Abstract:: Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus (Thunb.) Matsum. & Nakai var. Crimson Sweet) was seeded in a commercial peat mix in multicell containers (72 cells-tray⁻¹, 40 cm³-cell⁻¹) in July 1989 and April 1990. In 1989, the medium was amended with CaC0₃ at 10% w:v. In 1990, no CaC0₃ amendment was made. Watermelon seedling...

Creator:: Blackburn, Bryan (Bryan Keith), 1955-
Abstract:: Thesis research focused on: 1) Water and fertilizer gradients within the plant root zone, and effects of chemical and physical gradients on Trichoderma harzianum populations. 2) Regulation of root growth physically with permeable fabric containers and chemically with copper compounds. 3) Effects of copper coatings for fabric containers on Glomus...

Creator:: Creasy, Glen L.
Abstract:: Death of flower parts near bloom due to inflorescence necrosis (IN) is associated with high ammonium (NH₄⁺) concentration in flower clusters, shade, cool wet weather preceding bloom, and excessive vigor. Faults in NH₄⁺ assimilation are suspected to cause a rise in NH₄⁺ concentration to toxic levels in flower cluster but...

Creator:: Dolcet-Sanjuan, Ramon J.
Abstract:: Appropriate micropropagation regimes were developed for four Pyrus species (P. amygdaliformis Vill., P. betulaefolia Bunge, P. calleryana Dcne., and P. communis L.) and Cydonia oblonga L. Shoot multiplication was optimal at 10 or 20μM N⁶⁻ benzyladenine (BA) and high light intensity (135μm⁻²s⁻1). Root formation of the Pyrus species was stimulated...

Creator:: Kobayashi, Kent
Abstract:: Effects of temperature and growth stage on vegetative bud development and stem hardiness of red-osier dogwood during winter dormancy were investigated. Results were related to a degree growth stage model and were used to develop models to predict growth stages, to quantify development, and to predict hardiness. Maximum rest development...

Creator:: Siller-Cepeda, Jorge H.
Abstract:: A rapid and sensitive HPLC method for quantifying both the reduced and oxidized forms of glutathione simultaneously in woody plant tissues was developed. This method was applicable to a variety of woody plant species and different tissues. Total glutathione content in the bark tissue of seven of the woody plant...

Abstract:: Volatile compounds of eight pear varieties were isolated and identified by GC/MS. A total of 112 components were identified from headspace of intact fruits, including 47 compounds reported for the first time in pear. The volatile profiles of these pear varieties were characterized by esters, alcohols, hydrocarbons, aldehydes and ketones....
