Sugar-Enhanced Sweet Corn Cultivar Evaluation For Northern Indiana, 2006, Elizabeth T. Maynard
Sugar-Enhanced Sweet Corn Cultivar Evaluation For Northern Indiana, 2006, Elizabeth T. Maynard
Midwest Vegetable Trial Reports
The Indiana Agricultural Statistics Service reported sweet corn for fresh market sales was harvested from 5,200 acres in Indiana in 2005 and had a total value of $7.6 million. Sweet corn fields are located throughout the state. In Northern Indiana bicolor corn is most commonly grown. Varieties with improved eating quality are of interest to both producers and consumers. Producers are also interested in yield, ear size and appearance, and agronomic characteristics. This paper reports on eighteen sweet corn cultivars with homozygous se or mixed se and sh2 (synergistic) genetics that were evaluated at the Pinney-Purdue Ag Center, Wanatah, IN.

Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports
"Pumpkins grown for Halloween and other decorative purposes continue to be an important crop for many Midwestern vegetable farmers. Breeders are developing new varieties with improved appearance and disease resistance. A trial was conducted to evaluate varieties."
On-Farm Evaluation Of Tomato Cultivars For Disease Resistance, 2006, Dan Egel, Butch Zandstra, Elizabeth T. Maynard
On-Farm Evaluation Of Tomato Cultivars For Disease Resistance, 2006, Dan Egel, Butch Zandstra, Elizabeth T. Maynard
Purdue Fruit and Vegetable Research Reports
Bacterial spot of tomatoes (Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria) causes lesions on leaves, stems and fruit. Under conditions of hot, humid, rainy weather, defoliation can result in a loss of yield. In addition, lesions on fruit result in a direct loss of marketability. This disease is managed primarily with applications of fixed copper bactericides, crop rotations, greenhouse sanitation and healthy seed/transplants. Even in properly managed commercial fields, however, bacterial spot can cause yield losses. Although there are no varieties with complete resistance to bacterial spot, we report here the results of an on-farm trial that indicates some varieties may have partial …
