Quality Control For Usda Nrcs Sm–St Network Soil Temperatures: A Method And A Dataset, Q. Steven Hu, Song Feng, Garry Schaefer

School of Natural Resources: Faculty Publications

In 1991, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) established its Soil Moisture–Soil Temperature (SM–ST) Pilot Network consisting of 21 stations in 19 states in the contiguous United States. At each station, soil temperatures were measured at up to six different depths from 5.08 to 203.20 cm (or 2–80 in.) below the surface. Before 1997, the observations were made every 6 h, and they increased to hourly beginning in 1997. The goal of this network is to provide near–real time soil temperature and soil moisture observations in different regions across the United States for agricultural and …

Alfalfa Autotoxicity, Edward K. Twidwell Jun 2002

Alfalfa Autotoxicity, Edward K. Twidwell

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Alfalfa producers have observed for many years that attempts to re-establish alfalfa into existing alfalfa stands quite frequently result in failure. In recent years, researchers have begun to suspect that established alfalfa plants may produce toxic compounds that reduce or inhibit the germination of new alfalfa seedlings. The purpose of this publication is to summarize sane of the recent research findings and to describe cultural practices that will help insure success when reseeding alfalfa.

Diplodia Shoot Blight Of Pines, Dale Gallenberg, Thomas Chase Jun 2002

Diplodia Shoot Blight Of Pines, Dale Gallenberg, Thomas Chase

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Diplodia shoot blight, also known. as Diplodia tip blight or canker or Sphaeropsis blight, can be a particularly damaging disease of Austrian, ponderosa, and Scotch pines, as well as other pine and evergreen species. The disease is caused by a fungus, Sphaeropsis sapinea (syn. Diplodia pinea). Extensive damage may occur on trees chronically stressed by being grown outside their natural range. Although pine trees of all ages are susceptible to the disease, damage is most severe in older trees. Severe damage seldom occurs in trees not yet bearing cones. Numerous or repeated infection with Diplodia shoot blight can lead to …

Teff: A New Annual Forage Grass For South Dakota?, Edward K. Twidwell, Arvid Boe, David P. Casper Jun 2002

Teff: A New Annual Forage Grass For South Dakota?, Edward K. Twidwell, Arvid Boe, David P. Casper

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Teff (Eragrostis tef Zucc. Trotter) is a major cereal crop in Ethiopia and has been grown in other African countries as a hay crop. Teff is a warm-season, annual grass that has rapid seed germination and seedling development. It also is well adapted to dry climates. These qualities indicate that teff could be used in this region of the U.S. as a supplemental forage during periods when other forage supplies are diminished. In South Dakota, late summer is when forage supplies are typically low. Teff has been marketed recently in South Dakota under the name “Dessie Summer Lovegrass.” This marketing …

Fall Control: Field Bindweed, Leon J. Wrage, Paul O. Johnson Jun 2002

Fall Control: Field Bindweed, Leon J. Wrage, Paul O. Johnson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Field bindweed is the most widespread noxious week in South Dakota. Fall-aplied herbicides can be especially effective on this weed. The herbicide translocates more extensively into the roots. Control for some treatments is nearly doubled. It’s particularly useful in fallow, in shelterbelt, or following harvest of early crops. There are fewer restrictions on grazing or haying, especially in rights-of-way.

Waste Pesticides: Proper Storage, Handling, And Disposal, Jim Wilson Jun 2002

Waste Pesticides: Proper Storage, Handling, And Disposal, Jim Wilson

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

South Dakota residents now have an opportunity to properly dispose of waste pesticides at no cost. The 1992 state legislature approved legislation to allow the South Dakota Department of Agriculture to provide a state-wide Waste Pesticide Collection program. The program is authorized for five years and is overseen by an advisory committee made up of agricultural commodity, agricultural industry groups, state agencies, and associations. In order to be eligible for the program, waste pesticides must be pre-registered with the South Dakota Department of Agriculture in Pierre. Pre-registration forms are available from the South Dakota Department of Agriculture or your local …

Wheat Scab, Dale J. Gallenberg Jun 2002

Wheat Scab, Dale J. Gallenberg

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Scab, also known as head blight, head scab or pink mold, is a fungal disease which can attack spring and winter wheat as well as other small grains. It is generally most serious under wet or humid weather conditions, such as that experienced in South Dakota and the upper Great Plains in 1993. Scab was observed in some winter wheat fields and was particularly severe in spring wheat and some barley fields.

Use Of Seed Coating And Fungicide Seed Treatment In Establishing Alfalfa, Edward K. Twidwell, Dale J. Gallenberg Jun 2002

Use Of Seed Coating And Fungicide Seed Treatment In Establishing Alfalfa, Edward K. Twidwell, Dale J. Gallenberg

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Establishing a good stand is an important step in the efficient and profitable production of alfalfa. Site selection, seedbed preparation, seeding method, depth of seeding, and other agronomic factors can affect stand establishment. In some cases, seed and seedling diseases can be a significant problem in alfalfa. Damping-off (caused by Pythium spp. And Phytophthora megasperma) generally is recognized as the primary disease problem affecting alfalfa establishment. Problems due to damping-off can be significant, particularly when alfalfa is planted into poorly drained soils. In addition to site selection, fungicide seed treatment is one way to minimize losses from damping-off. For maximum …

Personal Pesticide Protection - Coveralls And Aprons, Cooperative Extension Service Jun 2002

Personal Pesticide Protection - Coveralls And Aprons, Cooperative Extension Service

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Pesticide labels under the federal Worker Protection Standard (WPS) may require coveralls for people working with pesticides or near areas treated with them. One- or two-piece coveralls provide an extra layer of protection and can reduce skin exposure to pesticides. Although a variety of protective coveralls are available in local stores or by mail, few companies provide information about resistance of their materials to agricultural chemicals. Remember that coveralls cannot offer complete protection and that no one material is effective in all situations. Wearing coveralls over regular work clothes and underwear can reduce the amount of pesticides that get onto …

Personal Pesticide Protection - Selection And Care, Cooperative Extension Service

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Pesticides can enter the body through inhalation or accidental ingestion. However, the most common and least understood means of poisoning is through skin absorption. Whether liquid spray or granular, all forms of pesticide can soil your clothes, putting them in close contact with your skin where they may be absorbed. Granules may not stick to fabrics or leave evidence of soiling, but cotton fabrics may hold their pesticide residues.

Estimating Alfalfa Quality In The Field, Vance N. Owens Jun 2002

Estimating Alfalfa Quality In The Field, Vance N. Owens

SDSU Extension Extra Archives

Knowledge of alfalfa nutritive value is essential for making informed forage management decisions in alfalfa-based livestock production systems. However, most harvest management and storage decisions are made with no chemical composition information because obtaining analytical data is time consuming and expensive. The quality of forage needed for a particular operation is influenced by the intended use of the forage and by the dietary requirements of a given class of livestock. The detergent fiber system of forage analysis (neutral detergent fiber, NDF; and acid detergent fiber, ADF) coupled with a measure of crude protein (CP) provide vital information for balancing rations …

Expression Of Gp73, A Resident Golgi Membrane Protein, In Viral And Nonviral Liver Disease, Raleigh D. Kladney, Xiaoyen Cui, Gary A. Bulla, Elizabeth M. Brunt, Claus J. Fimmel Jun 2002

Expression Of Gp73, A Resident Golgi Membrane Protein, In Viral And Nonviral Liver Disease, Raleigh D. Kladney, Xiaoyen Cui, Gary A. Bulla, Elizabeth M. Brunt, Claus J. Fimmel

Faculty Research & Creative Activity

GP73 is a novel type II Golgi membrane protein of unknown function that is expressed in the hepatocytes of patients with adult giant-cell hepatitis (Gene 2000;249:53-65). Its expression pattern in human liver disease and the regulation of its expression in hepatocytes have not been systematically studied. The aims of the present study were to compare GP73 protein levels in viral and nonviral human liver disease and in normal livers, to identify its cellular sources, and to study the regulation of its expression in hepatoma cells in vitro. GP73 protein levels were quantitated in explant livers of patients with well-defined disease …

Chemical Bonds Broken In Latent Tracks Of Light Ions In Plastic Track Detectors, R. Barillon, M. Fromm, Robert Katz, A. Chambaudet Jun 2002

Chemical Bonds Broken In Latent Tracks Of Light Ions In Plastic Track Detectors, R. Barillon, M. Fromm, Robert Katz, A. Chambaudet

Robert Katz Publications

When a swift ion is slowed down through a plastic detector it creates a latent track. In nuclear track detectors, this latent track can be specifically etched by an appropriate chemical solution. This enlargement process is due to a higher etch velocity (VT) along the ion's path than in the non-damaged part of the detector. The etched track velocity is definitely linked to the damage created by the incoming ion in the detector material. A relationship between the physical parameters of the energy deposition and the variation in this etched track velocity with the ion energy cannot easily …
