Changes in developing strawberry fruit : I. Cell division and enlargement ; and II. Biosynthesis of anthocyanins and other phenolics and activity of associated enzymes

Creator:: Cheng, Guiwen
Abstract:: Size and color are important visual quantity attributes of the fruit of strawberry (Fmgaria x ananassa Duch.). Strawberry cultivars produce fruit of a characteristic size and color, the later being the result of accumulation of particular anthocyanins. This research sought to determine the basis for genotypic differences in fruit size...

Physiology of ripening in pears

Creator:: Wang, Chien Yi
Abstract:: Investigations were conducted to study in detail some biochemical and physiological aspects of ripening in pears. Anjou pears picked at different degrees of maturity were treated with Ethrel (2-chloroethane phosphonic acid), 4000 ppm, and ethylene, 500 ppm, for different lengths of time. Respiration rate was measured twice daily and changes...

A Study of Urban Vegetable Garden and their Soils in Corvallis and Portland, OR

Creator:: Nelson, Michael, II
Abstract:: Urban agriculture (UA) is defined as the production of food crops or livestock within urban areas. Despite its popularity in the United States, research into UA systems suffers from a general underrepresentation of commercial urban systems. As a result, urban growers often have unique technological needs that are unmet by...

Microsatellite marker development and molecular characterization in highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) and Vaccinium species

Creator:: Boches, Peter
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...

Vineyard floor vegetation management and mineral nutrient competition in grapes

Creator:: Tan, Siyuan
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted on wine grapes 'Chardonnay' and 'Gewurtztraminer' (Vitis vinifera L.) in 1986 and 1987 to investigate the performance of grapes in competition with perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) 'Manhattan 11' sod, the competition between sod and grapes for nutrients and moisture and the effects of nitrogen fertilization...

Effect of maturity and storage on quality of "Gala," "Braeburn," and "Fuji" apples

Creator:: Plotto, Anne
Abstract:: In apples, the rapid changes occurring in fruit metabolism when approaching maturity affect their quality at harvest and after storage. The interest in the newly introduced cultivars, 'Gala', 'Braeburn' and 'Fuji' has initiated the following study on maturity indices and storage in the conditions of the Pacific Northwest. 'Gala', 'Braeburn'...

Nitrogen dynamics in field grown comice pears

Creator:: Sanchez, Enrique E.
Abstract:: The dynamics of N was studied in field grown Comice/Provence quince BA29 pears in Medford, Oregon. Total tree biomass, N content, and ¹⁵N evaluations suggest that young pears require little N (48 kg N ha⁻¹ yr⁻¹). About 45% of total tree N present in dormant trees was remobilized into new...
