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...

Creator:: Gangi, Ali Salih
Abstract:: To increase efficiency of seed production, it is important to understand the effects of nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate and time of application. In particular, the effects on floret fertility should be examined since only a small proportion of florets actually produce harvestable seed. For these reasons, experiments were conducted in...

Creator:: Young, William C. (William Clyde)
Abstract:: Seed yield in perennial ryegrass is the product of yield components that develop during the life of the plant. Crop yield potential is defined by the number of fertile tillers, spikelets per spike, and florets per spikelet. It has been shown that perennial ryegrass realizes only a small percentage of...

Creator:: Hunter, James L.
Abstract:: Seed yield in ryegrass (Lolium spp.) is the product of the number of fertile tillers per unit area and seed weight per spike at maturity. These components of yield develop through a series of growth stages beginning with tiller bud initiation and finishing with seed filling. Environmental conditions during plant...

Creator:: Nounamo, Laurent
Abstract:: Increases in wheat production due to breeding may be reaching a plateau. The application of N-fertilizer beyond optimum levels leads to lodging and to an increase in tiller death. The use of plant growth regulators (retardants) may be an answer for future increases in production. Experiments were conducted in 1983...

Abstract:: Parental lines, Fi's and segregating populations (F₂, F₃ and BC's) including reciprocals were evaluated under field conditions to determine if genetic resistance per se exists for Septoria Leaf Blotch in a selected winter wheat cross. The experiment was conducted over a three year period with both natural infection and artificial...

Creator:: Re, Jose Vicente
Abstract:: Influence of abiotic and biotic factors were examined in selected winter wheats previously identified as representing a range of responses to septoria infection. In the greenhouse two and three inoculations identified resistance when disease severity was assessed either for the top four leaves or the flag leaf respectively. Kernel number...
