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...
Solid municipal waste was applied to Sagehill sand at rates of
0, 100, 200, and 400 tons/acre (0, 67, 133, and 267 tons dry matter).
Sewage sludge (2% solids) was applied at 55 gallons per ton of solid
waste. Hyslop winter wheat was planted as a cover crop in October...
