Abstract:: Studies were conducted to determine the nature of the interaction between atrazine (2-chloro-4-ethylamino-6-isopropylaminos- triazine) and magnesium on tomatoes. This interaction was studied under two light regimes: continuous light and a 12-hour photoperiod. Tomato plants were grown in sand cultures at three levels of magnesium fertilization. Four weeks after planting, atrazine...

Creator:: Thomas, Johnny Ray
Abstract:: Estimates of heritability and associations of tiller number, seed number, seed weight, and seed yield were determined in two groups of tall fescue. Group E was early maturing and had eight parental clones, while group I was intermediate in maturity and had nine parental clones. The parents and five progeny...

Abstract:: Seven winter wheats were evaluated for plant height, the components of yield and yield in a diallel cross at Pendleton, Oregon and Lind, Washington. An additional parent was added to the diallel cross at Pullman, Washington. Two levels of nitrogen and five replications were utilized at each of the locations....
