Pesticide Use On Crops In Nebraska - 1987, Maurice Baker, Nancy Peterson, Shripat T. Kamble
Pesticide Use On Crops In Nebraska - 1987, Maurice Baker, Nancy Peterson, Shripat T. Kamble
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
This is the third and most comprehensive study of pesticide use on crops in Nebraska. The first was completed in 1978 and the second one in 1982. The first study indicated that approximately 25 million pounds (11.34 million kg) of active ingredients were used on the major crops in Nebraska. This increased to approximately 30.2 million pounds (13.7 million kg) in 1982. The USDA requires accurate information to meet their responsibilities. Thus, this survey was undertaken to determine: 1) the use of pesticides on crops, pasture and rangeland and 2) to identify pest management practices.

False Smut Of Buffalograss, John L. Weihing
False Smut Of Buffalograss, John L. Weihing
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
False smut of buffalograss, Buchloe dactyloides (Nutt.) Engelm., caused by Cercospora seminalis Ell. & Ev. is a disease that destroys the unfertilized ovary. The disease was first reported by J. B. Ellis and B. M. Everhart in 1888. They gave only a brief description of the disease and named the causal fungus Cercospora seminalis. There are no etiological studies of false smut recorded in the literature. The origin of the term "false smut" is unknown to the author, but it so descriptively fits the general appearances of the disease that one readily understands its usage. The following studies were …

Effect Of Low Temperature On The Germination Of Artificially Dried Seed Corn, J. E. Livingston
Effect Of Low Temperature On The Germination Of Artificially Dried Seed Corn, J. E. Livingston
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Soil pathogens were primarily responsible for the reduction in emergence of corn seedlings following the cold treatment. The susceptibility of the seedlings to soil pathogens was much greater when the seedlings were exposed to a soil temperature of 5° C for 7 to 14 days than when they were held continuously at 20° C. Seedling emergence was in inverse relation to kernel moisture content at time of harvest. Artificial drying of the seed intensified this effect, particularly in nonsterile soil. Treatment of the seed with Arasan prior to planting completely eliminated the effect of soil pathogens on seedling emergence either …
Pink Rot Of Potatoes Caused By Phytophthora Erythroseptica Pethyb., R. W. Goss
Pink Rot Of Potatoes Caused By Phytophthora Erythroseptica Pethyb., R. W. Goss
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
During the summer of 1943 reports were received of rotted tubers occurring in fields of early potatoes in central Nebraska. An estimated 10 per cent of the tubers were found rotted in some fields on August 5. In November and December of the same year the late-producing area of western Nebraska reported the occurrence, at harvest and in storage, of tuber rots differing from those previously recorded for that area. Specimens appeared similar to those observed during the summer in central Nebraska. Isolations were made and pathogenicity tests were conducted both on tubers and growing plants to study the influence …
Charcoal Rot Of Corn And Sorghum, J. E. Livingston
Charcoal Rot Of Corn And Sorghum, J. E. Livingston
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
In Nebraska, the charcoal rot caused considerable damage to the 1940 grain sorghum crop in the south central counties, and the following year it caused serious lodging and reduction of yield in both corn and sorghum in all sections of the state. Field observations indicated that some varieties of sorghum were damaged less than others; thus it appeared desirable to test thoroughly all varieties to determine whether any were sufficiently resistant to be recommended for field planting or to be used in a breeding program. It seemed desirable to study the influence of soil environment on infection and the development …
The Effects Of Stinking Smut (Bunt) And Seed Treatment Upon The Yield Of Winter Wheat, T. A. Kiesselbach, W. E. Lyness
The Effects Of Stinking Smut (Bunt) And Seed Treatment Upon The Yield Of Winter Wheat, T. A. Kiesselbach, W. E. Lyness
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The depreciating effects of bunt or stinking smut (Tilletia levis Kuhn and tritici [Bjerk.] Wint.) upon the yield and quality of winter wheat in Nebraska and many other states are well known. The practical control of this disease through seed treatment has also been established and is being extensively practiced by growers. At the time these experiments were initiated in 1923, formaldehyde was the most commonly used disinfectant, while copper carbonate was just gaining recognition following its introduction by Darnell-Smith in 1915. It has been the chief purpose of the investigations herein reported to study the relative merits of …
Comparative Physiology Of Actinomyces In Relation To Potato Scab, Mitrofan M. Afanasiev
Comparative Physiology Of Actinomyces In Relation To Potato Scab, Mitrofan M. Afanasiev
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The present work was undertaken with the purpose of investigating the physiology of different strains of A. scabies as compared with saprophytic Actinomyces. By a comparative study of these groups, it was thought that differences in the physiology of the two might be found which would give a better understanding of the nature of this parasitism and also of the metabolism of Actinomyces in general. In addition, it was hoped that the determination of the factors influencing the parasitism of Actinomyces might establish a basis for the development of more efficient methods of controlling scab diseases. The present investigation …
The Influence Of Various Soil Factors Upon Potato Scab Caused By Actinomyces Scabies, R. W. Goss
The Influence Of Various Soil Factors Upon Potato Scab Caused By Actinomyces Scabies, R. W. Goss
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Scab, caused by Actinomyces scabies (Thaxt.) Giiss., is a potato disease of major importance in western Nebraska. Seed treatments are effective in controlling seed-borne scab, but it has been shown that even when healthy or treated seed potatoes are used the disease may be very severe because of infection from the soil. Crop rotation will reduce the incidence of the disease, but the fact that potato scab may cause serious loss in soils never before planted to potatoes indicates that there are numerous factors other than the time interval between potato crops which affect the occurrence of the disease. A …
Wilt And Cold Resistance Of Self-Fertilized Lines Of Alfalfas, George L. Peltier, H. M. Tysdal
Wilt And Cold Resistance Of Self-Fertilized Lines Of Alfalfas, George L. Peltier, H. M. Tysdal
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
The relative reactions to cold and wilt of self-fertilized lines of alfalfa through to the fifth generation are reported. Some of the reasons for undertaking a breeding program are given as well as methods used in the controlled cold and wilt determinations. Preliminary studies showed that reinoculating healthy individuals which had already resisted one wilt infection test served to eliminate additional plants, but the percentage healthy was much higher after the reinoculation than after the first inoculation. The foundation materials from which selections were made consisted of selected plants from a number of old Nebraska fields and a large collection …
