Characteristics of Typhlodromus americanus Chant and Yoshida-Shaul (Acari: phytoseiidae) as a biological control agent of Oligonychus ununguis (Jacobi) (Acari: tetranychidae)

Creator:: Horton, Rene N.
Abstract:: The life history, temperature, humidity, and feeding requirements of the phytoseiid predator mite, Typhlodromus americanus Chant and Yoshida-Shaul were tested in the laboratory. Occurance of the mite in the field during different times of the year was investigated as well. Effects of temperature and humidity on egg hatch, the feeding...

Biology and management of a mushroom-infesting sciarid fly (Diptera: Sciaridae) in relation to room-to-room dispersal

Creator:: Mehelis, Christopher N.
Abstract:: The purpose of this research is two fold. First to improve pest management of the sciarid fly (Diptera: Sciaridae) by better defining its relation to mushroom production. Secondly, to explore some of the factors and aspects of the biology of the fly which may increase room to room dispersal rates...

Seasonal abundance, distribution, and migration of the clover aphid, Nearctaphis bakeri (Cowen) in red clover

Creator:: Dreves, Amy J.
Abstract:: Four sampling techniques were evaluated to estimate clover aphid, Nearctaphis bakeri (Cowen), abundance in red clover fields in the Willamette Valley. The Berlese funnel method detected one to four times more aphids than other sampling techniques. Visual assessment often underestimated the high aphid densities during the flowering and seeding of...

Transmission efficiency and life table parameters of western flower thrips, Frankliniella occidentalis (Pergande) exposed to tomato spotted wilt virus-impatiens serotype

Creator:: Sether, Diane M.
Abstract:: Peppermint, Mentha piperita 'Black Mitcham' was established as a host for tomato spotted wilt virus-impatiens serotype (TSWV-I). TSWV-I infection of peppermint, initially observed in a research greenhouse (Corvallis, OR), included stunting and downward curling of leaves accompanied by bronzing, and occasionally tip necrosis. Young leaves appeared either symptomless, deformed, or...

Distribution of Oligonychus (Oligonychus) ununguis (Jacobi) (Acari: Tetranychidae) and predator mite species (Acair: Phytoseiidae) on field-grown Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb] Franco) Christmas trees

Creator:: Calkin, James D.
Abstract:: The shake and wash technique (samples placed in a jar with alcohol added and shaken to remove the mites) was effective in removing 100% of the predator mites, and adult spruce spider mites from Douglas-fir foliage and 98% of the spruce spider mite nymphs. Eighty-eight percent of the spruce spider...

Effects of Tetranychus urticae Koch feeding injury on physiological processes in Mentha piperita L.

Creator:: DeAngelis, Jack D.
Abstract:: Studies were conducted to examine the effects of feeding injury by the twospotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae Koch) on physiological processes of its host plant, peppermint (Mentha piperita L.). Aspects of mite-induced host plant physiological stress that were studied included: 1) effects of injury on plant-water relations; 2) photosynthesis and...

An Investigation of Views of Selected Physicians Regarding the Importance of Corporate Executive Fitness Programs

Creator:: DeAngelis, Lauren Anne
Abstract:: Ninety-two physicians from six different medical specialty areas were participants in an opinion survey concerning corporate executive fitness. The survey was comprised of 21 statements related to such areas as fitness, nutrition, implementation of specific programs and cost effectiveness. Descriptive research methods were utilized to analyze results. Physicians surveyed were...

The effects of nitrogen manipulations and hydrology on the establishment and competitive abilities of wetland prairie plant species (western Oregon)

Creator:: Davis, Kimberly J.
Abstract:: Many studies suggest that weedy plant species are most successful when soil nitrogen in abundant. Consequently, I used soil nitrogen manipulations to determine if altering nitrogen would affect the establishment of both weedy and native plant species in a western Oregon wetland prairie. In two studies, we added carbon amendments...
