The antidote (1, 8 naphthalic anhydride) is recommended for
corn protection against EPTC injury where the antidote is applied at
a half percent by weight of corn seeds before planting.
Studies were
conducted to determine the factors affecting the action of antidote in
corn (Zea mays L. var. NB 501D)...
Experiments were conducted to determine the effect of environment
and several plant growth regulators on the physiology, quality,
and agronomic performance of snap beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. )
and spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ). The potassium salts of
naphthenic acid and cyclohexanecarboxylic acid, received particular
attention.
Application of potassium...
The relationships between avian community structure and herbicide
modification of vegetation were analyzed on early-growth clearcuts in
western Oregon that had received phenoxy herbicide treatment 1 or
4 years previously. Only minor effects of herbicide treatment were
evident 1-year after spraying, except for red adler (Alnus rubra),
which still exhibited...
Competitive interactions between Douglas-fir seedlings (Pseudotsuga menziesii), and seedlings of a nitrogen-fixing hardwood
associate, red alder (Alnus rubra), were investigated in an addition series experiment. The primary objective of the research was to identify and quantify key processes underlying intra- and interspecific competitive interactions of Douglas-fir and red alder seedlings....
