The discovery of novel compounds with antibacterial properties continues to be critically important.3 One potential source of such compounds is the cryptic genome of fungi known to produce biologically active molecules. A kmt6 mutant of the cereal pathogen Fusarium graminearum was previously developed through a histone H3 lysine 27 methyltransferase...
The Canada goose (Branta canadensis) monogastric gut is proposed to contain aerobic spore-forming bacteria that produce non-toxin substances that may promote anti-inflammatory immune responses. It is hypothesized that the aerobic bacteria found in samples of Canada goose microflora could have probiotic effects in other avian species or used for commercial...
Processes that influence habitat selection in landscapes involve the interaction of habitat composition and configuration
and are particularly important for species with complex life cycles. We assessed the relative influence of landscape spatial
processes and local habitat characteristics on patterns in the distribution and abundance of spawning steelhead
(Oncorhynchus mykiss),...

Linked atmospheric and wildfire changes will complicate future management of native coldwater fishes in fire-prone
landscapes, and new approaches to management that incorporate uncertainty are needed to address this challenge. We used a
Bayesian network (BN) approach to evaluate population vulnerability of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in the Wenatchee River...

As wolves return to their historic habitats both in Oregon and across the globe, emotions are running high between people either gladdened or disturbed by their homecoming. Prior to colonization, wolves occupied the entire Pacific Northwest alongside Indigenous peoples. However, European settlements that ultimately coalesced to form the state of...
Rates of benthic O₂ exchange are important measurements for determining organic matter remineralization, and can shed light on factors driving biogeochemical processes in coastal environments. Measurement of in situ O₂ consumption and production within permeable sediments, such as those found over ~43% of the Oregon-Washington shelf, has traditionally been done...
