Influence Of Early Season Temperatures On The Relative Leaf Expansion Rate Of Corn, Jody L. Ohmacht Jan 1987

Influence Of Early Season Temperatures On The Relative Leaf Expansion Rate Of Corn, Jody L. Ohmacht

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This study was initiated to determine the response of corn seedling growth to environmental conditions with emphasis placed on soil and air temperatures. Three environmental variables are considered most important to plant growth and these are temperature, light, and moisture. Temperature is considered the most important of these three variables. However, plant response to temperature, light, or moisture conditions will be influenced by other environmental factors. Another variable affecting plant growth which should be considered is initial plant size and/or plant stage of development for any given measuring period. A question that arises is do any of these variables have …

Women, Men, And Land, Yuri Yokota

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Willa Sylbert Cather was born in December 7, 1873, in Winchester, Virginia, and Pearl Sydenstricker Buck was born in Hillsboro in the adjoining state of West Virginia nearly nineteen years later, on June 26, 1892. When they were sensitive young girls, both of them were exposed to "foreign” cultures, which were quite different from their original Victorian cultures of the East. Willa and her family moved to the Nebraska frontier when Willa was eight years old. In the Nebraska prairies of the late nineteenth century, there were many foreign immigrants who had come to settle: Swedes, Norwegians, Russians, French, Germans …

Chickpeas As A Protein And Energy Supplement For High Producing Dairy Cows, Darryl Lynn Hadsell Jan 1987

Chickpeas As A Protein And Energy Supplement For High Producing Dairy Cows, Darryl Lynn Hadsell

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Thirty lactating Holstein cows were randomly assigned to one of three diets to evaluate chickpeas as a dietary supplement from wk 4 to 16 postpartum. Diets contained chickpeas at 0, 50, and 100 % of the concentrate dry matter in place of corn and soybean meal. Total mixed diets, fed individually, contained concentrate corn silage and alfalfa hay at 52, 32, and 16 % of the dry matter. Milk yield (34.5, 35.1, 35.7 kg/d) was higher for cows fed 100 % chickpeas than 0 % chickpeas. Fat (3.06, 3.09, 3.28 %) was highest for cows fed 100 % chickpeas. Milk …


Detection And Description Of Sulfonylurea Herbicide Breakdown In Soil, Mark A. Peterson Jan 1987

Detection And Description Of Sulfonylurea Herbicide Breakdown In Soil, Mark A. Peterson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Corn (Zea mays L. 'Sakata TS60’), grain sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Merr. 'Sokota 844'], and flax (Linum usitatissimum L. 'Culbert 79') were tested to determine suitability for petri dish bioassays of chlorsulfuron {2-chloro-N-[[ (4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3, 5-triazin-2-yl) amino]carbonyl]benzenesulfonamide}, metsulfuron {2-[[[[ (4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl) amino] carbonyl]amino]sulfonyl-]benzoic acid} and chlorimuron {2-[[ (4-chloro-6-methoxypyrimidine-2-yl) amino carbonyl] aminosulfonyl]benzoic acid, ethyl ester}. Sorghum was not an acceptable bioassay species. Corn had a significant response to all three herbicides. Flax was the best indicator species in both soil types tested. The effects of herbicide concentration, temperature, moisture, and pH on decomposition rate of chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron were studied. Both chlorsulfuron and …


The Determination Of Phosphorus In Fertilizers By Molecular Emission Spectroscopy, Miliand P. Sant Jan 1987

The Determination Of Phosphorus In Fertilizers By Molecular Emission Spectroscopy, Miliand P. Sant

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The performance of regulatory analysis on commercial products is an important consumer service. The current regulatory method for phosphorus analysis in fertilizers is very time consuming and laborious. Because of the high price of fertilizers it is necessary to compare the indicated level of phosphorus and actual level in fertilizer sample. The analysis of fertilizer samples assures the farmer that he will be receiving a fair value for his money. The ideal method would be one which is accurate, fast, precise and less expensive. Flame emission spectrometry is an elemental method of analysis sensitive to parts per million and parts …
