The economic effects of ozone on U.S. agriculture : a sector modeling approach

Creator:: Hamilton, Scott A.
Abstract:: Tropospheric ozone is a pollutant which has detrimental effects on crop yields. The level of ambient ozone can be reduced by environmental policy changes and enforcement. The purpose of this study was to estimate the welfare effects of such changes in ambient ozone using recently available plant response data and...

Individual and population responses to abiotic stresses in Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.)

Creator:: Martinez-Ghersa, Maria Alejandra
Abstract:: Plant form is a compromise between resource gathering, reproduction and the tolerance to physical demands of the abiotic and biotic environment. In an agricultural field in addition to the natural factors causing stress, humans also introduce physical and mechanical stresses, and chemical pesticides into the environment. Many of these factors...

The effects of cadmium on the nitrogen fixation system in Alnus rubra

Creator:: Wickliff, Carlos
Abstract:: Alnus rubra (Bong. ) seedlings were grown in sand culture and irrigated with nutrient solution containing CdCl₂ ranging from 5 μg to 100 mg per liter. Treatment of A. rubra seedlings for 4 weeks with 50 and 100 mg CdCl₂ per liter of nitrogen-free nutrient solution decreased in situ nitrogenase...

Aluminum toxicity studies in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Creator:: Martinez-Racines, Cesar P.
Abstract:: A nutrient solution technique developed for wheat was used to determine tolerance of rice cultivars to aluminum (Al) toxicity. Pre-germinated rice seed was placed on top of a screen and allowed to grow on the Al-free solution for 72-96 hours or until the primary root was 2-3 cms long. Seedlings...

Sethoxydim herbicide in red fescue and bentgrass : levels and mechanisms of selectivity

Creator:: Butler, J. Hugh B.
Abstract:: The herbicide rate required to reduce growth by 50% (GR₅₀) of 11 cultivars of red fesue (Festuca rubra L. and F. rubra ssp. commutata) and for four cultivars of bentgrass (Agrostis tenuis Sibth. and A. stolonifera L. var. palustris) to sethoxydim (2-[1-(ethoxyimino) butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one) was determined in greenhouse and laboratory experiments....

The metabolic pathways and physiological effects of atrazine in Douglas-fir seedlings

Creator:: Peterson, Charles Adrian
Abstract:: Herbicides are being used as a tool by forest managers to speed the restocking of sites where tree seedlings face competition from grasses for limited moisture, light and nutrients. Retarded growth or, more commonly, death of the seedlings would occur if a selective herbicide was not used to control competing...

The effects of nitrogen, potassium and chloride on nutrient composition in Russet Burbank potatoes (Solanum tuberosum)

Creator:: Murarka, Ishwar P., 1942-
Abstract:: Three greenhouse experiments were designed to measure the effects of N, K and Cl on the nutrient uptake by Russet Burbank potatoes (Solanum tuberosum). A Deschutes sandy loam soil from Powell Butte area in Central Oregon, low in potassium, was used to study these effects. Nitrogen applications produced significant increases...

Effects of irrigation and nitrogen on cauliflower development, yield and quality

Creator:: Bratsch, Anthony D.
Abstract:: Field experiments were conducted with cauliflower (Brassica oleracea var. botrytis cv. Snowball Y ) to determine crop development, yield, quality and maturity response to various seasonal water levels, and to specific water stress timing in relation to curd initiation. The effects of nitrogen rate, timing, and source and the application...
