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...

Water and Soil Management Practices to Enhance Plant Growth, Berry Development, and Fruit Quality of Northern Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Almutairi, Khalid F.
Abstract:: Drought and mandatory water restrictions are limiting the availability of irrigation water in many important blueberry growing regions and new strategies are needed to maintain yield and fruit quality with less water. Three potential options for reducing water use, including deficit irrigation, irrigation cut-offs, and crop thinning, were evaluated for...

Vineyard floor vegetation management and mineral nutrient competition in grapes

Creator:: Tan, Siyuan
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted on wine grapes 'Chardonnay' and 'Gewurtztraminer' (Vitis vinifera L.) in 1986 and 1987 to investigate the performance of grapes in competition with perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) 'Manhattan 11' sod, the competition between sod and grapes for nutrients and moisture and the effects of nitrogen fertilization...

Variation and heritability of vegetative, reproductive and fruit chemistrytraits in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.)

Creator:: Dossett, Michael
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are ill adapted...

Using Vineyard Floor Management to Manipulate Vine Vigor: Impacts on 'Pinot noir' Yield Productivity and Fruit Composition

Creator:: Reeve, Alison L.
Abstract:: Winegrapes are an important crop for Oregon agriculture, ranking amongst the top ten agricultural commodities based on farmgate value. The most widely planted winegrape cultivar in the state is ‘Pinot noir’ (Vitis vinifera L.), and the majority of acreage is produced in the Willamette Valley. Production of quality ‘Pinot noir’...

Transfer, characterization and mapping of white mold resistance in an advanced backcross interspecific population between Phaseolus vulgaris and Phaseolus coccineus

Creator:: Zimmerman, Shawna Jean
Abstract:: The advanced backcross-quatitative trait loci (AB-QTL) breeding method was employed on snap bean (OR 91G x PI433251B) and dry bean (M0162 x PI433251B) interspecific populations to transfer resistance QTL from resistant donor parent Phaseolus coccineus into P. vulgaris. For OR 91G x PI433251B, analyses produced nine linkage groups corresponding to...

Traditional and molecular approaches to Zucchini yellow mosaic virus resistance in Cucurbita

Creator:: Brown, Rebecca Nelson
Abstract:: Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) is an important disease of Cucurbita worldwide. Resistant cultivars are the best means of control. ZYMV resistance is quantitative in the wild species C. ecuadorensis, and is controlled by at least three genes in tropical C moschata. Very little molecular work has been done in...

The inheritance of pod detachment force in green beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

Creator:: McCluskey, Rebecca L.
Abstract:: The easy picking characteristic, expressed as low pod detachment force (PDF), offers a way to decrease pod damage in bush green beans mechanically harvested for processing and fresh market, and makes hand picking easier and faster. This study was undertaken to examine inheritance in a cross of two green bean...

The effects of tillage and irrigation on sweet corn (Zea mays L.) development, yield, and water use

Creator:: Petersen, Kerry L.
Abstract:: 'Jubilee' sweet corn was grown under conventional tillage and strip tillage in 1982 and under conventional tillage, strip tillage and no-till culture in 1983. Effects on soil temperature, stand establishment, plant development parameters, overall yield, yield components, and water use efficiency were measured. In 1982, conventional tillage appeared to have...

Structuring habitat to conserve ground beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae) and reduce summer annual weeds in agroecosystems

Creator:: Green, Jessica M.
Abstract:: Weed management in sustainable farming systems often requires the integration of several different pest management techniques. Cultural, biological, and chemical pest control efforts can be utilized to contribute to the common goal of reducing weeds in vegetable row crop systems. This research addresses how common disturbances such as tillage and...
