Rb56-178 Streak Mosaic Of Wheat In Nebraska And Its Control, R. Staples, W.B. Allington

University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials

A mosaic of wheat was first observed in Nebraska by Peltier in 1922. Peltier found diseased plants in a large number of winter and spring wheat varieties at Lincoln, and in some instances, he successfully inoculated wheat and corn from the juice of infected plants. The temperatures under which Peltier maintained his inoculated plants are unknown and other criteria now employed to characterize the viruses were not utilized. It is probable, however, that he was working with what is now known as wheat streak mosaic virus.

This bulletin reports the results of studies on the epidemiology of wheat streak mosaic …

Waterfowl Sex Ratios During Spring In Washington State And Their Interpretation, Paul A. Johnsgard, Irven O. Buss

Papers in Ornithology

Sex-ratio studies have received much attention from research workers in recent years. The contributions of Hochbaum (1944), Petrides (1944) and others have yielded considerable information on sex ratios in waterfowl; Beer (1945) and Yocom (1949) have presented data for the state of Washington. To interpret regional data on waterfowl sex ratios adequately, it is necessary to obtain a series of uninterrupted observations covering the entire migration period of the species concerned. In 1954, an ecologic study was conducted in the Potholes area, Grant County, central Washington (Johnsgard, 1956). During the period February 15 to May 16, sex-ratio data were collected …
