Characterization and Cultivar Susceptibility Assessment of Bacterial Blight in Hazelnut Caused by Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina

Creator:: Webber, John B., III
Abstract:: Bacterial blight (Xanthomonas arboricola pv. corylina) (Xac) of hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) was described first in Oregon in 1915 and is now recognized as a damaging disease of young hazelnut trees worldwide. Stressed hazelnut trees in conditions such as planting on marginal sites, and trees between 1 and 4-years-old are...

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...

Role of surfactants in foliar uptake of plant growth regulators

Creator:: Tan, Siyuan
Abstract:: Penetration of ¹⁴C-labeled plant growth regulators into the surface of apple (Malus pumila M.) leaves pre-soaked in 10 ml I⁻¹ solutions of surfactant was measured by detecting changes in radioactivity of the solution in glass cylinders sealed to the astomatal, adaxial surface of the leaf discs. Penetration of 2,4-D [(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)acetic...

Cover crop effects on root rot of sweet corn and soil properties

Creator:: Miyazoe, Mikio
Abstract:: Root rot of sweet corn in western Oregon and Washington is a significant disease that can reduce yield of intolerant cultivars of processed sweet corn by fifty percent. Root rot is caused by a complex of soilborne organisms, including Drechslera sp., Phoma terrestris, and Pythium arrhenomanes. Processors have adopted tolerant...

Ethylene production, vegetative maturity, and winter dormancy in red-osier dogwood

Creator:: Seibel, Janice Rose
Abstract:: The stage of dormancy development at which deciduous nursery stock can be safely defoliated for harvest was investigated in red-osier dogwood (Cornus stolonifera Michx.). This stage, previously called "vegetative maturity," was found to correspond to the onset of winter dormancy in red-osier dogwood. A reduction in ethylene production by excised...

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...

Effect of row cover and supplemental Ca fertilization on blossom-end rot in bell pepper (Capsicum annuum var. annuum, Grossom Group)

Creator:: Alexander, Shara E.
Abstract:: A 2-year trial was conducted at Oregon State University's Hermiston Agricultural Research and Extension Center to examine the effects of spunbonded row cover and supplemental calcium fertilization on blossom-end rot in two varieties of bell pepper. Blossom-end rot is a common cause of bell pepper yield losses, especially at the...
