Differences between mineral analyses from cork spotted and extra fancy 'Anjou' pear fruit

Creator:: Curtis, Daniel W.
Abstract:: The feasibility of using a post harvest sampling time for fruit testing in Anjou pears was evaluated. The goal was to determine if a simple and rapid analysis of fruit tissues could be useful in identifying potentially weak fruit that could be marketed before the onset of the storage disorder...

Influence of cover crop residue management on soil moisture, vine growth, and productivity in a pre-production vineyard in the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Curtis, Morgan A.
Abstract:: The use of cover crops in young vineyards is not widely accepted in the Pacific Northwest due to concerns of water and nutrient competition between the cover crop and vines. The last 2 years of a 4-year study started in 2009 are reported here. The study evaluated the use of...

Breeding Snap Beans for Organic Agriculture: Genomic Shifts under Different Agricultural Management Systems

Creator:: King, Ryan M.
Abstract:: Although the concept of breeding crops for organic agricultural systems has been around for decades, few studies have been reported for vegetable crops to quantify and compare how conventional and organic systems differ in their selection pressures on genotypes advancing through the breeding cycle; especially research utilizing modern sequencing capabilities....

Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) control with ethofumesate during turfgrass establishment

Creator:: Wieneche, David L.
Abstract:: Temperate climates are particularly conducive to growth of annual bluegrass which readily invades and dominates most cool-season turfgrasses. Ethofumesate (2-ethoxy-2,3-dihydro-3,3-dimethyl-5-benzofuranyl methanesulfonate) is one herbicide available which will selectively control annual bluegrass. The primary objectives of this research were to determine optimum application rates and timing of ethofumesate for control of...

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...

Evaluating the Potential of Protein Supplements and Probiotics for Improving Honey Bee Health and Understanding Honey Bee Behaviors Related to Social Immunity

Creator:: Chapkin, Elissa R.
Abstract:: Managed honey bees (Apis mellifera) play a vital role in pollinating cultivated crops worldwide. Honey bee colony declines reported in the past two decades have been associated with stressors such as pests and diseases, pesticide exposure, and poor nutrition. In the wake of these colony declines, beekeepers have strived to...
