Russet Burbank, Shepody, Frontier Russet, and Ranger Russet potatoes were tested for their response under furrow irrigation to PAM-treated irrigation water. The use of PAM was associated with an increase in US Number One tubers for Russet Burbank and Shepody varieties.
A field study was conducted in 1978 and 1979 at two locations near
Corvallis, Oregon, to determine the silage yield and quality of 13 fallsown
cereal varieties at two nitrogen fertilizer levels in the context of
a corn-winter cemal double cropping production system.
Data on the yield, crude protein (CP)...
Five newly released and two Eastern European winter wheat
cultivars were grown under five different seeding rates (80, 160,
240, 320, 400 seeds per m²). Four of these newly released cultivars
were grown at three different locations which have different environmental
conditions. Data were obtained on grain yield, tiller number...
There are times when forage producers desire a quick-growing, high quality annual forage in mid-summer in situations such as: less-than full season irrigation water supply; need for an emergency crop due to crop failure; or forage rotation crop between alfalfa stands. Currently there are few good options in these situations....

In the Pacific Northwest, a transition has begun that is shifting many practices in forest management. Traditionally, harvesting and regeneration has been done through clearcutting which removes all trees in the area being cut and plants an entirely new stand. Clearcutting is often the most efficient method for harvesting forests...

Variability in fruit set and yield is a serious problem in Oregon viticulture, particularly with Pinot noir. Climatic variation during the flowering period contributes significantly to this problem by affecting fruit set and cluster weight. Cool wet weather during bloom results in poor set, small clusters, and low yields. Seasons...
In the past ten years, variation in Oregon vineyard yields has come from two main causes: winter injury and inconsistent fruit set. Together these factors have caused significant yield variation in almost every Oregon vineyard. In 1991, a research project was started at Oregon State to develop and evaluate a...
Oregon has a rich history of orchard cultivation
across the state. Today, orchards continue to
be an important part of Oregon’s economy
and contribute to a healthy and balanced diet for the
public. But, with the growth of residential development,
lands that once contained orchards are being
converted into homes...
Fish, asymptomatically infected with Enteric Redmouth
Bacterium (ERMB), were tested for their ability to transmit
bacteria to non-infected fish. Unstressed carrier fish
were unable to transmit enough bacteria to cause
epizootics or produce carrier fish. However, when the
ERMB carriers were stressed with heat, sufficient bacteria
were shed to infect...
The 1988 status of yellowtail flounder stocks off the U.S. coast
of the Northwest Atlantic is assessed using U.S. and distant water
fleet commercial fishery statistics and Northeast Fisheries Center
bottom trawl survey data. Assessments of Southern New England and
Georges Bank stocks are revised using virtual population analysis of...
Introduction Tuna is one of the worlds most traded and sought after species
of fish. The global tuna market is worth in the region of $6billion and
annual catch volumes of around 4 million tonnes. The tuna supply chain is
global and it is broad and complex involving multiple stakeholders....
Yellow toadflax (Linaria vulgaris) and Dalmatian toadflax (Linaria
dalmatica) are members of the figwort (Scrophulariaceae) family.
They were introduced into North America as ornamental plants because of their showy, snapdragon-like flowers. Yellow toadflax was brought from Wales in the mid-1800s as a garden flower by Ranstead, a Welsh Quaker who...

Yellow starthistle, a native of the Mediterranean region, arrived in this country in 1869 as a contaminant in alfalfa seed. It is a strong invader of disturbed areas, rangelands, and roadsides and thrives in areas of summer drought. A yellow starthistle invasion will reduce biodiversity by choking out native plants....

Yellow starthistle (Centaurea solstitialis L.) is a member of the knapweed
(Centaurea L.) complex. It is poor forage for all livestock and causes
“chewing disease,” a nervous disorder, in horses. Yellow starthistle infests
millions of acres in California and the Pacific Northwest. Infestations range
from scattered plants to dense stands...

Yellow nutsedge is an important weed problem in the furrow irrigated fields in the Treasure Valley of eastern Oregon and southwestern Idaho. Field studies were conducted in 2008 and 2009 to evaluate the effect of PPI S-metolachlor or EPTC followed by POST halosulfuron and dicamba plus glyphosate or glyphosate alone...
Greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate the influence of selected adjuvants on
glyphosate efficacy on yellow nutsedge and tuber production. Glyphosate was applied
at 0, 0.25, 0.43, 0.87, 1.26 (1x rate), and 1.74 kg ae ha⁻¹ 31 d after yellow nutsedge
was planted. Each rate was mixed with one of...

Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) is a key ecological process that can restore nitrogen (N) lost in wildfire and shape the pace and pattern of post-fire forest recovery. To date, there is limited information on how climate and soil fertility interact to influence different pathways of BNF in early forest succession....

Yeast mannoproteins released during the process of aging wine on the yeast lees have been reported to make important contributions to wine quality. However, few mannoproteins have been identified in wine and their lifespan during aging is unknown. As a first step towards better understanding the contributions of yeast mannoproteins...
Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains three NAD⁺/NADH kinases, one of which is localized in
mitochondria and phosphorylates NADH in preference to NAD⁺. Strand et al (Euk. Cell
2:809 (2003)) reported that a yeast mutation in POS5, which encodes the mitochondrial
NADH kinase, is a mutator, specific for mitochondrial genes. Because of the...
A laboratory-prepared hot-water extract of yeast is required
for vigorous growth of San Francisco sourdough bacteria (Lactobacillus
sanfrancisco) in pure culture. This requirement was examined
with the goal of determining what is unique about fresh yeast extractives
(commercial extractives exhibit much lower growth promoting
activity), and which components of fresh...
Yeast culture supplementation has been used to improve the health and performance of dairy cows for the last 25 years. To evaluate the effect of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae fermentation product (Diamond V Original XP™) on the health and production of peripartal Holstein cows, two research studies were conducted.

The objectives of this research project are to gain a better understanding of juice/must nutrition and the production of hydrogen sulfide and other 'off' sulfide odors in Oregon wines in relationship to both viticulture and winemaking practices. Specifically, the objectives of this research project are: · To analyze commercial juices/musts...
Background
As the U.S. population grows older, there is greater need to examine physical independence. Previous studies have assessed risk factors in relation to either disability or mortality, but an outcome that combines both is still needed.

The Cardiovascular Health Study is a population‐based, prospective study where...
Early ocean residence is assumed to be a critical period for juvenile Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. However, the specific mechanisms influencing growth and survival in the ocean have not been identified for most populations. Therefore, three hypotheses regarding the relationship between early marine residence and subsequent survival of mid-upper Columbia...
