Detection, identification, and antibiotic treatments of bacterial contaminants from micropropagated strawberries

Creator:: Tanprasert, Piyarak
Abstract:: Bacterial contamination is one of the most important problems both in plant tissue culture research and commercial laboratories. Early detection of contaminants saves time, effort, and money. Strawberry runner explants were screened for contaminants during June to August, 1994 and 1995. Most contaminants found were bacterial rather than fungal. Bacterial...

Plant hormone-induced defense responses against Botrytis cinerea

Creator:: Akagi, Aya
Abstract:: Several plant hormones, including ethylene and jasmonates, are known to mediate responses against biotic and abiotic stress. The first and second objectives of this thesis were (i) to elucidate the role of ethylene in defense responses against Botrytis cinerea and specifically (ii) to determine the potential contribution of ethylene response...

Breeding for bruchid resistance in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) : interspecific introgression of lectin-like seed proteins from tepary bean (P. acutifolius A. Gray), genetic control and bruchid resistance characterization.

Creator:: Kusolwa, Paul Mbogo
Abstract:: Interspecific hybridization was initiated between wild P. acutifolius accession G40199 and P. vulgaris to introgress resistance to Acanthoscelides obtectus (bean seed weevil). F1 interspecific hybrids were recovered by embryo rescue and maintained until flowering. Mostly sterile hybrids were backcrossed twice to common bean cultivar ICA Pijao to recover sufficient fertility...

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...

Inheritance of resistance to the lentil strain of pea seedborne mosaic virus in Pisum sativum L.

Creator:: Kasimor, Kathryn T.
Abstract:: The inheritance mode of pea-resistance to the Lentil Strain of Pea Seedborne Mosaic Virus (PSbMV-L) was studied. In addition, commercial pea cultivars, Plant Introduction (P.I.) lines and Oregon State University (OSU) breeding lines were tested for susceptibility to this virus. These lines were also tested for their reaction to Bean...

Assays to determine tolerance of cherry rootstock to bacterial canker caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae

Creator:: Krzesinska, Elzbieta Z.
Abstract:: Bacterial canker, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae is recognized as one of the greatest limiting factors in cherry production in Oregon. Disease incidence may be decreased when susceptible cultivars are high-grafted onto tolerant/resistant rootstocks. This research was begun to develop a rapid screening method which could be used to...

On-farm inquiry and assessment of tillage and cover cropping for white mold control in snap bean production

Creator:: Harrison, Elizabeth Langham.
Abstract:: Cultural practices in snap bean production were evaluated at the Oregon State University Vegetable Research Farm Corvallis, Oregon. In addition, decision-making in snap bean production was assessed on five farms in the Coburg-Junction City-Harrisburg regions of the Willamette Valley, Oregon. A field experiment with cover crop and tillage techniques was...

Facilitating plant-parasitic nematode management decisions for Washington Vitis vinifera growers : determining the spatial distribution of plant-parasitic nematodes and the host status of Vitis spp. to Meloidogyne hapla

Creator:: Howland, Amanda D.
Abstract:: A major constraint to the production of self-rooted wine grapes (Vitis vinifera) in eastern Washington is plant-parasitic nematodes. Plant-parasitic nematodes can impact grape productivity by limiting water and nutrient uptake, educing physiological changes, and extracting plant nutrients from roots, thereby reducing root biomass, plant vigor, and yield. The most commonly...

Girdling and shading effects on inflorescence necrosis and rachis composition of pinot noir grapevine

Creator:: Ibacache, Antonio E.
Abstract:: There are several grape disorders that reduce fruit set. One, millerandage, is from poor fertilization to produce "hen and chicken" or small seedless berries; while another, Coulure, is the failure of grape flowers to develop into berries. A third one, inflorescence necrosis (INec), is a disorder that should be in...
