  • Studies on canker in European filbert caused by Anisogramma anomala

    Creator:
    Postman, Joseph D.
    Abstract:
    Anisogramma anomala causes a stem canker of filberts, Corylus avellana. This disease became a threat to the main U.S. filbert growing region when it was introduced into the Pacific Northwest around 1968. Various methods of artificially inoculating filbert trees and seeds were explored. Less than 1% of potted filbert trees...

  • Factors affecting stand establishment and yield of meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Benth.)

    Creator:
    Nyunt, San
    Abstract:
    Germination of meadowfoam (Limnanthes alba Benth.) seed is inhibited by warm soil temperatures. This has led to recommendations for planting from early to mid-October when soil temperatures are below about 15°C. Objective data on the effects of planting date on stand establishment and yield are not available. These studies were...

  • Studies of napropamide decomposition on the soil surface

    Creator:
    Apley, Kathryn Lynne
    Abstract:
    Napropamide [2-(alpha-naphthoxyl)-N,N-diethylpropionamide], a preemergence herbicide, is widely used in the United States on a variety of tree fruits, nut crops, vegetables, and mint for annual grass and broadleaf weed control. When napropamide has been left on the soil surface without incorporation through irrigation or mechanical means, inconsistent results have been...

  • Paleo-oceanography of the subtropical southeastern Pacific during late Quaternary : a study of radiolaria, opal and quartz contents of deep-sea sediments

    Creator:
    Molina-Cruz, Adolfo
    Abstract:
    Micropaleontological data have been analyzed through mathematical and statistical procedures, in order to: (1) establish the distribution pattern of radiolarian assemblages in the surface sediments, (2) establish the relationship of these assemblages with oceanographic variables, (3) determine the faunal composition down-core with respect to the faunal surface pattern, and (4)...

  • Sulfa residue studies with market turkeys : repletion, depletion and recycling effect from reused litter

    Creator:
    Youssef Hakimi, Ali A.
    Abstract:
    A series of four experiments were conducted to study sulfa residues with market turkeys and to observe the repletion, depletion and possible recycling effect from reused litter. In the first experiment, sulfaquinoxaline (S.Q.) was fed at 0.015% level from 8 to 16 weeks of age. No significant effects were observed...
