Managing water use and growth of a perennial ryegrass living mulch in Christmas trees

Creator:: Murray, Helene
Abstract:: A living mulch system consists of growing a regulated cover crop with an economic crop. Living mulches are often interplanted with horticultural crops, but competition for water can adversely affect crop production. Various management practices may limit the negative effects. Studies were conducted for two purposes: (1) to determine if...

Micropropagation of Pyrus rootstocks

Creator:: Yeo, Dennis
Abstract:: The availability of new pear rootstocks could be increased by development of an efficient micropropagation system. Many P. calleryana, P. betulifolia and P. communis rootstocks are resistant to many pear diseases and are graft compatible with leading cultivars. Explains of three potentially useful rootstock selections P. calleryana Decne 'OPR 157',...

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...

Sugar uptake, fruit growth and carbon partitioning in the strawberry

Creator:: Forney, Charles F.
Abstract:: Sinks, plant organs which depend on the import of assimilates for growth, play a central role in determining assimilate distribution patterns within the plant. The strawberry fruit is a strong sink for dry matter and its effect on carbon partitioning and assimilation in the plant as well as the mechanism...

Factors influencing storage quality of hazelnut varieties

Creator:: Ebrahem, Kais Shaheb
Abstract:: This thesis research is a series of five studies dealing with various aspects of hazelnut quality: 1. Identification of kernel mold and its incidence among hazelnut varieties. 2. Seasonal development and composition of kernels. 3. Hazelnut oil composition (fatty acids and tocopherols) of seventeen varieties. 4. Hazelnut oil composition compared...

A closed root environment for plant production

Creator:: Blackburn, Bryan (Bryan Keith), 1955-
Abstract:: Thesis research focused on: 1) Water and fertilizer gradients within the plant root zone, and effects of chemical and physical gradients on Trichoderma harzianum populations. 2) Regulation of root growth physically with permeable fabric containers and chemically with copper compounds. 3) Effects of copper coatings for fabric containers on Glomus...

The role of glutathione in the development and release of rest on 'Redhaven' peaches

Creator:: Siller-Cepeda, Jorge H.
Abstract:: A rapid and sensitive HPLC method for quantifying both the reduced and oxidized forms of glutathione simultaneously in woody plant tissues was developed. This method was applicable to a variety of woody plant species and different tissues. Total glutathione content in the bark tissue of seven of the woody plant...
