Effects of tillage-induced soil compaction on carrot seedlings emergence and yield

Creator:: Thomasson, James E.
Abstract:: The effects of five tillage treatments on soil bulk density and mechanical impedance were examined on Newburg sandy loam soil in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, in 1987. Subsequent effects on seedling emergence and yield of carrots (Daucus carota L., cvs. Orlando Gold and Royal Chantenay) were also measured. Mechanical impedance...

Nitrogen dynamics in field grown comice pears

Creator:: Sanchez, Enrique E.
Abstract:: The dynamics of N was studied in field grown Comice/Provence quince BA29 pears in Medford, Oregon. Total tree biomass, N content, and ¹⁵N evaluations suggest that young pears require little N (48 kg N ha⁻¹ yr⁻¹). About 45% of total tree N present in dormant trees was remobilized into new...

Effect of row cover and supplemental Ca fertilization on blossom-end rot in bell pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum, Grossom Group)

Creator:: Alexander, Shara E.
Abstract:: A 2-year trial was conducted at Oregon State University's Hermiston Agricultural Research and Extension Center to examine the effects of spunbonded row cover and supplemental calcium fertilization on blossom-end rot in two varieties of bell pepper. Blossom-end rot is a common cause of bell pepper yield losses, especially at the...

Improving fertilizer P and N use efficiency in sweet corn : 2013 Research report to the Oregon Processed Vegetable Commission

Creator:: Heinrich, Aaron, Sullivan, Dan M., and Peachey, Ed
Abstract:: The enhanced efficiency (EEF) products we tested in our study hold the potential to increase the nitrogen utilization efficiency of sweet corn as well as reduce nitrate leaching when all N fertilizer is applied before planting. However, this potential is limited by weather (i.e. large early season rainfall events), irrigation...

Effect of boron on seven vegetable crops grown on two soil types

Creator:: Oneida, Kelly Ann
Abstract:: Boron deficiency or toxicity can reduce yield and quality of vegetables. Seven vegetable crops, varying from low to high boron requirements were grown in field plots at Corvallis in 1987. Leaf-B and yield components of green bean, cucumber, potato, carrot, tomato, broccoli and table beet were examined under conditions of...

Inheritance of resistance to Fusarium root rot in Phaseolus vulgaris L., and Phaseolus coccineus L.

Creator:: Azzam, Hassan Ahmed
Abstract:: Progenies of two bean crosses were studied for inheritance of resistance to dry root rot caused by Fusarium solani f. phaseoli. O.S.C. 22 (P. vulgaris) was used in both crosses as the susceptible parent. A Mexican line (P. vulgaris) and a line 2014 of the runner bean (P. coccineus) were...

Soil Water Tension Irrigation Criteria Affects Both Stevia Rebaudiana Leaf Yield and Leaf Steviol Glycoside Composition

Creator:: Parris, Cheryl A.
Abstract:: Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana) is a perennial herbaceous plant native to Paraguay and used traditionally by the native Guarani peoples for centuries to sweeten medicinal teas. Stevia has only been commercially cultivated over the past 50 years and cultural practice information suitable for implementation by growers is limited. Currently stevia’s commercial...

Evaluating Alternative Soil Amendments for Organic Northern Highbush Blueberry Cultivation in Sub-Optimal Soils

Creator:: Retano, Andrea
Abstract:: Escalating demand for organic blueberries has driven a significant expansion of northern highbush blueberry (NHB; Vaccinium corymbosum L.) production area. This expansion is particularly pronounced in regions of the Pacific Northwest where native soil conditions are sub-optimal for NHB, notably east of the Cascade Mountain Range of Oregon and Washington,...

The performance of N-(1,1-dimethylpropynyl)-3,5-dichlorobenzamide and other herbicides in controlling weeds in lettuce as affected by soil type and weather conditions

Creator:: Mitidieri, Agustin
Abstract:: Chemicals are being sought that can control weeds in lettuce under different environmental conditions, soil types and weed populations. The extensive or repeated use of a herbicide may lead to important changes in the weed population which call for new materials that can take care of the modified situation. In...
