Fallow water retention and wheat growth as affected by tillage method and surface soil compaction

Creator:: Schillinger, William F.
Abstract:: No-tillage winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in a wheat-fallow cropping system has consistently produced lower grain yields than conventionally tilled soils in the semiarid Pacific Northwest. A 2-year study was conducted in a long-term tillage trial at Moro, OR to determine factors responsible for differences in wheat growth and...

An ecological analysis of adolescent females' perseptions of sex : implications for onset of sexual intercourse

Creator:: Rink, Elizabeth
Abstract:: This study explores the intrapersonal and interpersonal ecological factors that influence adolescent females' perceptions of sex and the extent to which their perceptions of sex impact onset of sexual intercourse as they mature. Particular attention is given to how depression influences individual, personal and social factors in an adolescent female's...

The effect of precipitation variation on soil moisture, soil nitrogen, nitrogen response and winter wheat yields in eastern Oregon

Creator:: Glenn, D. M. (David Michael)
Abstract:: The semi-arid regions of the Pacific Northwest are characterized by a high degree of annual temperature and precipitation variation. As a result of this climatic variation, dryland nitrogen fertilizer trials on fallow- ,wheat rotations typically demonstrate a variable response. Wheat growers in the area must not only cope with this...

Involvement of formaldehyde in depressed iron absorption in mink and rats fed Pacific hake (Merluccius productus)

Creator:: Costley, Gary Edward
Abstract:: Inclusion of substantial levels of raw-frozen Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) in diets of ranch-raised mink (Mustela vison) causes a large percentage of animals to develop an abnormal condition termed "cotton fur" (CF), characterized by depressed body weight, microcytic-hypochromic anemia and a failure of under-fur pigmentation. Observations by several groups of...

Response of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars and downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) to metribuzin and ethyl metribuzin

Creator:: Munir, Muhammad
Abstract:: Downy brome (Bromus tectorum. L.), a serious grass weed in eastern Oregon can be partially controlled in wheat by metribuzin [4-amino-6-tertbutyl- 3-(methylthio)-as triazin -5(4H)-one]. However, cultivars of many crops Lave been reported to differ in their level of tolerance to metribuzin. This lack of tolerance has led to the investigation...

Effect of nitrogen and water stresses during tillering and grain- filling in wheat

Creator:: Ashraf, Muhammad, 1952-
Abstract:: The CERES-Wheat Crop Growth and Development model treats temperature, nitrogen and water stresses as limiting factors. For each day the model calculates a stress index for temperature, N and water, compares the magnitude of the indices, and then adjusts the calculated daily potential growth using the index of the most...

Personality characteristics of selected community college dropouts

Creator:: Edelbrock, Gary Ray
Abstract:: The Purpose of the Study The central purpose of this study was to determine if certain personality characteristics differ between community college persisters and those who drop out of school. The following 12 a priori hypotheses involving six Adjective Check List personality scales were tested: 1. Male persisters would have...

Information processing errors in linear feedback control systems

Creator:: Chong, Hoi-yeung
Abstract:: This report is concerned with the analysis of the effect of finite wordlength, channel capacity and source rate in digital feedback control of linear systems. The cases considered are (1) finite wordlength A/D conversion, no feedback delay, ideal ROM (read only memory) controller; (2) finite A/D wordlength (source rate), state...

Ryegrass fluorescence expression during three generations of seed increase and its heritability among half-sib families

Creator:: Floyd, Donald J.
Abstract:: Seedling root fluorescence (SRF) has been used as a test in the USA since 1941 to discriminate Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.) from perennial ryegrass (L. perenne L.). Generally, roots of Italian ryegrass fluorescece when exposed to ultraviolet light, while roots of perennial ryegrass do not. Presence of fluorescent seedlings...
