Creator:: Mork, Colleen C.
Abstract:: The need to identify a simple but accurate method of stripe rust assessment that best predicts host response prompted this investigation. The study was divided into two plot types, one protected with the fungicide Bayleton and the other unprotected. Ten winter wheat cultivars were used and evaluated. Grain yield, test...

Creator:: Maatougui, Mohamed El Hadi
Abstract:: Response from nitrogen and chloride fertilization was measured in field experiments on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. Em. Thell. var. 'Stephens' and 'Yamhill') grown in western Oregon in an environment with a range of susceptibility to take-all root rot (Gaumannomyces graminis var. tritici Walker). Cropping sequences and expected disease severity...

Creator:: Cooper, Alan S.
Abstract:: Oregon sweet corn growers face high fertilizer, fuel and weed control costs; soil compaction, erosion, organic matter and nutrient depletion; and difficult equipment operations in muddy fields. An alternative production system might ease some of these problems. Testing was begun to evaluate a living-mulch cropping system for sweet corn (Zea...

Creator:: Roush, Mary Lynn
Abstract:: Models of weed communities aid in the development of weed management strategies and elucidate the processes and mechanisms that regulate plant populations and communities. A conceptual weed community model was developed to organize key regulatory life-history processes. Specific investigations focused on the processes of plant growth and competition, and relationships...

Creator:: Turner, J. Kevin
Abstract:: Rapid tiller and root production can improve seedling survival and benefit stand establishment of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in commercial seed fields. Environmental conditions after establishment and inherent morphological factors combine to reduce the commercially harvested yield below the theoretical potential yield. These studies were conducted to determine if...
