Small broomrape (Orobanche minor) is an obligate, chlorophyll-lacking parasite that parasitizes red clover (Trifolium pratense) roots. This study was conducted to develop and implement an integrated, biologically based control program for small broomrape by using wheat as a false host to reduce the soil seed bank. The relationship between temperature...
Small broomrape (Orobanche minor Sm.) is a parasitic weed that recently has become troublesome in red clover seed production in Oregon. It was identified
in a single red clover seed production field in 1998, and the number of infestations increased to 15 by 2000 and 22 by 2001.
Two separate investigations were carried out. The first experiment
on subterranean clover (Mr. Barker) was conducted in the field
and greenhouse on the Steiwer soil. The second experiment on alfalfa
(DuPuits) was conducted in the greenhouse on selected eastern Oregon
soils.
The purposes of the first experiment were to determine...
Entomopathogenic fungi are cosmopolitan microbial pathogens that cause fungous diseases in a wide range of insects via spore infection. Due to their natural enemy status, they have tremendous potential for use as microbial control agents against insect pests, especially subterranean pests for which few management options are available. The clover...
Small broomrape, a holoparasitic weed, is a relatively new weed introduction in the Pacific Northwest that has contaminated a limited number of red clover fields in Oregon. Greenhouse and field studies were conducted to evaluate small broomrape response to common crop and weed species in the Pacific Northwest. Host species...
Four sampling techniques were evaluated to estimate clover aphid, Nearctaphis bakeri
(Cowen), abundance in red clover fields in the Willamette Valley. The Berlese funnel method
detected one to four times more aphids than other sampling techniques. Visual assessment
often underestimated the high aphid densities during the flowering and seeding of...

Lodging in cereals can cause significant decreases in yield. It
is both a problem in susceptible cereal cultivars with a tall-stemmed,
weak-strawed growing habit and in lodging-resistant
cereal cultivars when they are grown under high-nitrogen, high-moisture
regimes. Plant growth regulators (PGR's) are chemical
growth retardants that offer a method of...
Levels of resistance to six selected insecticides of
eleven field populations of the filbert aphid Mvzocallis
coryli (Goetze) were determined by using the leaf-dip
residue technique. Test insecticides included compounds
widely used in commercial filbert orchards, namely,
carbaryl, diazinon, endosulfan, phosalone, fenvalerate and
oxydemetonmethyl. Aphid samples were collected within a...

Surveys by industry groups indicate that an alarming percentage
of grain shipments in the Pacific Northwest are contaminated by dead
rodents and birds, rodent hairs and droppings, and bird feathers and
droppings.
