Grass Pasture Response To Water And Nitrogen, Robert W. Hill, Robert Newhall, Scott Williams, Brian Andrew

All Current Publications

The objective of this project is to study the response of pasture grass varieties to weather, irrigation and fertility in a field experimental plot at a high elevation. The water variable is accomplished with a line source sprinkler irrigation system. Two nitrogen fertility levels were imposed on two of the grass varieties

Responses Of Sphagnum And Carex Peatlands To Ultraviolet-B Radiation, And A Meta-Analysis Of Uv-B Effects On Vascular Plants, Peter S. Searles

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The severity of stratospheric ozone depletion in the temperate and polar latitudes has raised concerns about the sensitivity of terrestrial vegetation and ecosystems to solar ultraviolet (UV-B) radiation. This dissertation examined the responses of plants and microbes to solar UV-B for 3 years in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina (55° S). This region is under the influence of the Antarctic "ozone hole" during the austral spring. Additionally, a quantitative review of the UV-B literature was conducted using a set of statistical techniques known as meta-analysis.

For the field studies in Tierra del Fuego, plots were established in a Sphagnum moss peatland …

Hydroponic Vs. Soilless Media: Interaction With Plant Density, Derek R. Pinnock, Bruce Bugbee

Hydroponics/Soilless Media

Water stress can cause early heading in some plant species. ‘Super Dwarf’ rice was grown in hydroponic culture and soilless media to determine if a slight water stress, caused by the soilless media, would cause earlier heading.

Response Of Micro-Tom To Low Light, Jonathan M. Frantz, Justin Robinson, Bruce Bugbee

Dwarf Crops

Yield is proportional to light absorption, but maximum light cannot always be supplied to crops in either space station production settings or in teaching situations. It is therefore important to determine how crops grow in light-limited conditions. ‘Micro-Tom’ tomato was grown in fluorescent light under shade cloth to provide 100, 200, and 300 µmol m-2 s-1 for 16-h photoperiods at 26/22 °C for 117 days.

Yield and harvest index increased as light increased. There were significant amounts of unripe fruit after 117 days. During ripening, the fraction of dry matter decreases within the fruit.

The higher yield was likely due …

Western Tentiform Leafminer, Diane G. Alston, Michael E. Reding

All Archived Publications

Western tentiform leafminer populations can vary tremendously between years or even between generations within a single year. Increasing resistance to organophosphate insecticides and variable effectiveness of at least six parasitic wasp species that attack the leafminer can influence the population size.

Modelling Age- And Density-Related Gas Exchange Of Picea Abies Canopies In The Fichtelgebirge, Germany, Eva Falge, John D. Tennhunen, Ronald J. Ryel, Martina Alsheimer, Barbara Köstner

Wildland Resources Faculty Publications

Differences in canopy exchange of water and carbon dioxide that occur due to changes in tree structure and density in montane Norway spruce stands of Central Germany were analyzed with a three dimensional microclimate and gas exchange model STANDFLUX. The model was used to calculate forest radiation absorption, the net photosynthesis and transpiration of single trees, and gas exchange of tree canopies. Model parameterizations were derived for six stands of Picea abies (L.) Karst. differing in age from 40 to 140 years and in density from 1680 to 320 trees per hectare. Parameterization included information on leaf area distribution from …
