The waving-wand system of broadcast chemical application implemented in swath widths to 40 ft (>12 m) is capable of simulating broadcast deposition patterns for herbicides similar to those delivered by helicopter. Drop sizes vary from center to edge of swaths, which can range from >1,000 to 5,000 microns (μ). Any...
‘Sacajawea’ (OSU 540.130) was developed and evaluated at Oregon State
University, Corvallis, Oregon, and was released in February 2006. Compared
to ‘Barcelona,’ ‘Sacajawea’ is a slightly smaller tree but has a higher yield
efficiency, a higher percent kernel, fewer kernel defects, and smaller nuts. Nuts mature and fall free of...
'Santiamʼ (OSU 509.064) was developed and evaluated at Oregon State
University, Corvallis, Oregon, and it was released in February 2005. This cultivar has complete resistance to eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. Resistance is conferred by a single dominant gene from ʻGasaway.ʼ Compared to ʻBarcelona,...
"'Yamhill' (OSU 542.102) was developed and evaluated by the hazelnut breeding program at Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon, and was released in January 2008. Trees of 'Yamhill' are completely resistant to eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by Anisogramma anomala (Peck) E. Müller. Compared to 'Barcelona', trees of 'Yamhill' are smaller...
