Performance Of Alfalfas Under Five Management Systems, W. R. Kehr, E. C. Conard, M. A. Alexander, F. G. Owen Jul 1963

Performance Of Alfalfas Under Five Management Systems, W. R. Kehr, E. C. Conard, M. A. Alexander, F. G. Owen

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

This bulletin reports stands, forage yields, and other agronomic data on alfalfas of diverse origin or type tested under five management systems at Lincoln, Nebraska. Narrow-crowned and broad-crowned types were tested. The management systems involved non-irrigated alfalfa-bromegrass tests (a) continuously grazed with steers, (b) cut for hay, and (c) rotationally grazed with sheep; an irrigated alfalfa-bromegrass test rotationally grazed with dairy cattle; and irrigated tests of alfalfas in pure stands cut for hay.


Studies Of The Mechanisms And Sources Of Spotted Alfalfa Aphid Resistance In Ranger Alfalfa, W. L. Howe, W. R. Kehr, M. E. Mcknight, G. R. Manglitz Mar 1963

Studies Of The Mechanisms And Sources Of Spotted Alfalfa Aphid Resistance In Ranger Alfalfa, W. L. Howe, W. R. Kehr, M. E. Mcknight, G. R. Manglitz

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

Mechanisms and sources of spotted alfalfa aphid resistance in Ranger alfalfa and its five parental strains were investigated during 1957-1960.


Relationship Of Self-Fertility, Pollen Abortion, And Micronuclei Number To Agronomic Performance In Alfalfa, P. P. Rotar, W. R. Kehr Feb 1963

Relationship Of Self-Fertility, Pollen Abortion, And Micronuclei Number To Agronomic Performance In Alfalfa, P. P. Rotar, W. R. Kehr

Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station

The purpose of this investigation was to study self-fertility, pollen abortion, and meiosis in a randomly selected population of Ranger alfalfa clones and their polycross progenies, and to relate such information to agronomic data obtained on the same materials.
