Flavor profiles of canned and frozen whole kernel sweet corn were
obtained by entraining the volatile compounds on Porapak 0 traps and
by subsequent analysis on temperature-programed, 500' by 0.03" ID
capillary columns (SF-96 or Carbowax 20M). Identification was based
on GC/MS data, retention indices (I[subscript E]'s) and retention times....
The inheritance of ten characteristics of sweet corn was studied
by quantitative genetic analysis. Characters studied were tassel
date, silk date, plant height, ear height, shank length, husk extension,
tip blanking, number of kernel rows, ear length, and weight of the
first ear.
Diallel crosses were made between seven inbred...
The effects of planting date on mineral element
concentration in sweet corn (Zea mays L. cv. Jubilee) at six
developmental stages and on yield were investigated.
Planting dates were chosen to correspond to early,
mid-season, and late commercial plantings. Two nitrogen
rates were applied since nitrogen is more often limiting...
Studies were conducted in 1976 and 1977 on the effects of harvest
dates on maturity, yields and sugar content of four cultivars of
sweet corn. The cultivars were 'Golden Cross Bantam', 'Jubilee',
'Rapidpak' and 'Tendertreat'. Moisture content of kernels ranged from
80 to 67 per cent for the six harvest...

The response of sweet corn Zea mays L. var. rugosa (cultivar
'Jubilee') to row spacing, nitrogen and population density at two
planting dates was studied in a field experiment at the OSU
Vegetable Research Farm in 1984. Variables included two row
spacings, 75 cm and 90 cm, three nitrogen rates,...
'Jubilee' sweet corn was grown under conventional tillage and
strip tillage in 1982 and under conventional tillage, strip tillage
and no-till culture in 1983. Effects on soil temperature,
stand establishment, plant development parameters, overall yield,
yield components, and water use efficiency were measured.
In 1982, conventional tillage appeared to have...

Three varieties of sweet corn (Zea mays L.) , including
two supersweet (Crisp 'N Sweet 710 and Rogers 3376) and one
normal sweet (Jubilee), were harvested at six stages of
maturity (80-72% moisture for supersweet and 75-68% moisture
for normal sweet) at three days intervals. Changes in
physical and chemical...
Good management practices are essential if optimum fertilizer responses are to be realized. These practices include adequate irrigation, use of recommended varieties, selection of adapted soils, weed control, disease and insect control, good seedbed preparation, proper seeding methods, and timely harvest. Because of the influence of soil type, climatic conditions,...
The consequences of extracting com stover feedstock with either 95% ethanol or hot water prior to the chemical analysis of the macrocomponents of that feedstock have been determined. Reports by others have recommended the removal of extraneous substance by solvent extraction prior to chemical analyses (Browning, 1967; TAPPI, 1988). The...
Several herbicides were evaluated for selective weed control in sweet corn in 1961. Various methods of application were compared and a comparison of planting depths was made to determine possible interactive effects with Eptam applications
Laboratory incubation studies and field studies with sweet corn
and onions were undertaken to evaluate interactions of lime,
phosphorus (P), and copper (Cu). Eight soils were incubated at a
constant temperature of 21 °C with combinations of band placed
monocalcium phosphate (MCP), ammonium sulfate (AmS), and copper
sulfate pentahydrate (CSPH)...
Oregon sweet corn growers face high fertilizer, fuel
and weed control costs; soil compaction, erosion, organic
matter and nutrient depletion; and difficult equipment
operations in muddy fields. An alternative production
system might ease some of these problems.
Testing was begun to evaluate a living-mulch
cropping system for sweet corn (Zea...
Soil-related problems common to Oregon farmers are
erosion, compaction, organic matter depletion, and
nutrient loss. High costs of fertilizer, fuel, and weed
control are additional management problems. Growing a
secondary crop as a living mulch with a primary crop may
ease some of these problems.

Root rot of sweet corn in western Oregon and Washington is a significant disease that
can reduce yield of intolerant cultivars of processed sweet corn by fifty percent. Root rot
is caused by a complex of soilborne organisms, including Drechslera sp., Phoma

Sweet corn (Zea mays L.) yields in the Willamette Valley of Oregon have been declining since the early 1990’s. Studies were done to determine if there is a relationship between ear weight and several disease parameters including necrotic crowns or stalk nodes, nodal root rot, radicle root rot, and sub-crown...
