Evaluating the Effects of Alleyway Management on the Performance of Dry-Farmed Pinot noir Grown in Different Soils

Creator:: Lange, Mathew
Abstract:: Vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley are predominately planted to perennial grass cover in the alleyways of vineyards. This grass cover is grown to increase worker and equipment traction, as well as reduce erosion and manage vine vegetative vigor. However, with increasing frequencies of drought and warming temperatures, the use of...

Partial purification and characterization of a zeatin Cis-trans isomerase from Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Creator:: Bassil, Nahla V.
Abstract:: Conversion of exogenous cis-zeatin to trans-zeatin in immature seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris L. led to the isolation of a cis-trans isomerase from the endosperm. The enzyme was purified over 2000-fold by chromatography on a series of FPLC (anion exchange, gel filtration, and hydrophobic interaction) and Concanavalin A columns. Non-enzymatic isomerization...

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...

Effects of pollen collected by honey bees from pollination dependent agricultural cropping systems on honey bee nutrition

Creator:: Topitzhofer, Ellen
Abstract:: Managed honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies are important pollinators of many cultivated crops. Honey bee colony declines averaging 30% annually in the United States for the past 7 years have caused significant concern and hence have been a topic of intensive investigation. These declines are reportedly due to multiple...

Alternative orchard floor management practices, soil quality, nitrogen fertilizeruptake, and apple tree growth and yield

Creator:: McDonald, Sarah Finger
Abstract:: Orchard floor management (OFM) practices can improve soil function and alter the soil biological community. Soil function is dependent on soil forming materials and on management practices but little is known about how OFM affect orchard soil quality, fertilizer N uptake, or tree growth and production. Research plots were located...

Investigating Alternative Irrigation Strategies and Sources for the Cool-Humid Willamette Valley

Creator:: Olsen, Conner J.
Abstract:: Rising human populations and climate change are putting increasing demands on our already-limited freshwater sources. In response to these concerns, homeowners and municipalities have been encouraged to replace turfgrass – a plant with relatively high irrigation needs – with drought-tolerant plants that do not require frequent irrigation. However, the many...

Effects of planting bush beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) in single or double rows

Creator:: Mhaka, Amon Gwaziva
Abstract:: A comparison was made between double rows 15 cm apart on 76 cm centers and single rows 76 cm apart of 'Oregon 91G' bush green beans at the same planting densities in three experiments in 1986 and 1987. There was a significant increase in yields of pods from double rows...

Ecophenology and Control of European Frogbit in a Hybrid Cattail Marsh of the St. Marys River, Michigan

Creator:: Wellons, Kathryn C.
Abstract:: Great Lakes coastal wetland communities are threatened by the impacts of invasive plants on ecosystem function and biodiversity. What allows invasive plants to become dominant in invaded communities can be hard to define and context-dependent. Traits associated with invasion success in wetland systems – rapid vegetative growth, competitive superiority in...

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...
