'Tendercrop' and 'OSU 949' green snap beans were grown at
populations varying from 77,000 to 392,000 plants per acre with two
row spacings and six square arrangements ranging from 4 x 4 to 9 x 9
inches. Maximum yield of 10.1 tons per acre (32 percent sieve size
4 and...
The effects of modifying air temperature, soil temperature,
and soil moisture levels on flowering, fruiting, and chemical composition
of Tendercrop snap beans were studied in experiments in
the field and in the greenhouse during 1961, 1962, and 1963.
High maximum temperatures of 95-105° F. during bloom reduced
the percent set...
A comparison was made between double rows 15 cm apart
on 76 cm centers and single rows 76 cm apart of 'Oregon
91G' bush green beans at the same planting densities in
three experiments in 1986 and 1987. There was a significant
increase in yields of pods from double rows...

The severity of wildfires around the globe is increasing. At the same time, urban development is expanding outward into areas where severe fires occur. There is an increased risk of home loss to fires in areas where severe fires and urban expansion meet. Ignition of homes or nearby fuel is...
The objectives of these experiments were to determine
the feasibility of saving seed from snap bean fields in the
Willamette Valley that have been bypassed for canning and
freezing, and to study the effects of different seed production
methods on yield and quality of snap bean (Phaseolus
vulgaris L.).
Field...
