Effect of pruning and training time on yield components and cold hardiness of 'Marion' blackberry

Creator:: Bell, Neil (Neil Charles), 1961-
Abstract:: The effect of primocane removal and training time on yield components and cold hardiness of 'Marion' trailing blackberry was studied. In 1991, primocanes were either not cut, or cut at ground level from plants on a single occasion at one month intervals from late April to late July. Four canes...

Nutrient management of blackberry cultivars grown in organic production systems

Creator:: Fernandez-Salvador, Javier A.
Abstract:: The impact of fertilizer source and cultivar on growth, fruit quality, and yield was evaluated in organic blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus Watson) from 2011-2013 in three studies. In all studies, plants were drip irrigated, and weeds were managed using a woven polypropylene, permeable landscape fabric (weed mat). At a...

Impacts of crop level and vine vigor on vine balance and fruit composition in Oregon Pinot noir

Creator:: Vance, Amanda J.
Abstract:: Vineyard management strategies, including vineyard floor management and crop level management, can be used to influence vine vigor and fruit composition. Two studies were conducted to evaluate the impact of these practices on Pinot Noir in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Managing crop levels is common in cool climate vineyard production though...
