A Induces mTOR-Independent Autophagy and Cell Death in Human Glioblastoma Cells

Creator:: Hau, Andrew M., Greenwood, Jeffrey A., Lohr, Christiane V., Serrill, Jeffrey D., Proteau, Philip J., Ganley, Ian G., McPhail, Kerry L., and Ishmael, Jane E.
Abstract:: Coibamide A is an N-methyl-stabilized depsipeptide that was isolated from a marine cyanobacterium as part of an International Cooperative Biodiversity Groups (ICBG) program based in Panama. Previous testing of coibamide A in the NCI in vitro 60 cancer cell line panel revealed a potent anti-proliferative response and "COMPARE-negative" profile indicative...

Next Steps for Building a Flexible and Robust Digital Preservation Infrastructure at Oregon State University Libraries & Press

Creator:: Boock, Michael and Davis, Brian E.
Abstract:: Oregon State University Libraries and Press (OSULP) has a long history of digitizing, creating, and curating digital objects. These objects include digital representations of unique items from the Special Collections and Archives Research Center (SCARC) such as the photographs, maps, manuscripts, audio, and video housed in Oregon Digital.

Non-Invasive Sampling of Schistosomes from Humans Requires Correcting for Family Structure

Creator:: Steinauer, Michelle L., Christie, Mark R., Blouin, Michael S., Agola, Lelo E., Mwangi, Ibrahim N., Maina, Geoffrey M., Mutuku, Martin W., Kinuthia, Joseph M., Mkoji, Gerald M., and Loker, Eric S.
Abstract:: For ethical and logistical reasons, population-genetic studies of parasites often rely on the non-invasive sampling of offspring shed from their definitive hosts. However, if the sampled offspring are naturally derived from a small number of parents, then the strong family structure can result in biased population-level estimates of genetic parameters,...

The plant phenology monitoring design for The National Ecological Observatory Network

Creator:: Elmendorf, Sarah C., Jones, Katherine D., Cook, Benjamin I., Diez, Jeffrey M., Enquist, Carolyn A. F., Hufft, Rebecca A., Jones, Matthew O., Mazer, Susan J., Miller-Rushing, Abraham J., Moore, David J. P., Schwartz, Mark D., and Weltzin, Jake F.
Abstract:: Phenology is an integrative science that comprises the study of recurring biological activities or events. In an era of rapidly changing climate, the relationship between the timing of those events and environmental cues such as temperature, snowmelt, water availability, or day length are of particular interest. This article provides an...

Macroalgae Decrease Growth and Alter Microbial Community Structure of the Reef-Building Coral, Porites astreoides

Creator:: Thurber, Rebecca Vega, Burkepile, Deron E., Correa, Adrienne M. S., Thurber, Andrew R., Shantz, Andrew A., Welsh, Rory, Pritchard, Catharine, and Rosales, Stephanie
Abstract:: With the continued and unprecedented decline of coral reefs worldwide, evaluating the factors that contribute to coral demise is of critical importance. As coral cover declines, macroalgae are becoming more common on tropical reefs. Interactions between these macroalgae and corals may alter the coral microbiome, which is thought to play...

Factors affecting female space use in ten populations of prairie chickens

Creator:: Winder, Virginia L., Carrlson, Kaylan M., Gregory, Andrew J., Hagen, Christian A., Haukos, David A., Kesler, Dylan C., Larsson, Lena C., Matthews, Ty W., McNew, Lance B., Patten, Michael A., Pitman, Jim C., Powell, Larkin A., Smith, Jennifer A., Thompson, Tom, Wolfe, Donald H., and Sandercock, Brett K.
Abstract:: Conservation of wildlife depends on an understanding of the interactions between animal movements and key landscape factors. Habitat requirements of wide-ranging species often vary spatially, but quantitative assessment of variation among replicated studies at multiple sites is rare. We investigated patterns of space use for 10 populations of two closely...

Viewing forests through the lens of complex systems science

Creator:: Filotas, Elise, Parrott, Lael, Burton, Philip J., Chazdon, Robin L., Coates, K. David, Coll, Lluis, Haeussler, Sybille, Martin, Kathy, Nocentini, Susanna, Puettmann, Klaus J., Putz, Francis E., Simard, Suzanne W., and Messier, Christian
Abstract:: Complex systems science provides a transdisciplinary framework to study systems characterized by (1) heterogeneity, (2) hierarchy, (3) self‐organization, (4) openness, (5) adaptation, (6) memory, (7) non‐linearity, and (8) uncertainty. Complex systems thinking has inspired both theory and applied strategies for improving ecosystem resilience and adaptability, but applications in forest ecology...

A bioenergetics model to evaluate demographic consequences of disturbance in marine mammals applied to gray whales

Creator:: Villegas-Amtmann, S., Schwarz, L. K., Sumich, J. L., and Costa, D. P.
Abstract:: While sophisticated tools are used to monitor behavioral changes of large marine vertebrates, determining whether these changes are meaningful for management and conservation is challenging. The Population Consequences of Disturbance model proposed a bioenergetics model to detect biologically meaningful population responses, where disturbance costs are linked to lost energy. The...

Post-fire tree establishment and early cohort development in conifer forests of the western Cascades of Oregon, USA

Creator:: Tepley, Alan J., Swanson, Frederick J., and Spies, Thomas A.
Abstract:: Early‐seral ecosystems make important contributions to regional biodiversity by supporting high abundance and diversity of many plant and animal species that are otherwise rare or absent from closed‐canopy forests. Therefore, the period of post‐fire tree establishment is a key stage in forest stand and ecosystem development that can be viewed...
