The primary objective of this research was to determine if native species within the genera Castilleja and Pedicularis are naturally infected by white pine blister rust (Cronartium ribicola) in whitebark pine ecosystems of the Oregon and Washington Cascade Range. Secondary objectives were to monitor the phenology of aecial and telial...
In early 2000, unusual mortality of a native North American tree, golden chinquapin, was reported by the USDA-Forest Service. Dying trees exhibited girdling cankers in the inner bark of the lower bole, branch flagging and defoliation. Isolations from necrotic tissues and soil associated with diseased or killed trees yielded Phytophthora...
A hierarchical series of studies, based mainly on molecular data, was conducted to elucidate the life history of the Douglas-fir Swiss needle cast pathogen Phaeocryptopus gaeumannii at macro- and micro-evolutionary scales. This information was then utilized to design and evaluate molecular diagnostic tools for use in studies on the epidemiology...
The genus Phytophthora contains some of the most destructive pathogens of forest trees, including the most destructive pathogen of alder in recent times, Phytophthora alni. Alder trees were reported to be suffering from canopy dieback in riparian ecosystems in western Oregon, which prompted a survey of alder health and monitoring...
Breeding Port-Orford-cedar for resistance to Phytophthora lateralis, a causal agent of root disease, begins by screening, through artificial inoculation, phenotypically resistant trees selected from natural stands. The successful program selected tolerant or resistant POC parent trees for the purpose of disease management. Candidate resistant POCs were used in my dissertation...
The major consideration of this study was the testing of the
superiority of the whole or part method for developing basic arc welding
skills. Data were also generated which facilitated investigation of:
(1) the relationship of welding skill development to cognitive attainment
of welding information as measured by welding proficiency...
Purpose of the Study The purpose of this investigation was two fold: (1) to determine the effects of a Summer Institute for Cultural Awareness upon the self-actualization of experienced teachers from four separate high schools, and (2) to determine the success of the Summer Institute for Cultural Awareness in terms...
Purpose
The study was designed to test the effectiveness of a counselor
training experience which used pre-recorded client statements as the
instructional medium. The principal objective of instruction was to
teach counselor trainees to differentiate between the affective and
cognitive content of client statements and to respond in ways which...
