This study compared leaf mold, bark, automobile waste and the
combination of half leaf on the top and half bark on the bottom as
growing media for young apple nursery stock. Although the chemical
and physical analysis of leaf mold was superior to the bark, trees
in leaf mold showed...
Sinks, plant organs which depend on the import of assimilates
for growth, play a central role in determining assimilate distribution
patterns within the plant. The strawberry fruit is a strong
sink for dry matter and its effect on carbon partitioning and
assimilation in the plant as well as the mechanism...
Variation in growth rate of Dover sole (Microstomous pacificus) off Astoria and Brookings, and English sole (Parophrys vetulus) growth off Astoria and Coos Bay, Oregon was studied using the distance between annuli on scales and interoperculum bones indicating growth rate for Dover sole
and English sole respectively. The age at...
Cranberry plants require proper amounts of certain chemical elements from air, water, and soil to ensure adequate vegetative growth and fruit production. When levels of these nutrients in the plant are low, growth and yield may be affected.

The relationship between Leaf Area Index (LAI) and current stem-wood
production was examined in selected stands in eastern
Washington. Stands were sampled with an angle gauge (prism). LAI
was estimated from sapwood area; current stem-wood production from
DBH, height, and radial increment.
Maximum LAI attainable on a given site has...
The purpose of this study was to examine the geometry of enclosed
circles in order to predict the probable effects of increment
boring methods used in determining basal area growth. Of specific
concern was the comparison of areas derived from sets of borings
taken from opposite sides of the tree...
