  • Conditioning bunchgrass on elk winter range

    Creator:
    Westenskow, Kathy Jo
    Abstract:
    Research was conducted near the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in northeastern Oregon. Effects of defoliating bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum (Pursh) Scribn. and Smith) to increase the quality of regrowth available on elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) winter range were studied from 1988 through 1990. Clipping treatments were implemented to condition...

  • Inelastic stiffness moduli for nail joints between wood studs and plywood sheathing

    Creator:
    Loferski, Joseph R.
    Abstract:
    Defining the inelastic behavior of nail joints is essential in the development of a rational design procedure of wood-stud walls. Prediction equations were developed for the inelastic behavior of joints commonly found in wood-stud walls. The equations relate three elastic moduli that define the average inelastic joint stiffness to the...

  • Enhancement of cold tolerance in tomato plants by genetic engineering of glycinebetaine biosynthesis

    Creator:
    Park, Eung-Jun
    Abstract:
    Tomato [Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.] plants are chilling sensitive and do not naturally accumulate glycinebetaine (GB), a metabolite that functions as a stress protectant in plants. While GB can increase tolerance of tomato plants to salt and drought stresses, its effect on chilling tolerance has not been examined. To evaluate whether...
