The free radical scavenging system in overcoming phytotoxicity and breaking dormancy

Creator:

Zhen, Liping

Abstract:

Hydrogen cyanamide (CY) induced earlier budbreak, more uniform and a higher percentage of budbreak in resting poplar (Populus alba x P. gradidentata, NC 5339) plants. However, it was phytotoxic to poplar when applied at 0.5 M or higher concentrations. Percent budbreak increased and percent dieback decreased when poplar plants were...

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...

Modeling of dormancy and cold hardiness in red-osier dogwood (Cornus sericea L.)

Creator:

Kobayashi, Kent

Abstract:

Effects of temperature and growth stage on vegetative bud development and stem hardiness of red-osier dogwood during winter dormancy were investigated. Results were related to a degree growth stage model and were used to develop models to predict growth stages, to quantify development, and to predict hardiness. Maximum rest development...
