As entrepreneurship research has matured, scholars have increasingly recognized that the formation of new ventures is commonly accomplished by teams as opposed to lone entrepreneurs. Over the past two decades, the upper echelons perspective has served as the primary lens for investigating new venture team functioning and performance. However, researchers...
A study, consisting of two sequential greenhouse experiments, was
designed to determine the effects of soil liming upon the fungal
partner in a mycorrhizal association. A Willamette Valley foothill
soil, of the Jory series, was limed in increments to achieve a range
of acidity and alkalinity. The P-deficiency and P-fixing...
I examined ecological relationships and mechanisms of coexistence for sympatric populations of Columbian white-tailed (Odocoileus virginianus leucurus) and black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) in Douglas County, Oregon, from September 1997 to August 1998. Horseback transects were used to describe spatial distributions, population overlap, and habitat use for both species. Behavioral...
Douglas-fir seedlings were inoculated with different species of
ectomycorrhizae-forming fungi in order to test the concept that
ectomycorrhizae enhance the drought tolerance of seedlings and to
investigate the mechanisms responsible for this effect.
Seedlings were transplanted at age 6 to 8 weeks into pots
containing pasteurized loam soil and inoculated...
The behavior of six herbicides in soil was studied under controlled laboratory conditions. Sorption of bromacil, chiorotoluron and diuron was assessed by the batch equilibration procedure over a broad range of aqueous phase sorbate concentration. Linear equilibrium sorption constants (K[subscript p]) were slightly higher at 4° C than at 25°...
