Genetic variation in phenology of bud and cambial activity in coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)

Creator:: Li, Peng, 1961-
Abstract:: Growth phenology (i.e., timing of growth initiation and cessation) is important to adaptation. This study examined the extent of genetic control of bud and cambial phenology and their relationships with stem growth in pole-size Douglas-fir (ages 13 to 16 years) from 60 open-pollinated families. The availability of bud phenology data...

Examining bias in estimating the response variable and assessing the effect of using alternative plot designs to measure predictor variables in diameter growth modeling

Creator:: Zumrawi, Abdel Azim M. A.
Abstract:: Diameter growth of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuqa menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) estimated from increment cores was compared with that obtained from repeated measurements of tree diameter on permanent plots located in two Douglas-fir study areas in the central Coast Range of Oregon. Growth was measured for a 6-year period (1979- 1985). Diameter growth...

Distribution and growth of advance Douglas-fir regeneration in commercially thinned stands in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Beer, Louis W.
Abstract:: This study examined the abundance, size, growth, and age of advance regeneration Douglas-fir, beneath an eighty year-old overstory at a single site on plots subjected to different overstory thinning treatments. Treatments consisted of keeping overstory basal area within upper and lower limits for periods of 12-17 years which, depending upon...

Factors influencing growth of young Douglas-fir and red alder in the Oregon Coast Range : interference, nitrogen availability, and animal damage

Creator:: Fuentes-Rodríquez, Laura Angélica
Abstract:: Red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) is a common associate and a potentially severe competitor of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii [Mirb.] Franco) in the Oregon Coast Range. However, because it fixes nitrogen and increases rates of soil nutrient cycling, red alder has the potential to benefit Douglas-fir. The objective of...

The effects of single and multiple pathogen and parasite infections on juvenile chinook and coho salmon during early marine residency

Creator:: Sandell, Todd A.
Abstract:: Nearly 3000 juvenile Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho (O. kisutch) salmon captured in nearshore waters off the coasts of Washington and Oregon from 1999-2004 were tested for infection by Renibacterium salmoninarum, Nanophyetus salmincola, and skin metacercariae. First, three quantitative PCR primer/probe sets were compared for detection of R. salmoninarum; amplification...

Database development and application to characterize juvenile Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb] and understory vegetation in the Oregon and Washington Coast Range Mountains

Creator:: Shula, Robert G.
Abstract:: The Regional Vegetation Management Model (RVMM) predicts the effects of associated vegetation on the growth and yield of young Douglas-fir (age [less than or equal to] 20 years) in the Pacific Northwest, and is a 'front-end' growth model for existing rotation-age growth models. Objectives of this thesis are to: (a)...

Alterations in Douglas-fir crown structure, morphology, and dynamics imposed by the Swiss needle cast disease in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Weiskittel, Aaron R.
Abstract:: Plants respond to defoliation in many different and complex ways, depending on their growth habit and form as well as the extent and duration of the defoliation. Tree crowns have been shown to be quite sensitive to disturbances such as defoliation, however quantitative relationships have rarely been developed, making the...

The clonal development of vine maple during Douglas-fir stand development in the Coast Range of Oregon

Creator:: O'Dea, Mary E.
Abstract:: Natural Douglas-fir stand development is the result of many types of disturbance, both natural and management induced. The magnitude and timing of these disturbances have profound effects on the structure and composition of both the overstory and understory plant communities. Vine maple responds to disturbance by basal sprouting, layering, producing...
