Creator:: Creasy, Glen L.
Abstract:: Several effects of xylem discontinuity in Pinot noir and Merlot grape berries were studied. There was a reduction in the amount of apoplastic dye (Eosin Y or azosulfamide) uptake through cut pedicels into soft versus firm berries, suggesting a reduction in maximal xylem flow at that time. Both greenhouse and...

Abstract:: Volatile compounds of eight pear varieties were isolated and identified by GC/MS. A total of 112 components were identified from headspace of intact fruits, including 47 compounds reported for the first time in pear. The volatile profiles of these pear varieties were characterized by esters, alcohols, hydrocarbons, aldehydes and ketones....

Abstract:: Inflorescence necrosis (IN) is a recently described disorder in grapes characterized by partial or complete deterioration of the pedicel and rachis near bloom. Elevated levels of ammonium in the rachis are associated with the incidence of IN and hypothesized as the cause of the disorder. An incubation system with single-node...

Creator:: Cheng, Suozhan
Abstract:: Inheritance of eight enzyme systems, alanine aminopeptidase (AAP), aspartate aminotransferase (AAT), aconitase (ACON), glucose phosphate isomerase (GPI), malate dehydrogenase (MDH), 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6-PGD), phosphoglucomutase (PGM), and shikimate dehydrogenase (SDH) was studied in hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) by either polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) or starch gel electrophoresis. Three isozymes were detected...

Creator:: Valenciano Mora, Jose Roberto
Abstract:: Although chemical fungicides are commonly used to control fungal soil-borne diseases of Easter lilies, Lilium longiflorum Thunb., in field production and greenhouse forcing, cultural and biological controls may be alternatives or complementary to chemicals for control of pathogens. The influence of inoculations with beneficial, symbiotic, and biocontrol microorganisms to enhance...

Creator:: Bell, Neil (Neil Charles), 1961-
Abstract:: The effect of primocane removal and training time on yield components and cold hardiness of 'Marion' trailing blackberry was studied. In 1991, primocanes were either not cut, or cut at ground level from plants on a single occasion at one month intervals from late April to late July. Four canes...
