Ectopic overexpression of Arabidopsis CBF genes enhances freezing tolerance of two potato species

Creator:: Pino, María-Teresa
Abstract:: Solanum species differ in their degree of frost tolerance and cold acclimation capacity. Cultivated potato species of Solanum tuberosum L. are frost-sensitive, incapable of cold acclimation, and have a maximum freezing tolerance of –3°C. Solanum commersonii Dun is frost-tolerant and can survive to –5ºC pre-acclimation and –10ºC post-acclimation. Breeding attempts...

Effect of temperature and zinc on development of tobacco mosaic virus in resistant and susceptible tomatoes

Creator:: Lopez-Garcia, Justo
Abstract:: An investigation of the effects of temperature and of zinc on development of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) in resistant and susceptible varieties of tomatoes was conducted under greenhouse conditions. The study included two experiments, one run during late winter and early spring, and the other during late spring and summer,...

Nitrogen and environmental factors influence bark storage protein gene expression in poplar

Creator:: Banados, Maria Pilar
Abstract:: In poplar (Populus spp.) a 32-kilodalton bark storage protein (BSP) accumulates during the fall and winter, and is thought to be a major storage form of overwintering nitrogen. BSP is induced by short-day (SD) photoperiod, and under natural conditions BSP accumulation coincides with the induction of dormancy. Because BSP accumulates...

Seed and embryo development in pod culture of Phaseolus vulgaris and P. vulgaris x P. acutifolius

Creator:: Sabja, Ana Maria
Abstract:: Phaseolus vulgaris, the common bean, is susceptible to many bacterial, fungal and viral diseases. However, resistance to several diseases has been identified in related Phaseolus species, P. coccineus, P. acutifolius and P. lunatus. Thus, interspecific hybridization could result in transfer of beneficial characteristics. One of the problems encountered in interspecific...

Fruit color development in red pears

Creator:: Dussi Dehais, Maria Claudi
Abstract:: A fruit color descriptive study was conducted on 'Max' and 'Sensation' Red Bartlett, 'Columbia' and 'Gebhard' Red Anjou, 'Rogue Red', 'Rosired', 'Red Clapp' and 'Cascade' red pear varieties. A parallel comparative study was done to test differences between related red strains. 'Max' was compared with 'Sensation' in three different growing...

Improving initiation and mineral nutrition for hazelnut (Corylus avellana) micropropagation

Creator:: Hand, Charles R.
Abstract:: Corylus avellana L. is a global commodity and a valuable crop for the U.S. Pacific Northwest. A tremendous amount of work has been put into the development of healthy disease free, high yielding and tasty hazelnuts for the in-shell and confectionary markets. Clonal propagation is required to provide nursery trees...

Phenotyping Ornamental Plants: Case Studies in Fruit Quality Attributes from Vaccinium ovatum and Disease Resistance of Cotoneaster spp.

Creator:: Neill, Kristin E.
Abstract:: Landscape plants are highly diverse and nursery producers often grow thousands of taxa to satisfy the varied needs and aesthetic tastes of consumers. Related to this diversity, ornamental plant breeders must be nimble and diverse in their approach. Two seemingly disparate studies were conducted to investigate improving ornamental shrubs –...

Genome sizing and fire blight resistance screening in Cotoneaster

Creator:: Rothleutner, Joseph J.
Abstract:: Cotoneaster is an ornamental shrub valued for showy flowers, berries and architecture as well as the ability tolerate adverse conditions under which other taxa fail. Cotoneaster is a highly diverse genus of over 400 species, of which few are available in the US nursery trade. Some species commercially available have...

An analysis of the effects of Boron and plant growth regulators on flower development in Filbert, Corylus avellana L.

Creator:: Kelley, John Roberts
Abstract:: Three distinct stages of flower cluster abscission were identified prior to fertilization: flowers which did not begin development (stage 1), flowers which had begun development (stage II) and clusters which had begun to form distinct nuts (stage III). Abscission of stages I and II coincided with a rapid increase in...

Identification and development of PCR-based markers linked to eastern filbert blight resistance in hazelnut

Creator:: Davis, Joel W.
Abstract:: Using bulked segregant analysis, five RAPD markers were identified that were linked in coupling to a gene conferring complete resistance to eastern filbert blight caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Muller in hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). Two modified backcross populations were inoculated and scored for resistance to the pathogen and...
