Research efforts were focused on testing various inbred combinations for hybrid produc-tion, and evaluating commercial cultivars for adaptation to Oregon growing conditions and for head rot resistance.
Objectives:
Develop broccoli varieties adapted to western Oregon with suitable quality, high yields, and disease resistance. Specific traits include:
Early to midseason maturity
Concentrated yield potential
Head rot and downy mildew resistance
Large openly branched heads that are well exserted and have clean stems for easy trimming and separation into...
Objectives:
Breed improved Bush Blue Lake green bean varieties with:
a. White and gray mold resistance
b. Improved plant architecture
c. High economic yield
d. Improved pod quality (including straightness, color, smoothness, texture, flavor and quality retention, and delayed seed size development)
e. Tolerance to abiotic stresses
Improve seed quality...
Objectives:
I. Develop broccoli varieties adapted to western Oregon with suitable quality, high yields, and disease resistance. Specific traits include:
a. Early to midseason maturity
b. Concentrated yield potential
c. Downy mildew resistance
d. Exerted heads with large openly branched heads with heavy, clean stem for easy trimming and separation...
Objectives:
1. Breed Bush Blue Lake green bean varieties with high economic yield and improved plant architecture.
2. Improve pod characteristics including straightness, color, smoothness, tex-ture, flavor and quality retention, and combine with delayed seed size de-velopment.
3. Incorporate white mold resistance and improve root rot tolerance.
4. Map genes...
