Three genetically different dwarf cultivars of spring wheat were
evaluated as potential sources of short stature to use in a wheat improvement
program. The study involved a five parent diallel cross
which included a semidwarf, a standard height and three dwarf cultivars.
The genetic sources of dwarfism included a Norma...
"'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...
This publication outlines characteristics of each pollinizer cultivar, including incompatibility alleles, flowering and nut characteristics, and pest tolerance. The data presented in this publication were collected from the original seedling tree of each pollinizer cultivar, and these cultivars currently are being evaluated in replicated trials and commercial plantings.
Therefore, we...
A new estimator of effective area surveyed is proposed for use
in estimating population sizes or densities. The estimator is based
on the cumulative distribution function for the observed detection
areas and can be used with the data arising from either a line
transect or a variable circular plot survey....
The purpose of this work was to develop a dynamic partial order model of II electrolyte solutions which avoids inconsistencies present in the Debye-1-Iuckel and 1n related theories. It is shown that our results are consistent with activity coefficient data in aqueous electrolyte solutions. The main features of our work...
New product development has been considered a key success factor for today's businesses. Long term survival of many manufacturing organizations depends on how successful organizations are introducing new products to compete in existing markets or in creating new markets. Despite the importance of new product development, many manufacturing organizations face...
The continental terrace west of Oregon between 43° 50'N and
44° 40' N latitude is 50 to 55 miles wide. It consists of a continental
shelf, 16 to 35 miles wide, and a continental slope, 16 to 37 miles
wide. The eastern portion of the shelf is a smooth, sediment...
