A study was conducted to compare the competitive
ability with weeds of the short-strawed Gaines variety
wheat and taller growing varieties under different fertility
levels at three experimental locations. The
experiments were designed so that the effects of
variety, nitrogen fertilization, and weed competition
could be evaluated. The interactions between...
Slowly and half-heartedly the people of America have come to atone for past neglect of a poet who, under painful circumstances, produced the most distinctive and original contributions to American literature. They realize that the follies of his unfortunate life can be put aside and the weight of criticisms let...
The free fatty acids of milk fat are believed to be involved in
imparting flavor properties to milk and other dairy products. In the
past the free fatty acids have largely been related to quality deterioration
and hence the methods for measurement have been devised to
determine the changes in...
The purpose of this investigation was to modify the procedure
of Bills, Khatri and Day for use in the development of a suitable
method for determining the quantitative distribution of the free fatty
acids (FFA) in normal, heated, and rancid milk and milk fractions
The method consists of extracting the...
Numerous investigations have been made on the contribution of
butter cultures to the flavor of cultured cream butter, but production
of uniform cultured cream butter has not been possible in industry.
Therefore, it was desirable to investigate in detail the qualitative
and quantitative chemistry of the flavor of high quality...
Three experiments whose objectives were to investigate cover
crop kill by winter freeze, weed suppression by 'Micah' barley and
other spring cereals, and allelopathic potential of cereal covers
were conducted at the Vegetable Research Farm and in the greenhouse
and growth chamber facilities at OSU in 1989/90. Kill by winter...
The leaf- cutter bee Megachile rotundata (Fabricius) is an important
alfalfa pollinator in western North America.
This study was designed to provide information on methods of
orientation used by M. rotundata in order to make recommendations
regarding the parameters within which adult nesting populations may
be relocated.
Preliminary studies suggest...
The displacement of the free liquid surface in geothermal and
hydrologic reservoirs is an important capacitance factor. An
iterative approach to determining the drawdown of the free liquid
surface for a single sink region in a homogeneous, isotropic, Darcy-type
porous mediums is discussed. The iterative approach involves a
stepwise adjustment...
