Determining novel control methods for cabbage maggot (Delia radicum) in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Dugger, Chloe D.
Abstract:: Cabbage maggot, Delia radicum (Diptera: Anthomyiidae) impacts the production of Brassicaceae crops worldwide. The larva feed on the roots of crops causing reductions in yields due to impaired root function and unmarketability of crops. Chemical and cultural management programs are commonly used to control cabbage maggot with varying rates of...

Development of a multi-parent advanced generation inter-cross (MAGIC) population and analysis of a nested association mapping (NAM) population for improvement of genetic resistance to white mold in snap bean

Creator:: Ağır, Ahmet R.
Abstract:: Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) comes in a huge assortment of fresh and dried varieties, including snap beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans. Together, these and other market classes provide a third of the daily dietary protein in some cultures, particularly in Africa, Asia, and developing nations in the Americas....

Governing By Nature

Creator:: Rhodes, Mericos H.
Abstract:: The choice of what to eat is political, and food systems shape and are shaped by political and economic power. During the last several hundred years, agricultural and food power has been consolidated to an unprecedented degree, and this consolidation continues today. This paper will describe this process as “Governing...

Optimization of Agrochemical Application Technologies, Strategies and Chemical Control of Spotted-wing Drosophila, Drosophila suzukii (Matsumura), Diptera: Drosophilidae as a Model Organism and Identification of Trisiloxane and Silane Surfactants in Agricultural Spray Adjuvants and Reference Materials

Creator:: Mermer, Serhan
Abstract:: Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae) is an insect of global concern that causes serious damage to soft-skinned fruits. D. suzukii is widespread in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia and is listed as an invasive pest with strict quarantine protocols governing import and export. Given the damage caused by D....

Behavior of Drosophila suzukii in Relation to Abiotic, Biotic, and Nutrient Factors

Creator:: Park, Kyoo Rok
Abstract:: Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae), is a serious pest in soft and stone fruit industries worldwide. The unique serrated ovipositor of female Drosophila suzukii allowed the species to reproduce in intact, ripening fruit before the harvest. Current control methods rely heavily on insecticide application, only becoming less profitable due to the...

Alternative Controls for Stephanitis pyrioides in the Pacific Northwest.

Creator:: Graham, Katerina V.
Abstract:: The azalea lace bug (Stephanitis pyrioides Scott) is a global pest of rhododendrons and azaleas (Rhododendron spp.). It is originally from Asia, has been established in the eastern U.S. for the past century, and was recently detected in the Pacific Northwest in 2008-2009. Stephanitis pyrioides feeds on the underside of...

The Cosmetic Stay-Green Trait in Snap Bean and the Event Cascade that Reduces Seed Germination and Emergence

Creator:: Cirak, Melike
Abstract:: The persistent color (pc) trait in snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) belongs to a member of the cosmetic stay-green gene family. It is considered very desirable by snap bean breeders for its impacts on pod quality. Persistent color imparts a uniform dark-green color to pods and expresses in seeds as...

Predictions and Practices for Reducing Heat Damage in Northern Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Yang, Fan-Hsuan
Abstract:: Heat-related fruit damage is a common problem in the northern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L). This is particularly true in regions such as the northwestern United States, where summers are warm and dry, and daytime temperature regularly exceeds 32 oC. Millions of dollars of fruit damage are reported in blueberries...

Sensory Analysis and Genetic Mapping of Green Bean Flavor

Creator:: Wallace, Lyle T.
Abstract:: Green bean flavor has been studied since the 1960’s to better understand Blue Lake flavor in processed green beans in Oregon. Research by Stevens and colleagues showed that Blue Lake flavor could be reconstituted in a bland bean by adding 0.4ppm of 1-octen-3-ol and 1.6ppm of 3-hexen-1-ol. These two volatile...

Nutrient Profile and Nursery Feeding Damage of Halyomorpha halys (Hempitera: Pentatomidae)

Creator:: Skillman, Victoria P.
Abstract:: Halyomorpha halys Stål, brown marmorated stink bug or BMSB, is now present in 43 US states. A native of eastern Asia, this pest can feed on ~200 different plant species damaging bark, leaves, buds, stems, and fruits. Many of these plant species include wild plants, ornamentals, and agricultural crops. BMSB...
