Creator:: Myers, James R.
Abstract:: The accessions used to create the Snap Bean Diversity Panel were 150 snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) cultivars and breeding lines selected from North American and European germplasm to create a population that is representative of the snap bean market class from a historical and geographical viewpoint. This panel was developed...

Creator:: Myers, James R.
Abstract:: Processors need broccoli with better quality traits than what is available in cultivars developed for California and Mexico fresh markets. Farmers need to reduce labor costs of broccoli production by mechanizing harvest. Most contemporary commercially available cultivars are not suitable for either mechanical harvest or processing. The objective of the...

Creator:: Myers, James R.
Abstract:: Objectives: 1. Breed Bush Blue Lake green bean varieties with high economic yield and improved plant architecture. 2. Improve pod characteristics including straightness, color, smoothness, texture, flavor and quality retention, and combine with delayed seed size development. 3. Incorporate white mold resistance and improve root rot tolerance. 4. Map genes...

Creator:: Myers, James R. and Celebioglu, Burcu
Abstract:: The accessions used to create the Snap Bean Diversity Panel (SnAP) were 378 snap bean cultivars and germplasm lines selected from North American and European germplasm. This panel supplements the 150 member Bean CAP snap bean diversity panel (SBDP) with an additional 228 snap bean accessions. The Bean CAP SBDP...

Creator:: Myers, James R. and Yorgey, Brian
Abstract:: Research efforts were focused on testing various inbred combinations for hybrid production and adaptation to Oregon growing conditions. Trials at the Vegetable Re-search Farm included a yield trial of OSU derived hybrids, and observation trials of OSU inbreds and hybrids. Breeding funds were used for a major portion of the...

Creator:: Myers, James R. and Yorgey, Brian
Abstract:: Processors need broccoli with better quality traits than what is available in cultivars developed for California and Mexico fresh markets. Farmers need to reduce labor costs of broccoli production but mechanizing harvest. Most contemporary commercially available cultivars are not suitable for either mechanical harvest or processing.

Creator:: Myers, James R. and Yorgey, Brian
Abstract:: Overview of Project and Varietal Development: Funding for 2013-14 was reduced substantially which resulted in a scaling back of the objectives. We conducted two yield and quality evaluation trials. However, the evaluation of commercial entries was funded entirely by fees from industry. We also grew out approximately 1300 breeding lines...

Creator:: Myers, James R. and Yorgey, Brian
Abstract:: Oregon is the second largest producer of processed green beans, and cultivars are needed that are adapted to western Oregon. The types that have traditionally been used are the bush blue lake (BBL) green beans with high yields, excellent processing quality. On the other hand, then need improvement in plant...
