Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

This is the third report of results from an International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery (IWWPN) organized in 1968 by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, under a contract with the Agency for International Development, U.S. Department of State. The nursery was designed to (1) test the adaptation of winter wheat varieties in a range of latitudes, daylengths, fertility conditions, water management, and disease complexes; (2) identify superior winter varieties to serve as recipient genotypes for high protein and high lysine genes, and (3) test the degree of expression and stability of the …

Results Of Systematic Analyses For Protein And Lysine Composition Of Common Wheats (Triticum Aestivum L.) In The Usda World Collection, K. P. Vogel, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern Nov 1973

Results Of Systematic Analyses For Protein And Lysine Composition Of Common Wheats (Triticum Aestivum L.) In The Usda World Collection, K. P. Vogel, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Protein and lysine contents of 12,613 common wheats of the USDA World Wheat Collection were determined in order to identify wheats that may be sources of genes for high protein and high lysine. Results indicate that significant genetic differences in protein and lysine content probably exist among world collection common wheats. Selection criteria have been developed for further evaluation of World Collection lines high in protein and lysine content.

Phenological And Cultural Studies Of Common Dandelion (Taraxacum Officinale Weber), Don Carlisle Aug 1973

Phenological And Cultural Studies Of Common Dandelion (Taraxacum Officinale Weber), Don Carlisle

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Phenological and cultural studies of common dandelion (Taraxacum officinale Weber) were conducted from 1969 to 1971 at Bowling Green, Kentucky. The phenological studies were based upon dandelion plants which were found growing in a Kentucky bluegrass lawn or in open lots. At this location the dandelion flowered throughout the year. Maximum flowering occurred during April and a secondary peak occurred in September and October. The number of flowering stems per square meter was not correlated significantly with precipitation, temperature, or day length. Length of stem was positively correlated with temperature and day length. The plants exhibited diurnal variation in flowering …

Beef Cattle - At What Weight Should They Be Sold?, Franz Schwarz, J. B. Hassler

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Specific objectives of this study are: (1) To evaluate the recent historical price relationships of the beef sector indicative of profit and loss conditions caused by disorderly aggregate performance in production and marketing. (2) To analyze the risks involved at various positions in the chain of production and marketing activities. (3) To suggest information and action programs which could reduce the amount of disorderly production and marketing.


Analysis Of The Republic Of Korea Food Grain Situation, William F. Payne, Kyo Ii Jo Jul 1973

Analysis Of The Republic Of Korea Food Grain Situation, William F. Payne, Kyo Ii Jo

Agricultural Experiment Station Agricultural Economics Pamphlets (1941-1991)

Two problems for developing economies confronted with food shortages are (1) how to acquire sufficient food and still stabilize food prices in the short-run and (2) how to increase food production and realize food self-sufficiency in the long-run. Solving these two problems is often considered a precondition to achieving steady economic growth and industrialization. This study was concerned with the Republic of Korea, where economic development plans have been initiated during the last two decades under the condition of annual food grain shortages. Efforts to overcome these shortages have resulted in South Korea becoming the fastest growing major market for …

Seasonal Abundance Of The European Corn Borer Ostrinia Nubilalis (Hbn.) Within The North Central United States, R. E. Hill, H. C. Chiang, A. J. Keaster, W. B. Showers, G. L. Reed

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Annual changes in corn borer populations in the North Central States were measured as a phase of a Regional Project, NC-20, entitled "Factors Influencing Corn Borer Populations" in Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and Ohio over a period of years. Standardized procedures were followed to estimate the seasonal abundance of the European corn borer, Ostrinia nubilalis (Hbn.), under cropping procedures in different locations within the North Central States. The primary purpose of the present bulletin is to present results for the 1965 to 1969 period and to compare these results with the previous 10 years and thus attempt to analyze …
