Genetic dissection of Victoria blight disease susceptibility in Arabidopsis thaliana

Creator:: Sweat, Teresa A.
Abstract:: The fungus Cochliobolus victoriae causes Victoria blight of oats and Arabidopsis and is pathogenic due to its production of a compound called victorin, which induces programmed cell death in sensitive plants. Victorin sensitivity in Arabidopsis is conferred by the dominant gene LOCUS ORCHESTRATING VICTORIN EFFECTS1 (LOV1), which encodes a coiled-coil-nucleotide...

Physiology of senescence of the shoot apex in Pisum sativum L.

Creator:: Ecklund, Paul Richard, 1941-
Abstract:: Shoot apex senescence is defined as the collective progressive and deteriorative processes which ultimately terminate the functional life of the shoot apex. Senescence of shoot apices of Pisum sativum L. 'Alaska' as measured by cessation of stem elongation was delayed by removal of flowers and by treatment with gibberellin A₃...

Patterns of tree establishment and vegetation composition in relation to climate and topography of a subalpine meadow landscape, Jefferson Park, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Zald, Harold S. J.
Abstract:: The forest alpine tundra ecotone (FTE, also known as alpine treeline or subalpine parkland), is a conspicuous feature of mountain landscapes throughout the world. Climate change-driven increases in temperature are believed to result in FTE movement and tree invasion of subalpine meadows, which have been documented throughout the Northern Hemisphere...

Universal computing systems. Part 1, Simulation of any Normal Algorithm by Turing machine. Part 2, A universal Turing machine to translate any Turing machine to a Normal Algorithm

Creator:: Nelson, Thomas Clayton
Abstract:: In this paper a direct, constructive proof of the equivalence of the Normal Algorithm and Turing machine using the Turing machines NAS (Normal Algorithm Simulator) and NAC (Normal Algorithm Converter) is presented. The Turing machine NAS can simulate any particular Normal Algorithm, and NAG can convert the quintuples of a...

The ecology of Chironomidae associated with stabilization lagoons

Creator:: Sturgess, Brian Thomas
Abstract:: Chironomidae occurring in stabilization lagoons were studied from 1964 to 1966 in Oregon. Observations of other insects and their impact on the lagoon environment are included. Quantitative data were obtained from two lagoons near Corvallis and qualitative observations from preliminary work on two other lagoons are reported. The objectives of...

Investigation of hop downy mildew through association mapping and observations of the oospore

Creator:: Parker, Thomas B.
Abstract:: Hop downy mildew is a devastating disease affecting hop requiring expensive fungicide applications throughout the growing season. Plant resistance is highly desirable and theorized as being decidedly quantitative with dominance and epistasis involved in resistance. An association mapping approach using a mixed-model was used to identify AFLP markers associated with...

Incorporating the Impacts of Climate Variability on Growth in Fish Population Dynamics Models

Creator:: Moron Correa, Giancarlo Helar
Abstract:: Variations in ocean conditions influenced by climate fluctuations may impact fish populations by changing their spatial distribution, physiology, survival, and other ecological features. Somatic growth is a crucial aspect of the biology of fishes and an important contributor to biomass fluctuations. Climate variability also affects somatic growth rates along the...

Genome-enabled discovery and characterization of type III effector-encoding genes of plant symbiotic bacteria

Creator:: Kimbrel, Jeffrey A.
Abstract:: Symbiosis is the close and protracted interaction between organisms. The molecular interactions that occur during symbiosis are complex with multiple barriers that must be overcome. Many Gram-negative, host-associated bacteria use a type III secretion system to mediate associations with their eukaryotic hosts. This secretion system is a specialized apparatus for...

Advanced studies on cyclic amino acids in neurological signaling and peptide antibiotics

Creator:: Blanchard, David, L.
Abstract:: L-pipecolic acid (L-PA) is the higher homolog of proline. It occurs naturally in many organisms, including primates, as an intermediate in lysine degradation. The pathway by which lysine is converted into L-pipecolic acid employs the enzyme Lpipecolate oxidase (L-PO), and appears to be tissue specific to the central nervous system...
