Influence of canopy orientation on fruiting of 'Ànjou' pears and postharvest urea spray on ovule longevity and fruit set of 'C̀omice' pears

Creator:: Khemira, Habib
Abstract:: The effect of canopy orientation on fruiting performance of 'Beurre d'Anjou' pears (Pyrus communis L.) and postharvest urea spray on ovule longevity and fruit set of 'Doyenne du Comice' pears were studied. Hedgerows of 'Beurre d'Anjou' pear trees planted in 1969 in two orientations north-south (N-S) and east-west (E-W) were...

Isozyme banding patterns and embryo development in interspecific crosses of Phaseolus

Creator:: Guo, Mei
Abstract:: Interspecific hybridization between Phaseolus vulgaris and P. coccineus results in the formation of either mature F₁ seeds or abnormal embryos, depending on the direction of the cross. However, normal as well as abnormal embryos occur in the reciprocal F₂ populations. The exact cause of abnormal embryo development is unknown. To...

Fall applied ethephon and temperature effects on flower bud growth and ovule longevity in Prunus domestica

Creator:: Moreno-Simunovic, Yerko M.
Abstract:: In the Pacific Northwest some prune cultivars often exhibit inconsistent fruit set. Several factors have been associated with this characteristic. Temperature, genotype and boron content are among the most frequently mentioned. Studies were conducted to determine the effect of fall ethephon application on flower bud growth and ovule longevity in...

Effects of inoculation with rhizobium and nitrogen fertilizer on snap beans, soybeans and lima beans

Creator:: Ma, Mei-hwa Wang
Abstract:: The responses of 'Oregon 1604' snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), 'Early Thorogreen' lima beans (Phaseolus lunatus L.), and 'Takii's Extra Early' soybeans (Glycine max L.) to two methods of inoculation with rhizobium (seedcoating and furrow treatments) and rates of nitrogen fertilizer were studied in field experiments. Nitrogen rates ranged from...

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...

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...

Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) control with ethofumesate during turfgrass establishment

Creator:: Wieneche, David L.
Abstract:: Temperate climates are particularly conducive to growth of annual bluegrass which readily invades and dominates most cool-season turfgrasses. Ethofumesate (2-ethoxy-2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-5-benzofuranyl methanesulfonate) is one herbicide available which will selectively control annual bluegrass. The primary objectives of this research were to determine optimum application rates and timing of ethofumesate for control of...
