Annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.) emergence under different residue management practices in perennial ryegrass and determination of resistant and susceptible annual bluegrass germination under controlled temperature and moisture

Creator:: Schuster, Matthew D.
Abstract:: With the loss of field burning the amount of crop residue that remains in perennial ryegrass fields has increased. As the amount of crop residue remaining in the field increases so does annual bluegrass. This has resulted in the increased use of herbicides to control annual bluegrass. However, this increased...

Multiple pest suppression with cover crops in strawberry

Creator:: Datta, Braja Bandhu
Abstract:: The experiment was conducted to compare multiple pest (weed, soil arthropod and diseases) suppression by cereal cover crops in 'Selva' and 'Totem' strawberry. In addition, perlite was used to compare improvement of soil and root aeration which might modify strawberry black root rot complex. Small-seeded summer annual weeds were suppressed...

Seedborne Phytophthora infestans : effect of pathogen clonal lineage and potato cultivar on seed transmission of late blight and plant growth responses

Creator:: Partipilo, Heather M.
Abstract:: Seed piece to plant transmission of the potato late blight pathogen, Phytophthora infestans, occurred with isolates of the clonal lineages US-8 in Oregon and US-11 in Washington in field trials. Average transmission rate across potato cultivars was 0.5 and 2.4% with US-8, and 0.8 and 1.0% with US-11 in 1999...

Inheritance of resistance to the lentil strain of pea seedborne mosaic virus in Pisum sativum L.

Creator:: Kasimor, Kathryn T.
Abstract:: The inheritance mode of pea-resistance to the Lentil Strain of Pea Seedborne Mosaic Virus (PSbMV-L) was studied. In addition, commercial pea cultivars, Plant Introduction (P.I.) lines and Oregon State University (OSU) breeding lines were tested for susceptibility to this virus. These lines were also tested for their reaction to Bean...

Impact of insects on seed production in a Douglas-fir seed orchard in Oregon

Creator:: Dombrosky, Scott A.
Abstract:: The impact of various factors on seed production in a Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) seed orchard in western Oregon was examined by monitoring the fate of seeds in thirty cones, stratified into three crown levels, on each of ten trees during the 1984 growing season. Cones were examined monthly between April...

Lodging control and yield enhancement in Morex spring barley with paclobutrazol treatment

Creator:: Morrison, Laura A.
Abstract:: Lodging in cereals can cause significant decreases in yield. It is both a problem in susceptible cereal cultivars with a tall-stemmed, weak-strawed growing habit and in lodging-resistant cereal cultivars when they are grown under high-nitrogen, high-moisture regimes. Plant growth regulators (PGR's) are chemical growth retardants that offer a method of...

Status, distribution and seasonal variation of filbert aphid resistance to selected insecticides in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Katundu, Juma
Abstract:: Levels of resistance to six selected insecticides of eleven field populations of the filbert aphid Mvzocallis coryli (Goetze) were determined by using the leaf-dip residue technique. Test insecticides included compounds widely used in commercial filbert orchards, namely, carbaryl, diazinon, endosulfan, phosalone, fenvalerate and oxydemetonmethyl. Aphid samples were collected within a...

Effects of growth-regulating treatments on eradication of PVX and PVS in potato shoot-tip culture

Creator:: Gallardo-Ramirez, Mirian
Abstract:: Four experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of growth-promoting treatments on potato sprouts and plantlets grown in vitro, and to determine the relationships between growth rate and eradication of PVX and PVS through shoot-tip culture. The approach consisted of exposing plant material to potential growth-regulating treatments, selecting the more...

On-farm inquiry and assessment of tillage and cover cropping for white mold control in snap bean production

Creator:: Harrison, Elizabeth Langham.
Abstract:: Cultural practices in snap bean production were evaluated at the Oregon State University Vegetable Research Farm Corvallis, Oregon. In addition, decision-making in snap bean production was assessed on five farms in the Coburg-Junction City-Harrisburg regions of the Willamette Valley, Oregon. A field experiment with cover crop and tillage techniques was...
