Nitrogen use in container-grown woody ornamentals

Creator:: Sandrock, David Ray, 1971-
Abstract:: Lasting, effective solutions to nitrogen (N) loss from container nurseries must address layers of complexity ranging in scale from whole system nursery management to gene expression. Group-based On-site Active Learning (GOAL) was developed to aid nursery managers and related stakeholders (e.g. neighbors, policy makers, regulating agencies, researchers) in developing a...

Life-Cycle and Playability Analysis of Natural Turfgrass and Synthetic Infill Playing Surfaces Under Field Conditions

Creator:: Daviscourt Brian L.
Abstract:: The perception of a long-term cost advantage of synthetic infill turf systems relative to natural grass systems has contributed to a rise in their popularity in the USA. However, few comprehensive cost assessments of natural grass and synthetic infill systems exist. There are also no studies looking at interactions between...

Evaluation of natural and synthetic preemergence herbicides used in ornamental landscapes

Creator:: Hilgert, Christopher
Abstract:: A series of field experiments conducted at the Lewis-Brown horticulture farm at Oregon State University evaluated the performance of four preemergence herbicides in simulated ornamental shrub beds. Two natural products, corn gluten meal (CGM) and meadowfoam seedmeal (MFS), were used along with two synthetic products, prodiamine purchased under the trade...

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 –...

Multiple pest suppression with cover crops in strawberry

Creator:: Datta, Braja Bandhu
Abstract:: The experiment was conducted to compare multiple pest (weed, soil arthropod and diseases) suppression by cereal cover crops in 'Selva' and 'Totem' strawberry. In addition, perlite was used to compare improvement of soil and root aeration which might modify strawberry black root rot complex. Small-seeded summer annual weeds were suppressed...

Girdling and shading effects on inflorescence necrosis and rachis composition of pinot noir grapevine

Creator:: Ibacache, Antonio E.
Abstract:: There are several grape disorders that reduce fruit set. One, millerandage, is from poor fertilization to produce "hen and chicken" or small seedless berries; while another, Coulure, is the failure of grape flowers to develop into berries. A third one, inflorescence necrosis (INec), is a disorder that should be in...

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...

Development, detection and elimination of Verticillium dahliae in mint shoot cultures and effects of bacterial cultures and bacterization on the growth and disease development

Creator:: Wang, Nan
Abstract:: Roots of greenhouse-grown peppermint (Mentha piperita L.) and spearmint (Mentha spicata L.) plants and in vitro-grown shoot cultures were inoculated with Verticillium dahliae conidial suspensions to study symptom development, detection, and elimination of the V. dahliae. There were significant differences in the symptom expression of control and infected shoot cultures...

Water use characteristics of ten newly established cool-season turfgrass species

Creator:: Blankenship, Tod M.
Abstract:: Water use restrictions are continuing to have an impact on the way turf is managed today and will be managed in the future. The objective of this research was to evaluate the irrigation requirements of ten newly established cool-season turfgrass species maintained under two different mowing height and nitrogen fertility...
