Influence of photosynthesis and carbohydrates on adventitious root formation by leafy cuttings

Creator:: Davis, Tim D.
Abstract:: Many investigators have suggested that current photosynthate supply can limit adventitious root formation on leafy cuttings. Accordingly, studies were undertaken to determine the effects of altering photosynthesis and carbohydrate levels on adventitious root formation by leafy cuttings of a number of different species. Pea cuttings rooted at high CO₂ (1800...

The effects of light on photosynthesis and rooting of leafy cuttings of Pisum sativum L.

Creator:: Davis, Tim D.
Abstract:: The effects of light incident on leafy cuttings is quite complex because' light influences several factors which may affect root formation. One effect of light is to influence the carbohydrate status of the cutting by influencing photosynthesis. The role of current photosynthate in the rooting of leafy cuttings is uncertain....

Evaluation of Vitis rootstocks for tolerance to low soil pH

Creator:: Taylor, Patrick Andrew
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine the relative tolerance of grafted Vitis rootstocks to low soil pH. In this capacity, the data may be pooled with results from previous investigations to increase the overall aptitude profile of Vitis rootstocks. A potential application of this information is that the...

Plant selection, irrigation requirements and stormwater management of Pacific Northwest extensive green roofs

Creator:: Shroll, Erin
Abstract:: An alternative to traditional roofing, extensive green roofs are contained ecosystems consisting of a drainage layer, a thin media profile which is planted with hardy plant species. Extensive green roof plants must maintain multiple functions while growing in a highly aggregate media at a depth of equal to or less...

Endogenous factors influencing decay susceptibility and quality of 'd' Anjou' pear (Pyrus communis L.) fruit during maturation and storage

Creator:: Boonyakiat, Danai
Abstract:: The major phenolics of 'd' Anjou' pear (Pyrus communis L.) tissues were chlorogenic acid and arbutin. Chlorogenic acid inhibited mycelial growth and spore germination of Penicillium expansum and mycelial growth of Mucor piriformis. Slight increases in radial growth and spore germination of Botrytis cinerea occurred on chlorogenic acid media. Chlorogenic...

Germination and establishment in Willamette Valley native prairie plants

Creator:: Russell, Michael C.
Abstract:: Native plants provide many ecosystem services while also having great beauty and are a valuable component of the landscape. As use of these plants in habitat restoration, agricultural insectary plantings, and home landscapes increases so does demand for information on the basic biology of a group of species that have...

Habitat management for beneficial insects on Willamette Valley vegetable and berry farms

Creator:: Russell, Michael C.
Abstract:: Conservation biological control involves manipulating farm landscapes or management systems to enhance populations of beneficial predators of agricultural pests. Farmscaping is one aspect of conservation biological control where predators of important pests are identified, the availability on the farm landscape of resources and habitat components needed by the beneficials to...

Water Efficiency for Urban Landscapes in Semi-Arid Environments

Creator:: Martinson, Richard W.
Abstract:: Urban landscape water use is increasingly a focus of water conservation efforts. This is especially true in the arid and semi-arid regions of the western United States where increased demand, environmental concerns, and extended periods of drought have created chronic water shortages. However, until recently, little attention has been paid...

The effect of pre-plant incorporation with sawdust, sawdust mulch, and nitrogen fertilizer rate on soil properties and nitrogen uptake and growth of 'Elliott' highbush blueberry

Creator:: White, Linda D. (Linda Dee)
Abstract:: The effect of incorporated sawdust, sawdust mulch and nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate on soil nutrients and other properties, N uptake, and plant growth in a young blueberry planting on a silt loam soil type was studied in 2004 and 2005. ‘Elliott’ highbush blueberry plants were established on raised beds that...
