Effects of vegetation and disturbance on fungal communities in the western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Kageyama, Stacie Ann, 1967-
Abstract:: The use of high throughput molecular methods that allow for the study of bacterial communities in environmental samples is commonplace in microbial ecology. Until recently, fungal community ecology has focused on isolation, collection of sporocarps, or collection of ectomycorrhizal roots. The techniques used to extract and amplify DNA from environmental...

Biosynthetic studies of fungal diterpene antibiotics

Creator:: Yao, Qingmei
Abstract:: The isoprenoid pathway is one of the major biosynthetic pathways of secondary metabolites. Isoprenoids with a C₂₀ skeleton are known as diterpenoids and are derived from the common precursor, geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP). This dissertation describes approaches to discover the diterpene synthase enzymes which provide the backbone structures for pleuromutilin and...

Copper tolerance in four fungal species

Creator:: Grable, Carl Ivan
Abstract:: This study was initiated to determine the tolerance to copper of Aspergillus niger, Stemphylium sarcinaeforme, Monilinia fructicola and Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici. Included were strains of the latter two fungi that were induced to tolerate relatively high levels of copper by continual culture on sublethal levels of the toxicant....

Fungal colonization of Douglas-fir sapwood

Creator:: Kang, Sung-Mo
Abstract:: The fungi that cause mold and stain of freshly sawn lumber result in millions of dollars in losses to the forest products industry. Stain and mold are typically prevented by either kiln drying or by application of a topical fungicide. While these treatments are effective, kiln drying is costly and...

Spalting Fungi : Genetic Identification, Material Interactions and Microscopical Characteristics of Extracted Pigments

Creator:: Vega Gutiérrez, Sarath Mercedes
Abstract:: Spalting fungi show strong potential as natural colorants on a variety of materials, specifically textiles and wood. Four species of spalting fungi are currently utilized in this manner: Scytalidium cuboideum, which produces a red pigment called draconin red, Scytalidium ganodermophthorum, that produces an unknown yellow pigment, and Chlorociboria aeruginosa and...

A determination and selection of a biology course content of significance for a freshman level general education course

Creator:: Hankins, Lela Ruth
Abstract:: The purposes of this investigation were twofold: 1. To determine important criteria for making a selection of course content in general biology. 2. To ascertain what should be the content emphasis in biology for the purposes of general education at the freshman college level. The literature pertinent to the problem...

Toxicity of Fungal Pigments from Chlorociboria spp. and Scytalidium spp.

Creator:: Almurshidi, Badria H.
Abstract:: Commercial methodologies for producing fungal pigments are of worldwide interest due to the desire to move away from synthetic dyes. Chlorociboria species and Scytalidium species have been reported to produce sufficient yields of pigments for commercial production and have attracted special attention because of their use in spalted wood applications....

Fungal diversity within decomposing woody conifer roots in Oregon

Creator:: Vandegrift, V. Eleanor
Abstract:: Previous studies have indicated that roots from five tree species (Picea sitchensis, Tsuga heterophylla, Pseudotsuga menziesii, Pinus ponderosa, and Pinus contorta) decompose at different rates across an environmental gradient in Oregon. Measurements of wood chemistry from each tree species as well as moisture and temperature from each location do not...
