Delay of anthesis in 'Bartlett' and 'Bosc' pears (Pyrus communis) by evaporative cooling

Creator:: Collins, Margaret Dorothy
Abstract:: The influence of evaporative cooling for delay of 'Bartlett' and 'Bosc' fruit bud development for frost avoidance was investigated. Two mist systems, one in a mature pear orchard and the other in a young pear hedgerow, delayed 'Bartlett' and 'Bosc' bloom up to 15 and 8 days respectively. A low...

An analysis of the effects of Boron and plant growth regulators on flower development in Filbert, Corylus avellana L.

Creator:: Kelley, John Roberts
Abstract:: Three distinct stages of flower cluster abscission were identified prior to fertilization: flowers which did not begin development (stage 1), flowers which had begun development (stage II) and clusters which had begun to form distinct nuts (stage III). Abscission of stages I and II coincided with a rapid increase in...

The chemical curing of Oregon Danvers onions

Creator:: Bubl, Charles Edward
Abstract:: Pre-harvest foliar desiccation of Yellow Globe Danvers onions was investigated as a means to improve harvest procedure and to reduce storage losses. Foliar desiccation tended to increase storage disease and sprouting incidence versus the untreated controls. Paraquat approximately doubled storage disease in both years. Stoddard solvent and ethephon increased disease...

Frost hardiness of buds, flowers and fruit of pear (Pyrus communis L.)

Creator:: Strang, John George
Abstract:: Spring frost damage to pears in the Pacific Northwest frequently results in substantial crop losses. This research was undertaken to investigate the effects of frost on pear buds, flowers, and fruit through controlled freezing tests and field studies in order to better understand the frost phenomenon and refine frost protection...

Harvest maturity indices of sweet cherries for brining

Creator:: Tvergyak, Paul J.
Abstract:: Oregon's Willamette Valley sweet cherry growers have developed a market for large, high quality, stem-on brining cherries. The maturity indices pull force (PF), percent soluble solids (SS), and weight (Wt) were chosen as being the most probable indicators of maturity. The rate of change of PF during the harvest period...

Ethylene production, vegetative maturity, and winter dormancy in red-osier dogwood

Creator:: Seibel, Janice Rose
Abstract:: The stage of dormancy development at which deciduous nursery stock can be safely defoliated for harvest was investigated in red-osier dogwood (Cornus stolonifera Michx.). This stage, previously called "vegetative maturity," was found to correspond to the onset of winter dormancy in red-osier dogwood. A reduction in ethylene production by excised...
