Abstract:: Meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Hartw. ex Benth) seed meal (MSM), a by-product of meadowfoam oil extraction, has a plant defensive compound known as glucosinolate glucolimnanthin (GLN). Myrosinase enzymes present in soil microbes and meadowfoam seeds can convert GLN to glucosinolate breakdown products (GBPs), which demonstrate herbicidal activity and have the potential...

Creator:: McAuliffe, David
Abstract:: Applications of ethofumesate in Oregon have been observed from previous research and from commercial use to be less effective when applied to dry soils, even if subsequent precipitation occurred within a few days. Two field studies were established in the summer of 1979 using sweet corn (Zea mays L. 'Jubilee')...

Abstract:: With the development of new selective herbicides and the frequent change in commercial wheat cultivars, information is needed as to the possible interaction between cultivars and herbicides. The responses of five genotypically diverse wheat cultivars (Bezostaya, Daws, Maris Hobbit, Stephens and Yamhill) to diuron [3-(3,4-dichloropheny1)-1,1- dimethylurea], diclofop methyl 2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenoxy] propanoate...

Creator:: Flores, Maurilio
Abstract:: Marah oreganus, a perennial, belongs to the Cucurbitaceae family and it is commonly known as wild cucumber. In the past, this plant grew along fence rows, but now wild cucumber has become a weed problem in perennial grass seed fields of western Oregon. Several research studies were conducted to examine...

Creator:: Zeghida, Ali
Abstract:: Equipment for strip-till planting is under development in wheat-fallow rotations in the Columbia Basin of Oregon. This involves the absence of tillage during the fallow season. At planting time, the strip-till planter creates a narrow band into which the wheat seed is placed. The area between the rows is undisturbed...

Creator:: Salazar, Luis Carlos
Abstract:: Paraquat (1,11-dimethy1-4,4'-bipyridinium ion) and glyphosate [N (phosphonomethyl)glycine] are herbicides utilized for chemical seedbed preparation in the establishment of grass and legume seed crops. When these herbicides are applied after seeding the crop, seeds which are not protected by a layer of soil could be exposed to the herbicide. Effects of...

Creator:: Hendrickson, Paul E.
Abstract:: Glasshouse and growth-chamber experiments were conducted to evaluate primisulfuron phytotoxicity and the influence of adjuvants on downy brome and Kentucky bluegrass. GR₅₀ (50% growth reduction) values were 0.97 ± 0.57 and 8.07 ± 1.85 g/ha for downy brome and Kentucky bluegrass, respectively. Primisulfuron was applied to downy brome and Kentucky...
