  • Growth in herbaceous perennials

    Creator:
    Nakajima, Rie
    Abstract:
    Several studies of herbaceous perennials have addressed the effects of environmental factors during and after production, inherent cold hardiness, and post-harvest handling procedures to enhance flowering and growth during establishment. The regrowth of both woody and herbaceous forage plants following establishment is reported to be directly related to reserve-nitrogen content....

  • Nitrogen use and management in red raspberry

    Creator:
    Rempel, Hannah Gascho
    Abstract:
    The effects of ¹⁵N-labeled fertilizer applied to mature summer-bearing red raspberry (Rubus idaeus L.) plants were measured over two years. Four nitrogen (N) treatments were applied singularly at 0, 40, or 80 kg·ha⁻¹ of N in early spring (budbreak), or split with 40 kg·ha⁻¹ of N (unlabeled) applied at budbreak...

  • Overexpression of antioxidant genes in transgenic tomato tolerant against multiple stresses

    Creator:
    Wang, Yueju
    Abstract:
    The effect of increased manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) and cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (cAPX) on various abiotic stresses was studied using transgenic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants. Transformants were selected in vitro based on kanamycin resistance, confirmed by PCR and northern blot analyses. Northern blots showed an enhanced gene expression of Mn-SOD...

  • Nitrogen, defoliation and new growth in almond (Prunus dulcis (Mill) D.A. Webb) nursery plants

    Creator:
    Bi, Guihong
    Abstract:
    The relationships between nitrogen (N), defoliation, and plant growth in nursery plants were studied using almond {Prunus dulcis (Mill) D. A. Webb) trees. In several experiments the effects of N source and availability on tree growth, N uptake, N remobilization, and nonstructural carbohydrates (TNC) were investigated to determine the most...
