Sugar transport in strawberry fruit : uptake competition and developmental changes in invertase levels

Creator:: Scott, James Douglas
Abstract:: Mechanisms by which plant organs accumulate photoassimilate are important in determining final sink size and may involve invertase activity. Because strawberry fruit are strong sinks for sugars, changes in invertase levels during development and mechanisms of sugar uptake within the fruit were examined. Fruit from greenhouse-grown, day-neutral strawberries, (Fragaria X...

Relationships between endogenous phenolic compounds of rhododendron tissues and organs and cold hardiness development

Creator:: Chalker-Scott, Linda
Abstract:: The leaching of water soluble phenolic compounds from cold stressed Rhododendron leaves was found to be a reliable indicator of tissue damage. In sublethally stressed leaf tissues, more and novel phenolic compounds appeared and were hypothesized to be precursors of cell wall components such as lignin and suberin. Subsequent radiolabeling...

Water management tools and irrigation strategies for blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry production in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Carroll, Jesse L.
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest region of the United States is known for quality production of blueberries, blackberries, and red raspberries. However, as the climate shifts to warmer, drier, and more extreme summers, growing these water intensive berry crops is becoming increasingly difficult. Furthermore, water regulations within agriculture are becoming more prevalent...

Boron nutrition and fruit set of 'Italian' prune

Creator:: Hanson, Eric J.
Abstract:: Foliar B sprays have increased fruit set in 'Italian' prune (Prunus domestica L.) by 2 fold in some trials and had no effect in others. This work was conducted to identify reasons for this inconsistent response. Since B levels in flowers are associated with the amount of fruit set, factors...

Expansion, apoplastic solutes, and sugar uptake in developing strawberry fruit

Creator:: Pomper, Kirk W. (Kirk William)
Abstract:: Identification of factors that affect water and sugar transport in strawberry could aid in attempts to influence fruit size and quality. Apoplastic water potential (Ψaw) gradients within the strawberry plant, that could influence water and assimilate transport, were identified. Fruit expansion was very sensitive to water stress and occurred when...

Sugar uptake, fruit growth and carbon partitioning in the strawberry

Creator:: Forney, Charles F.
Abstract:: Sinks, plant organs which depend on the import of assimilates for growth, play a central role in determining assimilate distribution patterns within the plant. The strawberry fruit is a strong sink for dry matter and its effect on carbon partitioning and assimilation in the plant as well as the mechanism...

Effects of irrigation scheduling, using remotely sensed canopy-air temperature differentials, on water relations, yield, and quality of snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

Creator:: Bonanno, A. Richard
Abstract:: Field experiments were conducted in 1981 and 1982 to develop a method for using remotely measured leaf canopy-air temperature differences (stress-degree-days (SDD)) to schedule irrigations and to evaluate the effects of differential irrigation on snap bean cultivars, 'Oregon 1604' and 'Galamor'. Effects on soil water potential (SWP), leaf water potential...

Inflorescence necrosis, ammonium, and evidence for ferredoxin-glutamate synthase activity in grape (Vitis vinifera L.)

Creator:: Creasy, Glen L.
Abstract:: Death of flower parts near bloom due to inflorescence necrosis (IN) is associated with high ammonium (NH₄⁺) concentration in flower clusters, shade, cool wet weather preceding bloom, and excessive vigor. Faults in NH₄⁺ assimilation are suspected to cause a rise in NH₄⁺ concentration to toxic levels in flower cluster but...

Influence of irrigation and plant population on yield parameters, flower and pod abscission, and photosynthate distribution in snap beans, Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Creator:: Mauk, Craighton Stiles
Abstract:: During 2 seasons effects of high and low irrigation (water applied at -0.6 and -2.5 bars soil water potential, respectively) and density were evaluated on yield parameters and flower/pod development at mainstem nodes 2 and 6 (terminal) of 'Oregon 1604', a determinate snap bean. High and low plant densities were...
