This paper was written as a book chapter on the ecology and biology of sage grouse. Because the book was never fully developed, we chose to publish the information with the OSU Agricultural Experiment Station.
The rapid expansion of western juniper into neighboring plant communities during the past 130 years has caused considerable concern because of increased soil erosion, reduced stream
flows; reduced forage production; altered wildlife habitat; changes in plant community composition, structure, and biodiversity; and the replacement of mesic and semi-arid plant communities...
Strawberry seedlings and clones were evaluated in the held for crop
concentration, harvest ease, and ease of capping. Laboratory post-harvest
studies were made of quality retention in these seedlings and clones.
Progress has been made in all these categories toward machine harvest.
Inheritance patterns for crop concentration show that early-season...
"Crested wheatgrass, beardless wheatgrass, and big bluegrass were
seeded as overstory grasses. Streambank wheatgrass, canby bluegrass,
bulbous bluegrass, and Ladak alfalfa were seeded as companion species.
Pure and mixed stands were seeded on sagebrush-bunchgrass
range in eastern Oregon to compare yield and competitiveness. The
grasses were planted in 1956, 1957,...

A multitude of biotic and physical factors, many of them unique to riparian environments, interacted to form an extremely complex ecosystem along Catherine Creek in the Wallowa Mountains. A total of 258 stands of vegetation representing 60 communities was identified. At least 20 species of mammals and 81 species of...
