Contamination of newly planted bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) varieties by undesirable off-type bermudagrass genotypes is an
ever increasing concern for turf managers because selective control options are limited. In 2009, a sethoxydim {2-[1-(ethoxyimino)butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one} tolerant bermudagrass genotype (93-175) was identified during
herbicide screening at the University of Georgia in Tifton. The objective...
Nuclear material monitoring systems have long been established at ports of entry. However, there are no standard systems for monitoring points of interest within the country. Therefore, the use of a network of radiation sensors deployed throughout an area of interest is being investigated within this thesis. Before full scale...
Concerns regarding the most effective means of evaluating
segregating generations of spring barley prompted this investigation. Three methods of selection were considered: bulk, pedigree, and single seed descent. F₆ lines derived by each method
were grown in a replicated yield trial. The effectiveness of each
method was measured in terms...
Assessment of the environmental impacts of an agricultural production system
requires information on both soil water quality and solute flux. Passive Capillary Samplers
(PCAPS), which sample water from the vadose zone using fiber glass wicks, have shown
potential to provide both flux and solute concentration in unsaturated zone sampling but...
