The mycorrhizal associations of western hemlock

Creator:: Kropp, Bradley Ray
Abstract:: Two objectives of this research were to identify fungi which are mycorrhizal with western hemlock and to examine the ecology of hemlock mycorrhizal fungi indigenous to outplanting sites. Another objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of mycorrhizal inoculation in improving the performance of outplanted hemlock seedlings. A list of over...

Ectomycorrhizal inoculation of Douglas-fir nursery stock with commercially produced inoculum

Creator:: Hung, Ling-ling L.
Abstract:: Nine species of ectomycorrhizal fungi were grown in liquid media over a pH range of 2-7. Species fell into five major groups: (1) growth significantly best only at the optimal pH, (2) growth increased with increase of pH, (3) significantly best growth spans three pH units, (4) spans four pH...

Use of nondestructive spectroscopy to assess chlorophyll and nitrogen in fresh leaves

Creator:: Ding, Pinghai
Abstract:: Four aspects of factors influencing the accuracy of nondestructive chlorophyll (Chl) and nitrogen (N) measurement in fresh leaves were studied: (1) optimum wavelength (OW) identification; (2) indices development and evaluation; (3) influence of leaf properties; and (4) influence of meter parameters and sampling technique. Results were used to develop indices...

Inoculum potential of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in two Costa Rican soils with different vegetation covers

Creator:: Fischer, Christine R.
Abstract:: Mycorrhizae are important for plant growth, particularly in nutritionally poor soils. Vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizae (VAM) are the primary form of mycorrhizae found in tropical plants, and their persistence in the soil as colonizing fungal propagules following deforestation cannot be directly measured. Utilizing the "most probable number" (MPN) method for estimating infective...

Potential of Trichoderma sp. for inhibition of Botrytis cinerea and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on snap beans

Creator:: Nelson, Mark E.
Abstract:: Isolates of Trichoderma spp. collected from snap bean foliage were tested for inhibition of grey mold of snap beans caused by Botrytis cinerea. In a detached blossom-pod assay an isolate of Trichoderma hamatum reduced pod rot by 94% compared to the nontreated check. Control was comparable to that obtained with...

Taxomony and mycorrhizal ecology of the desert truffles in the genus Terfezia

Creator:: Alsheikh, Abdulmagid M.
Abstract:: Mycorrhizal fungi in arid and semiarid rangelands have received little study in southwest Asia and north Africa, although they are important in food production and rangeland productivity. The desert truffles of the genera Terfezia and Tirmania form fruiting-bodies and mycorrhizae with rangeland plants. This thesis treats the taxonomy and the...

Influence of ethylene treatments or ethephon dips on bulbous iris forcing

Creator:: Cascante Herrera, Xenia
Abstract:: A series of 3 experiments was conducted from 1984 to 1986 to determine the influence of ethylene gas treatments and ethephon [(2-chloroethyl) phosphonic acid] dips, in combination with several heat curing durations, on the performance of greenhouse-forced Blue Ribbon and Ideal iris. In the first study which examined the effects...

Nitrogen, defoliation and new growth in almond (Prunus dulcis (Mill) D.A. Webb) nursery plants

Creator:: Bi, Guihong
Abstract:: The relationships between nitrogen (N), defoliation, and plant growth in nursery plants were studied using almond {Prunus dulcis (Mill) D. A. Webb) trees. In several experiments the effects of N source and availability on tree growth, N uptake, N remobilization, and nonstructural carbohydrates (TNC) were investigated to determine the most...
