Survey of strawberry genotypes for infection of flower tissues by Botrytis cinerea

Creator:

Reyes, Luis Antonio

Abstract:

Recent research shows that flower parts of strawberry (Fragaria X ananassa Duch.) differ in their capacity to support the growth of Botrytis cinerea, the fungus which causes gray mold on fruit. Growth in styles is slow and hyphae rarely enter the carpel (achene), suggesting that this pathway is not the...

Effects of nitrogen source, rate and a nitrification inhibitor on soil nitrogen status and mineral composition of strawberry

Creator:

Marion, Carol I.

Abstract:

Three rates of urea, urea-DCD, and NH₄N0₃ were soil applied in April and August 1986 to strawberry selection OR-US 4930 and cultivar 'Sumas' to determine effects of the nitrification inhibitor dicyandiamide (DCD) and nitrogen source and rate on soil NH₄ and N0₃ levels, fruit yield and quality, and mineral composition...

Effect of date of renovation on yield components of strawberries

Creator:

Zhang, Lingxiao

Abstract:

Two experiments were conducted from 1987 to 1990 to study the effect of date of renovation on strawberry yield and yield components. In the first experiment, 'Benton' plants were renovated from July 6, 1988 (1 week after harvest - WAH) to August 24, 1988 (8 WAH). In the second experiment...

Changes in developing strawberry fruit : I. Cell division and enlargement ; and II. Biosynthesis of anthocyanins and other phenolics and activity of associated enzymes

Creator:

Cheng, Guiwen

Abstract:

Size and color are important visual quantity attributes of the fruit of strawberry (Fmgaria x ananassa Duch.). Strawberry cultivars produce fruit of a characteristic size and color, the later being the result of accumulation of particular anthocyanins. This research sought to determine the basis for genotypic differences in fruit size...
