Experiments were done to determine pathogenic variability
and pathogenic adaptation of Septoria tritici to different
wheat cultivars. Fifteen S. tritici isolates from
California, Oregon, and Texas were evaluated on seedlings of
two sets of geographically diverse wheat cultivars under
greenhouse conditions. Significant isolate effects, cultivar
effects, and isolate X cultivar...
More than 7 km of long and relatively continuous sediment sequences
from 11 sites in the southeast and equatorial Pacific were recovered
during Leg 202 for the study of the Earth’s climate and biogeochemical
systems on scales that range from tectonic (millions of
years) to orbital (tens to hundreds of...
The purpose of the study was to develop a system and procedure for classifying and cataloguing the textile, costume, and slide collections of the Clothing, Textile, and Related Arts (CTRA) Department at Oregon State University. Investigation was made by letter, personal visit, interview with faculty and curators, and literature research...
This paper presents an application of the wave equation to the
problem of selecting a driving hammer for prestressed concrete piles.
The potentially damaging effects of these types of hammers on various
prestressed concrete piles were analyzed by means of parametric
studies carried out on a hypothetical group of problems...
A cost reduction analysis is performed by coordinating
the exchange of LANDSAT (formerly ERTS) data between a CDC
3300 and a PDP8/L minicomputer. The LANDSAT data is displayed
on a 4002 Tektronix terminal by means of a grayscale output.
Large amounts of data and number manipulation are processed
in the...

The discovery of the methylerythritol phosphate pathway (the MEP pathway) as an alternate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis in some organisms including most bacteria, malarial parasites and plants, but not in animals, has stimulated extensive studies in this area. Research has revealed the potential of finding novel antibacterials, antimalarial drugs, and...
Many climatic factors influence grape berry composition including nutrient status, water availability, biotic stress, sun exposure and temperature. Previous research examined the effects of many factors listed above and much progress has been made. It is often difficult, however, to separate effects that typically confound each other, such as sun...
Headwater streams represent the majority of the drainage area of a river network and provide many critical functions supporting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem health. The riparian zones that surround these streams are transitional areas between terrestrial and stream ecosystems, which provide key habitat for aquatic and terrestrial organisms, especially during...
The sea offers a wide variety of potentially useful resources. Marine algae have been a rich source of structurally unique natural products showing diverse biological properties. The current need to develop new antifungal, antibiotic, anticancer and antiviral drugs has prompted intense research efforts into the discovery, isolation and structure determination...
