Response of strawberry plants to manganese nutrition

Creator:: Sabharwal, Sudarshan Lal
Abstract:: The effects of manganese nutrition on growth, mineral composition, carbohydrate and nitrogen metabolism, IAA oxidase and phenols of 'Northwest' strawberry plants are reported. Growth and mineral composition response were investigated in sand culture and Hoagland's solution 2 modified to contain 0.0, 0.5, 2.5, 12.5, 25.0, 62.5 and 125.0 ppm substrate...

Nitrogen fertigation practices to optimize growth and yield of northern highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Vargas, Oscar L.
Abstract:: Northern highbush blueberry is a long-lived perennial crop that is well adapted to low soil pH conditions. The plants are often shallow rooted and absorb primarily the ammonium (NH₄) form of nitrogen (N) rather than nitrate-N (NO₃-N). Traditionally, commercial blueberry fields have been irrigated with overhead sprinklers and fertilized using...

Nitrogen partitioning and remobilization in field-grown apple trees

Creator:: Khemira, Habib
Abstract:: Uptake and cycling of nitrogen (N) in mature trees are not well understood. Fertilizer-N uptake, partitioning, and use-efficiency were studied in standard strain 'Topred Delicious' and spur strain 'Redspur Delicious' mature apple trees {Malus domestica Borck) on 'Malling 7A' (M.7A) rootstocks. The treatments consisted of a ground application in spring,...

Overexpression of antioxidant genes in transgenic tomato tolerant against multiple stresses

Creator:: Wang, Yueju
Abstract:: The effect of increased manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) and cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (cAPX) on various abiotic stresses was studied using transgenic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants. Transformants were selected in vitro based on kanamycin resistance, confirmed by PCR and northern blot analyses. Northern blots showed an enhanced gene expression of Mn-SOD...

Irrigation and plant density effects on head rot and yield of broccoli

Creator:: Ludy, Robin L.
Abstract:: Effects of amount of applied water and frequency of irrigation on head rot and yield of three broccoli cultivars were evaluated in 1987 and 1988. Two irrigation frequencies were established with a line-source sprinkler system for 5.5 weeks during heading. The low-frequency experiment was watered once per week and the...

Eastern filbert blight in hazelnut (Corylus avellana): identification of new resistance sources and high resolution genetic and physical mapping of a resistance gene

Creator:: Sathuvalli, Vidyasagar R.
Abstract:: European hazelnut, Corylus avellana L., is the only economically important nut crop in the family Betulaceae. One of the threats to the hazelnut industry in the Pacific Northwest is the fungal disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the pyrenomycete Anisogramma anomala. Host genetic resistance to EFB identified in the...

Evaluation of Rubus seed characteristics: seed coat morphology, anatomy, germination requirements and dormancy breaking

Creator:: Wada, Sugae
Abstract:: Rubus seed characteristics; seed coat morphology, anatomy, germination requirements and dormancy were studied in order to define protocols for breaking seed dormancy. Morphological analysis of the seed coat (testa) using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) included 56 seed accessions of 10 subgenera preserved in the collections of the US Department of...

Water and Soil Management Practices to Enhance Plant Growth, Berry Development, and Fruit Quality of Northern Highbush Blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.)

Creator:: Almutairi, Khalid F.
Abstract:: Drought and mandatory water restrictions are limiting the availability of irrigation water in many important blueberry growing regions and new strategies are needed to maintain yield and fruit quality with less water. Three potential options for reducing water use, including deficit irrigation, irrigation cut-offs, and crop thinning, were evaluated for...
