Postemergence herbicides and take-all disease in winter wheat : alterations in the incidence and severity of disease and crop growth

Creator:: Geddens, Ray M.
Abstract:: Eight postemergence herbicides were evaluated to determine their influence on the incidence and severity of take-all disease caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici in winter wheat. Mecoprop ((+)-2-(4-chloro-2-methylphenoxy)propanoic acid), difenzoquat (1,2- dimethyl- 3,5- diphenyl -1H- pyrazolium), dinoseb amine (amine salt of 2-(1-methylpropy1)-4,6-dinitrophenol), and diclofopmethyl (methyl ester of (+)-2-[4-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)...

A numerical study of solid fuel combustion in a moving bed

Creator:: Ko, Daekwun
Abstract:: Coal continues to be burned by direct combustion in packed or moving bed in small size domestic furnaces, medium size industrial furnaces, as well as small power stations. Recent stringent restrictions on exhaust emissions call for a better understanding of the process of combustion of coal in beds. The present...

Cover crop effect on soil microbial biomass after fumigation in potato fields in the Columbia Basin

Creator:: Kim, Esther
Abstract:: In the Columbia Basin, pre-plant soil fumigation is commonly used in potato production for pest control, but fumigation can kill non-target organisms within the soil, result in unintended shifts in the microbial community, and disrupt long-term soil health. Cover crops have been shown to strongly influence the numbers and communities...

Physiological effects of non-nutritive sugars on the survivorship and fecundity of Drosophila suzukii (Diptera: Drosophilidae)

Creator:: Tang, Siew Bee
Abstract:: Spotted wing drosophila (SWD), Drosophila suzukii, is an economically damaging pest on small fruits. The estimated economic impact is hundreds of millions of dollars annually in the U.S. alone, and increasing every year. Current control of SWD relies heavily on chemical insecticides which have many negative impacts on environmental and...

Thresholds of uncertainty : radiation and responsibility in the fallout controversy

Creator:: Jolly, J. Christopher
Abstract:: The public controversy over possible health hazards from radioactive fallout from atomic bomb testing began in 1954, shortly after a thermonuclear test by the United States spread fallout world wide. In the dissertation, I address two of the fundamental questions of the fallout controversy: Was there a threshold of radiation...

Antioxidant potential of yeast containing beer

Creator:: Morris, Edward E.
Abstract:: It has been suggested that cellular damage from oxygen radicals is one of the processes leading to cardio-vascular disease and cancer. Natural antioxidants prevent uncontrolled oxidative reactions by decreasing molecular oxygen levels, scavenging chain-initiating and chain-propagating free radicals, chelating metals, or decomposing peroxides. Beer is rich in antioxidants, derived both...

Interrelationships among changes in flavor and aroma, and composition of stored strawberry juice concentrate

Creator:: Lundahl, David S.
Abstract:: Sensory evaluation and instrumental methods were applied to the evaluation of strawberry juice concentrate (68°Brix) stored at 20°C which had been produced both commercially (C-SJC) and in a pilot plant (SJC). Sensory evaluation included taste and aroma ratings by intensity scaling and time-intensity of taste, and visual colorimetry by matching...

Purification of strawberry polyphenol oxidase and its role in anthocyanin degradation

Creator:: Wesche-Ebeling, Pedro Alfredo E.
Abstract:: Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) from strawberries was purified, partially characterized, and used to study its role in the degradation of anthocyanin pigments. The extraction method included the use of a buffered solution containing the phenolic binders Polyclar AT and Amberlite XAD-4. Addition of Triton X-100 resulted in an increase of the...

Perceptual characteristics of selected acidulants by different sensory and multivariate methods

Creator:: Rubico, Sonia Mendoza
Abstract:: The taste qualities of acidulants have not been studied in detail despite the fact that they are widely used by the food industry. Studies on characterizing the sensory properties of organic and inorganic acids are very limited. Reported studies are commonly on threshold, equi-sour and the time intensity values of...
