Comparison of baits for monitoring the spotted wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii

Creator:: Kleiber, Joseph R.
Abstract:: Spotted wing Drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae), is a pest of small and stone fruits that is widely distributed across much of the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. Unlike other members of the Drosophilidae that only lay eggs in overripe or rotting fruit, SWD infest ripening and ripe...

Effect of planting method, weed management, and fertilizer on plant growth and yield of newly established organic highbush blueberries

Creator:: Larco, Handell O.
Abstract:: A 0.4 ha planting of blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) was established in Oct. 2006 to evaluate the effects of cultivar (Duke and Liberty), planting method (flat versus raised beds), weed management (sawdust mulch and hand-weed control; compost plus sawdust mulch with acetic acid, flaming, and hand-weeding used as needed; and...

Eastern filbert blight in hazelnut (Corylus avellana): identification of new resistance sources and high resolution genetic and physical mapping of a resistance gene

Creator:: Sathuvalli, Vidyasagar R.
Abstract:: European hazelnut, Corylus avellana L., is the only economically important nut crop in the family Betulaceae. One of the threats to the hazelnut industry in the Pacific Northwest is the fungal disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the pyrenomycete Anisogramma anomala. Host genetic resistance to EFB identified in the...

The need to breed crop varieties suitable for organic farming using wheat, tomato and broccoli as examples: A review

Creator:: Lammerts van Bueren, E. T., Jones, S. S., Tamm, L., Murphy, K. M., Myers, J. R., Leifert, C., and Messmer, M. M.
Abstract:: It is estimated that more than 95% of organic production is based on crop varieties that were bred for the conventional high-input sector. Recent studies have shown that such varieties lack important traits required under organic and low-input production conditions. This is primarily due to selection in conventional breeding programmes...

Behavior of Drosophila suzukii in Relation to Abiotic, Biotic, and Nutrient Factors

Creator:: Park, Kyoo Rok
Abstract:: Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae), is a serious pest in soft and stone fruit industries worldwide. The unique serrated ovipositor of female Drosophila suzukii allowed the species to reproduce in intact, ripening fruit before the harvest. Current control methods rely heavily on insecticide application, only becoming less profitable due to the...

Effects of flooding on peach, apple, quince and several pear species

Creator:: Andersen, Peter C.
Abstract:: A series of experiments was designed to investigate differential flood-tolerance and the phenomenon of flood-induced stomatal closure of several fruit tree species. The first two experiments were conducted with potted plants submerged outdoors 5-10 cm above the soil line. Plant morphology, growth, leaf conductance (cL), and soil oxygen diffusion rate...

Nutrient management of blackberry cultivars grown in organic production systems

Creator:: Fernandez-Salvador, Javier A.
Abstract:: The impact of fertilizer source and cultivar on growth, fruit quality, and yield was evaluated in organic blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus Watson) from 2011-2013 in three studies. In all studies, plants were drip irrigated, and weeds were managed using a woven polypropylene, permeable landscape fabric (weed mat). At a...

Evaluating the Attractiveness of Pacific Northwest Native Plants to Insects and Gardeners

Creator:: Anderson, Aaron G.
Abstract:: Due to a growing body of literature documenting declines in pollinator populations, there has been increased public interest in pollinator conservation. In urban and suburban landscapes, many gardeners and urban land managers are interested in gardening for pollinators, particularly bees. Simultaneously, many homeowners and municipalities are interested in other aspects...
