AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Christina St John for the degree of Master of Science in Sustainable Forest Management presented on October 29, 2018. Title: Addressing Seedling Production Challenges for Hispaniolan Pine and Snowberry Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Anthony S. Davis The use of native plants in restoration and afforestation has increased worldwide as their benefits to habitat quality, ecosystem services and local community well-being become widely known. In many restoration and afforestation sites, the most cost-effective and efficient way to establish plants is to use seedlings. Unfortunately, there is a lack of propagation knowledge on how to germinate and grow high- quality seedlings for many native plant species, limiting their production in nurseries and their use in restoration and afforestation. The objectives for this research were to develop protocols for producing two native species important to restoration and afforestation, Hispaniolan pine (Pinus occidentalis) and snowberry (Symphoricarpos albus). Chapter 2 describes a two-part study to develop protocols to germinate and reduce seedborne fungi on P. occidentalis. It was found that the germination of P. occidentalis was unaffected by seed moisture content or cold stratification length and a 1-hour soak in hydrogen peroxide followed by a 1-hour rinse in running water was effective at reducing seedborne fungi without negatively effecting germination. Chapter 3 describes a study on the effect of nursery irrigation on the survival, morphology and physiology of P. occidentalis that experienced various levels of drought. Hispaniolan pine seedlings were subjected to moderate or severe drought preconditioning or were well watered (no preconditioning), then seedlings experienced no drought, moderate drought and severe drought after a simulated planting. Moderate drought preconditioning produced seedlings with higher rates of survival on droughty sites without a decrease in seedling growth when compared to seedlings with no preconditioning or severe drought preconditioning. Chapter 4 describes a study that investigated S. albus seed coat permeability to water and the effect of seed moisture content on stratification requirements needed to break dormancy. Symphoricarpos albus has a water-permeable seed coat. The stratification treatments performed were ineffective at breaking seed dormancy and recommendations for future study are presented. These results will contribute to a growing body of knowledge on how to propagate high-quality seedlings using low-cost and nontechnical methods available to nurseries throughout the world. ©Copyright by Christina St John October 29, 2018 All Rights Reserved Addressing Seedling Production Challenges for Hispaniolan Pine and Snowberry by Christina St John A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Presented October 29, 2018 Commencement June 2019 Master of Science thesis of Christina St John presented on October 29, 2018 APPROVED: Major Professor, representing Sustainable Forest Management Head of the Department of Forest Engineering, Resources and Management Dean of the Graduate School I understand that my thesis will become part of the permanent collection of Oregon State University libraries.

    Phylogeny and Phylogenetic Taxonomy of Dipsacales, with Special Reference to Sinadoxa and Tetradoxa (Adoxaceae)

    PHYLOGENY AND PHYLOGENETIC TAXONOMY OF DIPSACALES, WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO SINADOXA AND TETRADOXA (ADOXACEAE) MICHAEL J. DONOGHUE,1 TORSTEN ERIKSSON,2 PATRICK A. REEVES,3 AND RICHARD G. OLMSTEAD 3 Abstract. To further clarify phylogenetic relationships within Dipsacales,we analyzed new and previously pub- lished rbcL sequences, alone and in combination with morphological data. We also examined relationships within Adoxaceae using rbcL and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences. We conclude from these analyses that Dipsacales comprise two major lineages:Adoxaceae and Caprifoliaceae (sensu Judd et al.,1994), which both contain elements of traditional Caprifoliaceae.Within Adoxaceae, the following relation- ships are strongly supported: (Viburnum (Sambucus (Sinadoxa (Tetradoxa, Adoxa)))). Combined analyses of C ap ri foliaceae yield the fo l l ow i n g : ( C ap ri folieae (Diervilleae (Linnaeeae (Morinaceae (Dipsacaceae (Triplostegia,Valerianaceae)))))). On the basis of these results we provide phylogenetic definitions for the names of several major clades. Within Adoxaceae, Adoxina refers to the clade including Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa, and Adoxa.This lineage is marked by herbaceous habit, reduction in the number of perianth parts,nectaries of mul- ticellular hairs on the perianth,and bifid stamens. The clade including Morinaceae,Valerianaceae, Triplostegia, and Dipsacaceae is here named Valerina. Probable synapomorphies include herbaceousness,presence of an epi- calyx (lost or modified in Valerianaceae), reduced endosperm,and distinctive chemistry, including production of monoterpenoids. The clade containing Valerina plus Linnaeeae we name Linnina. This lineage is distinguished by reduction to four (or fewer) stamens, by abortion of two of the three carpels,and possibly by supernumerary inflorescences bracts. Keywords: Adoxaceae, Caprifoliaceae, Dipsacales, ITS, morphological characters, phylogeny, phylogenetic taxonomy, phylogenetic nomenclature, rbcL, Sinadoxa, Tetradoxa.

Squilchuck State Park is a 263 acre park on the east slope of the Cascade Mountains in Central Washington, located largely in the transition zone between shrub-steppe and montane forest. Plant community polygons were delineated prior to the initiation of field surveys using or- thophotos and satellite imagery. These polygons were then ground checked during the vegetation surveys, which were conducted simultaneously with the rare plant inventories. All plant associa- tions were determined using theField Guide for Forested Plant Associations of the Wenatchee National Forest(Lilybridge et al, 1995) The Douglas-fir dominated forest above the lodge, on the eastern slopes of the park. The forest on this east slope is in places heavily overstocked and the trees supressed. Vegetation surveys and plant inventories were conducted by two field personnel (one bota- nist, one GIS technician) on June 11th, and again by 4 field workers on August 13 (two botanists and two GIS technicians).

Kholodny Institute of Botany, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Tereschenkivska str. 2, 01004 Kyiv, Ukraine; [email protected] Received: 02.10.2020 | Accepted: 12.12.2020 | Published: 30.12.2020 Abstract With the help of light and scanning electron microscopy, the features of inflorescences and flowers of six species of the genus Symphoricarpos introduced to Ukraine were studied, and the peculiarities of their structure were specified. Morphological peculiarities of the calyx, corolla, stamens, and style, differentiating S. albus (including S. racemosus and S. rivularis), S. hesperius, S. mollis, S. occidentalis, S. orbiculatus, and S. oreophilus var. utahensis, were determined. The obtained data are important for identification of the species and taxonomy of the genus Symphoricarpos. In particular, the results of our study showed that flowers of S. racemosus, S. rivularis, and S. albus share common features and this supports their synonymy under the name S. albus. Other five Symphoricarpos species showed differences in their floral morphology. Among the important features for identification of Symphoricarpos species introduced to Ukraine, which were not mentioned in available literature sources we can list: the number of flowers in the inflorescence, features of pedicels, shape and features of bracts pubescence, shape of calyx teeth and their pubescence, presence or absence of corolla tube convexity, presence of ovoid projection of anther’s connective, and size of all the floral elements.

    Landscaping with Native Plants in Snoqualmie

    LANDSCAPING WITH NATIVE PLANTS LANDSCAPING WITH NATIVE PLANTS Washington state is home to thousands of plants, many of which can beautify your yard while providing numerous benefits to wildlife, humans, and ecosystems. Sword fern — Polystichum munitum Nootka rose — Rosa nutkana Western trillium — Trillium ovatum Native plants are great for a home gardener because they are adapted to our region’s wet winters and dry summers. This means that, once established, they are easier to manage and require less water. They are also more pest and disease resistant. Gardens with native plants are great for local forests. They provide habitat and foraging opportunities for birds, pollinators, and other wildlife, increasing and improving habitat corridors. Native plants control erosion and reduce pollution and runoff, benefiting both people and wildlife. Some nursery plants, though beautiful, can escape backyard gardens and become invasive weeds in forests. Invasive plants diminish habitats and ecosystems and are a constant battle for land managers. When you garden with native plants, you eliminate this risk of nonnative plants naturalizing in our local forests.
