Winter wheat is commonly grown in rotation with leguminous and non-leguminous crops in the Willamette Valley. For agronomic, economic, and environmental reasons it is important to understand the influence of previous crops on availability of N and other nutrients. Objectives of this study were: (1) to evaluate the effects of...
A partially automated radio-tracking system with semi-continuous
azimuth data collection and XYLOG5 and MAP computer programs for azimuth
data analysis was used for studies of California quail (Callipepla
californica) at the E.E. Wilson Wildlife Area, Oregon, in 1988 and 1989.
Movements of 58 hens were monitored daily to determine nest...
Thirteen New World populations of Megachile rotundata and M. apicalis and
two Old World populations of M. rotundata were analyzed at 23 enzyme loci using
cellulose acetate electrophoresis. Conventional and G- or C-banded karyotypes were
also examined in these populations. The principal findings are (1) No differences
were found in...
The lack of information regarding the inheritance of the duration and rate of
grain filling, and the possible relationship between grain fill and grain protein
content in wheat prompted this study.
Early maturing Chinese cultivars, 'AI Feng 2' and 'CB 83-52', and late
maturing cultivars adapted to Oregon, 'Stephens' and...
