Impacts of Swiss needle cast on Douglas-fir tree-ring stable isotopes and tree carbohydrate reserves

Creator:

Saffell, Brandy J.

Abstract:

Understanding the mechanisms of disease in forest pathology is a critical component to learning how to most efficiently manage tree diseases like Swiss needle cast (SNC). SNC is an economically important, fungal disease of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) that is prevalent in coastal areas of the Pacific Northwest. This...

Isotopes and Tree Carbohydrate Reserves AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Brandy J. Saffell for the
Influence of photosynthesis and carbohydrates on adventitious root formation by leafy cuttings

Creator:

Davis, Tim D.

Abstract:

Many investigators have suggested that current photosynthate supply can limit adventitious root formation on leafy cuttings. Accordingly, studies were undertaken to determine the effects of altering photosynthesis and carbohydrate levels on adventitious root formation by leafy cuttings of a number of different species. Pea cuttings rooted at high CO₂ (1800...
