Creator:: Kanda, Kojun
Abstract:: In this dissertation, I present the results from three studies: (1) a phylogeny of Tenebrionoidea (Coleoptera) inferred from a seven-gene dataset derived from PCR and Sanger sequencing; (2) a phylogeny of Tenebrionidae, the largest family in Tenebrionoidea, inferred from a four-gene dataset also derived from PCR and Sanger sequencing; (3)...

Creator:: Kepler, Ryan M.
Abstract:: Historical concepts of Clavicipitaceae have included a broad range of species that display diverse morphologies, ecological modes and host associations. When subjected to multigene phylogenetic investigation of evolutionary history, the family was found to be polyphyletic, largely driven by diversity in the genus Cordyceps, previously containing over 400 taxa. The...

Creator:: Syring, John V.
Abstract:: Data from nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer regions (nrITS) and chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) have failed to resolve phylogenetic relationships in Pinus. To provide greater interspecific resolution, five low-copy nuclear genes were developed from mapped conifer anchor loci. Four genes were sequenced from species representing all Pinus subsections. Individual loci do...

Creator:: Whitbeck, Kristen L.
Abstract:: Gymnomyces is an ectomycorrhizal basidiomycete genus in the family Russulaceae estimated to contain less than 50 species worldwide, with 23 species known to occur in the Pacific Northwest. Gymnomyces species are common in Pacific Northwest forests that include Pseudotsuga, Abies, Tsuga, and Quercus. They produce sequestrate (truffle-like) sporocarps with ornamented...

Creator:: Wagman, David Wolfe
Abstract:: Low copy number anonymous nuclear loci were used to search for species markers in four species of Klamath Basin suckers. We sequenced 28 randomly chosen loci representing 10,421 bp; 21 loci were similar to sequences in GenBank. Eight fixed sequence differences were found among Klamath species. Locus 120 contained rare...

Creator:: Shin, Eun Jung
Abstract:: A new high-throughput culturing (HTC) method using a low nutrient heterotrophic medium (LNHM) has led to the isolation of many novel strains of oligotrophic bacteria from marine ecosystems. Four strains belonging to a single dade, HTCC2151, HTCC218OT, HTCC2178T and HTCC2188T, were isolated from the coast of Oregon by the HTC...
