Bacteriocin-Like Substances Produced By Rhizobium Japonicum And Other Slow-Growing Rhizobia, D. C. Gross, A. K. Vidaver Dec 1978

Bacteriocin-Like Substances Produced By Rhizobium Japonicum And Other Slow-Growing Rhizobia, D. C. Gross, A. K. Vidaver

Department of Plant Pathology: Faculty Publications

Bacteriocin-like substances were commonly produced by slow-growing Rhizobium japonicum and cowpea rhizobia on an L-arabinose medium. Antagonism between strains of R. japonicum was not detected in vitro; however, such strains were often sensitive to some bacteriocins produced by cowpea rhizobia. Inhibitory zones (2 to 8 mm from colony margins), produced by 58 of 66 R. japonicum test strains, were reproducibly detected with Corynebacterium nebraskense as an indicator. Quantitative production was not related to symbiotic properties of effective strains, since nine noninfective strains and one ineffective strain produced bacteriocin. Eight R. japonicum strains that did not produce bacteriocin nevertheless formed effective …

Lichenometric Distribution Of Rhizocarpon Geographicum On Mt. Washington: A Relative Dating Tool., Paul Andrew Mayewski, Peter A. Jeschke Dec 1978

Lichenometric Distribution Of Rhizocarpon Geographicum On Mt. Washington: A Relative Dating Tool., Paul Andrew Mayewski, Peter A. Jeschke

Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

Excerpt from summary, p. 83: In addition to marking the distribution of snowpatches and the relative age of patterned ground features, local departures from the regional lichenometric trend may also be used to define and relatively date: changes in the distribution of soils and vegetation, avalanche deposits, and abrasion of hiking trails. Lichenometric studies will be undertaken in the following year to date more precisely features and events on Mount Washington.

Growth Analysis Of Tall Fescue Genotypes Differing In Yield And Leaf Photosynthesis, Wallace Wilhelm, C. J. Nelson Nov 1978

Growth Analysis Of Tall Fescue Genotypes Differing In Yield And Leaf Photosynthesis, Wallace Wilhelm, C. J. Nelson

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Relationships between leaf photosynthesis and yield have not been well defined in forage grasses. Therefore, leaf growth, dry matter distribution, carbohydrate concentration, and growth analysis of four genotypes of tall fescue (Festuca mundinacea Schreb.) were examined. Genotypes, selected in the field for high and low CO2 exchange rate (CER) in combination with high and low yield, were compared in an attempt to study the relationship between photosynthesis and yield.

In the vegetative growth stage, high yielding genotypes produced greater amounts of all plant parts (leaves, stem bases, and roots) than did low yielding genotypes; however, low yielding genotypes …

Leaf Growth, Leaf Aging, And Photosynthetic Rate Of Tall Fescue Genotypes, Wallace Wilhelm, C. J. Nelson Sep 1978

Leaf Growth, Leaf Aging, And Photosynthetic Rate Of Tall Fescue Genotypes, Wallace Wilhelm, C. J. Nelson

United States Department of Agriculture-Agricultural Research Service / University of Nebraska-Lincoln: Faculty Publications

Leaf growth and leaf aging both influence the total amount of CO, fixed by a particular leaf in the canopy during its photosynthetically productive life. Four genotypes of tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) were selected for all combinations of high and low COB exchange rates (CER) and yield. The purpose of this study was to determine CER during aging and leaf growth rates of tall fescue genotypes in growth chambers and in the field on a Mexico silt loam (Udollic Ochraqualfs; fine, montmarillonitic, mesic). Leaf growth of vegetative tillers in controlled environments was continuous throughout the day for all …

Forage Quality Evaluations Of Twelve Grasses In Relation To Season For Grazing, L. C. Newell, W. J. Moline Aug 1978

Forage Quality Evaluations Of Twelve Grasses In Relation To Season For Grazing, L. C. Newell, W. J. Moline

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

A study of forage quality in relation to seasonal yield of important perennial forage grasses was initiated to provide information and to promote a better understanding of their best use for grazing. This information should be particularly valuable in planning seasonal use of pure stands or mixtures of grasses.

Results Of The Eighth International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery Grown In 1976, K. D. Wilhelmi, S. L. Kuhr, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, J. W. Schmidt Jul 1978

Results Of The Eighth International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery Grown In 1976, K. D. Wilhelmi, S. L. Kuhr, V. A. Johnson, P. J. Mattern, J. W. Schmidt

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

This is the eighth report of results from an International Winter Wheat Performance Nursery (IWWPN) organized in 1968 by the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station and the Science and Education Administration (SEA), 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 and stability of winter wheat cultivars in a range of latitudes, daylengths, fertility conditions, water management regimes, and disease complexes; (2) identify superior winter cultivars to serve as recipient genotypes for high protein and high lysine genes, (3) test the degree of expression …
