Yield reductions due to competition of weeds with crop plants
can be extremely important. Early weed competition can be as important
in reducing crop yield as weed competition for the entire
season.
The objectives of this study were (1) to determine the weed
control achieved by narrow row-cropping patterns, (2)...

Inheritance of the volatile components in bush snap beans,
O.S.U. 58-110 X 'Romano' cross and reciprocal, was determined
using gas-liquid chromatographic technique with gas-entrainment
on-column trapping. A sample of 10 to 14 pods averaging 5 grams
from a single plant was found to be adequate for F₁, F₂, and backcross...

'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...
Genetic and morphological characteristics of an architectural mutant in common beans were studied. The mutant had shiny, dark green leaves, overlapping leaflets, short petioles and a reproductive terminal bud even though the line did not carry the fin gene. Branching was nearly absent resulting in a single stem vine. This...
