Water relations, stomatal conductance, and abscisic acid content of container-grown apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) plants in response to sorbitol-induced osmotic stress

Creator:: Guak, Sunghee
Abstract:: Sorbitol-induced osmotic stress (SIOS) to the root was found to be effective in reducing transpirational water loss in plants during water stress. Mechanisms of SIOS in stomatal control were investigated in containerized apples (Malus domestica Borkh. 'Gala'/M26) when leaf water potential (Ψw), osmotic potential (Ψs), turgor potential (Ψp), stomatal conductance...

Cryopreservation of in vitro-grown apical meristems

Creator:: Chang, Yongjian
Abstract:: Alternating temperature (22°C / -1°C) pretreatments were effective for increasing cold hardiness and recovery of cryopreserved meristems. Combining low temperature pretreatment with abscisic acid (ABA) or sucrose treatments reduced the time required for optimal cold hardiness of meristems. Desiccation tolerance was directly correlated with increased cold hardiness and recovery of...

Influence of irrigation and plant population on yield parameters, flower and pod abscission, and photosynthate distribution in snap beans, Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Creator:: Mauk, Craighton Stiles
Abstract:: During 2 seasons effects of high and low irrigation (water applied at -0.6 and -2.5 bars soil water potential, respectively) and density were evaluated on yield parameters and flower/pod development at mainstem nodes 2 and 6 (terminal) of 'Oregon 1604', a determinate snap bean. High and low plant densities were...

Relationships between endogenous phenolic compounds of rhododendron tissues and organs and cold hardiness development

Creator:: Chalker-Scott, Linda
Abstract:: The leaching of water soluble phenolic compounds from cold stressed Rhododendron leaves was found to be a reliable indicator of tissue damage. In sublethally stressed leaf tissues, more and novel phenolic compounds appeared and were hypothesized to be precursors of cell wall components such as lignin and suberin. Subsequent radiolabeling...

Characteristics of ice nucleation in potato leaves

Creator:: Johnson, Lori K.
Abstract:: The innate ability of potato leaf tissue to initiate freezing was studied. Two potato species, the non-hardy cultivated potato Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Russet Burbank, and Solanum acaule Bitt. a hardy species from South America, were studied. Two treatments, low (cold) and high (warm) temperatures were included to study the...

Water partitioning and respiration activity of dormant grape buds

Creator:: Gardea, Alfonso A.
Abstract:: Dormancy of 'Pinot Noir' grapevines was characterized. Primary buds required ca 300 cumulative chilling hours (CCH) to initiate the transition from endodormancy to ecodormancy, which occurred in mid November. Additional chilling, up to 1000 CCH, improved budbreak. Changes in bud water content were estimated by gravimetric and spectroscopic methods. Total,...

Irrigation and plant density effects on head rot and yield of broccoli

Creator:: Ludy, Robin L.
Abstract:: Effects of amount of applied water and frequency of irrigation on head rot and yield of three broccoli cultivars were evaluated in 1987 and 1988. Two irrigation frequencies were established with a line-source sprinkler system for 5.5 weeks during heading. The low-frequency experiment was watered once per week and the...
