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...

Characterizing grapevine canopy architecture

Creator:: Navarrete, Alejandra
Abstract:: Vertically shoot positioned (VSP) training systems are common in Oregon's Willamette Valley, where deep fertile soils and high regional precipitation task growers with curbing vegetative vigor within this system. Management strategies, such as canopy hedging and cluster-zone leaf removal, are used to improve microclimate within the canopy and around the...

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...

DNA markers and characterization of novel sources of eastern filbert blight resistance in European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.)

Creator:: Peterschmidt, Brooke C.
Abstract:: European hazelnut is a significant crop in the Pacific Northwest, and the US ranks 4th internationally for hazelnut production. Production in the Pacific Northwest is threatened, however, by the disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the fungus Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. To meet the challenges faced by the...

Determining the Impacts of Dormant Pruning Methods and Nitrogen Fertilization on Vitis vinifera 'Pinot noir' Bud Fruitfulness and Yield

Creator:: Ulmer, Miranda R.
Abstract:: The majority of grapes grown in Oregon are produced in Western Oregon’s Willamette Valley, where two-thirds of the acreage is planted to Pinot noir. The production of Pinot noir in the Willamette Valley comes at a high cost, and growers are seeking ways to increase profits while maintaining quality fruit...

Impacts of crop level and vine vigor on vine balance and fruit composition in Oregon Pinot noir

Creator:: Vance, Amanda J.
Abstract:: Vineyard management strategies, including vineyard floor management and crop level management, can be used to influence vine vigor and fruit composition. Two studies were conducted to evaluate the impact of these practices on Pinot Noir in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Managing crop levels is common in cool climate vineyard production though...
