Studies of napropamide decomposition on the soil surface

Creator:: Apley, Kathryn Lynne
Abstract:: Napropamide [2-(alpha-naphthoxyl)-N,N-diethylpropionamide], a preemergence herbicide, is widely used in the United States on a variety of tree fruits, nut crops, vegetables, and mint for annual grass and broadleaf weed control. When napropamide has been left on the soil surface without incorporation through irrigation or mechanical means, inconsistent results have been...

Fluoride sorption and dissolution reactions in soils

Creator:: Peek, Daniel C.
Abstract:: The reaction of F, often a component of industrial wastes and phosphatic fertilizers, with soil was studied with regard to sorption reactions and resultant changes in solution composition. Sodium fluoride solutions (0.0 to 2.5 mmol/L F) were equilibrated with ten soils for 24h. The soil extract solutions were analyzed for...

Postemergence herbicides and take-all disease in winter wheat : alterations in the incidence and severity of disease and crop growth

Creator:: Geddens, Ray M.
Abstract:: Eight postemergence herbicides were evaluated to determine their influence on the incidence and severity of take-all disease caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici in winter wheat. Mecoprop ((+)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propanoic acid), difenzoquat (1,2- dimethyl- 3,5- diphenyl -1H- pyrazolium), dinoseb amine (amine salt of 2-(1-methylpropy1)-4,6-dinitrophenol), and diclofopmethyl (methyl ester of (+)-2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)...

Paclobutrazol and nutrient treatment effects on ovation perennial ryegrass

Creator:: Turner, J. Kevin
Abstract:: Rapid tiller and root production can improve seedling survival and benefit stand establishment of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) in commercial seed fields. Environmental conditions after establishment and inherent morphological factors combine to reduce the commercially harvested yield below the theoretical potential yield. These studies were conducted to determine if...

The population dynamics and growth of salmonberry (Rubus spectabilis) and thimbleberry (Rubus parviflorus)

Creator:: Maxwell, Bruce D.
Abstract:: Salmonberry (Rubus spectabilis) and thimbleberry (Rubus parviflorus) are clonal shrub species common to reforestation sites in the Oregon Coast Range. These species have economic importance, because they reduce conifer seedling growth and survival. A population modeling approach was used to facilitate study of the biology of these species and to...

The effects of paclobutrazol and uniconazol on red clover seed production

Creator:: Silberstein, Thomas B.
Abstract:: Excessive growth by red clover, Trifolium pratense L., grown for seed interferes with maximum seed production and harvest in Oregon's Willamette Valley. This study was conducted during 1986 and 1987 on red clover cv. Kenland to determine if plant height and dry matter production could be inhibited and seed yields...

Symbiotic characteristics of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii recovered from nodules of field-grown Trifolium subterraneum L.

Creator:: Wanjagi, Francis Ndung'u
Abstract:: In a series of greenhouse experiments, isolates representing serotypically distinct subpopulations of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii recovered from root nodules of field-grown subclover Trifolium subterraneum cv. "Nangeela"), were evaluated for their symbiotic effectiveness potential, their effect on regrowth potential of subclover, and for their competitive abilities to form nodules. Isolates...

Possible association of grain protein content, harvest index and biological yield in winter wheat populations

Creator:: Costa, Jose Maria
Abstract:: A negative relation between grain protein content and grain yield is frequently observed in wheat (Triticum aestivum L. em Thell) i.e. as grain yield increases, grain protein decreases. It has been suggested that the inverse relation between grain yield and protein is in part the result of developing high yielding...
