Early Selection for Improving Volume Growth in Coastal Douglas-fir Breeding Programs

Creator:: Ye, T. Z. and Jayawickrama, K. J. S.
Abstract:: Measurements on growth traits up to 41 years of age from 68 progeny sites in eight first-generation breeding zones of coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [MIRB.] FRANCO var. menziesii) in the US Pacific Northwest were used to investigate age trends of genetic parameters and to determine optimum age of selection. Heritabilities...

Habitat Selection by Greater Sage-Grouse During Winter in Southeastern Oregon

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A., Willis, Mitchell J., Glenn, Elizabeth M., and Anthony, Robert G.
Abstract:: The distribution and geographic range of Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) have been reduced by 56% since European settlement. Although loss and fragmentation of sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) habitats have been cited as the primary causes for the decline of the species, degradation of existing habitat also has been considered an important...

Microhabitat selection of brood-rearing sites by greater sage-grouse in Carbon County, Wyoming

Creator:: Schreiber, Leslie A.
Abstract:: Declines in Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus, hereafter sage-grouse) populations could be attributed to low chick survival, which may be influenced by the availability of food and cover at sites used by females rearing broods. Habitat attributes important to broods may vary regionally; thus, it is necessary to understand factors affecting...

Frequency of daily tooth brushing: predictors of change in 9- to 11-year old US children

Creator:: Polk, D. E., Geng, M., Levy, S., Koerber, A., and Flay, B. R.
Abstract:: OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether an increase in daily tooth brushing frequency in children was predicted by either a) having a strong intention to brush twice a day or b) their parents receiving information about their new caries experience. BASIC RESEARCH DESIGN: Secondary data analyses were conducted on two waves of...

Pulmonary arteriovenous malformation in two adult alpacas (Vicugna pacos)

Creator:: Piripi, Susan, Hustace, Jaime, Carney, Katelyn R., Heidel, Jerry R., and Lohr, Christiane V.
Abstract:: Two cases of pulmonary vascular anomaly in unrelated adult alpacas (Vicugna pacos) are described. In the first case, a 9-year-old intact male alpaca presented at Oregon State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital with bilateral epistaxis and died the subsequent day following severe hemorrhage from the mouth and nostrils. At necropsy, a...

Coriolis analysis of several high-resolution infrared bands of bicyclo[111]pentane-d₀ and -d₁

Creator:: Perry, A., Martin, M. A., Nibler, J. W., Maki, A., Weber, A., and Blake, T. A.
Abstract:: High-resolution infrared absorption spectra have been analyzed for two bicyclo[111]pentane isotopologues, C₅H₈ (-d₀) and C₅H₇D (-d₁), where in the latter the D-atom replaces a hydrogen on the C₃ symmetry axis such that the molecular symmetry is reduced from D₃ₕ to C₃ᵥ. Two (a"₂) parallel bands, v₁₇ and v₁₈, of bicyclopentane-d₀...

Predation on the western honey bee, Apis mellifera L., by the hornet, Vespa tropica (L.)

Creator:: Burgett, D. Michael and Akratanakul, Pongthep
Abstract:: Hornets of the genus Vespa are recognized as efficient and devastating predators of honey bees, especially in tropical and subtropical biomes. Of the four species of honey bees in the genus Apis only A. dorsata Fabr., the giant honey bee, appears free from attack by hornets (Seeley et al. 1982)....
