Abstract:: Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) is a prolific annual grassy weed that can be found worldwide in most landscapes. Known for its ability to produce seedhead at low heights (0.32 cm), thrive in over-maintained areas, and germinate anywhere, annual bluegrass is a highly invasive weed. Due to annual bluegrass’ persistence,...

Abstract:: A rootstock trial was established in 1997 at the OSU Woodhall vineyard, located in the Southern Willamette Valley, which included two experiments. The first experiment was a factorial of four varieties grafted on to 9 rootstocks, and also as ungrafted vines (a split-plot design). The second experiment was a randomized...

Abstract:: Experiments focusing on plant growth regulators’ concentrations and combination, mineral salt formulations and TDZ pretreatment formations were conducted to optimize in vitro shoot regeneration from leaf and petiole explants of 'Marion' blackberry. Optimum shoot formation was obtained when stock plants were incubated in TDZ pretreatment medium for three weeks before...

Abstract:: Pre-existing Expressed Sequence Tag (EST) libraries (1,305 sequences) and a newly constructed microsatellite-enriched genomic library (136 clones) from the V. corymbosum cultivar 'Bluecrop' were screened for unique Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR)-containing sequences. Our goal was to develop a set of robust SSR markers for use in managing the National Clonal...
