Dry weight and 15N-nitrogen and partitioning, growth, and development of young and mature blueberry plants

Creator:

Bañados, Maria Pilar

Abstract:

The effect of planting density and nitrogen (N) fertilization on growth, yield, and N partitioning in young and mature 'Bluecrop' blueberry plants was studied over a two year period. Depleted 15N-ammonium sulfate was applied at different rates and on different dates in a mature planting, and at different rates in...

Genetics of low erucic acid and cytological analyses of wide hybrids in meadowfoam

Creator:

Gandhi, Sonali Dilip

Abstract:

Cultivated meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Benth.) is an annual oil seed crop native to southern Oregon. California and British Columbia. The genus Limnanthes is composed of nine species and divided into two sections, Inflexae and Reflexae. The seed oil of meadowfoam is a rich source of erucic acid and several novel...

Mapping quantitative trait loci underlying genome-wide recombination rate and mating system differences in meadowfoam

Creator:

Kishore, Venkata Krishna

Abstract:

Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Bentham; Order: Brassicales; Family: Limnanthaceae) is a self-compatible, predominantly allogamous, insect pollinated species. Meadowfoam oil is a source of novel unsaturated very-long-chain (VLC) seed oils (C₂₀ and C₂₂) with low concentrations of saturated fatty acids (typically less than 2%) and outstanding oxidative stability. Here we report the...
