B779: Ectomycorrhizae Of Maine. 2 A Listing Of Lactarius With The Associated Hosts (With Additional Information On Edibility), Richard L. Homola, Miroslaw M. Czapowskyj

Bulletins

Thirty-nine Lactarii have been collected and identified with their possible ectomycorrhizal associates for Maine. Many of the Lactarius are new reports for Maine. Most of the ectomycorrhizal relationships reported from Maine are confirmed by the work of others. The edibility comments are those of the authors from the popular mushroom guides mentioned. Colored photos of thirty-nine Lactarii are included.

Tb103: Factors Determining Potato Chipping Quality, Therese M. Work, Alan S. Kezis, Ruth H. True

Technical Bulletins

The purpose of this investigation was (1) to investigate the relationship of four potato varieties, the sucrose content at harvest, storage temperatures, and the length of storage time to the color of chips from potatoes grown in central Maine and (2) to develop an equation that will help forecast the potential chipping qualit y of potatoes grown in central Maine


Tb102: A Markov Analysis Of Structural Change And Output Prediction In The New England Egg Industry, Steven P. Skinner Jul 1981

Tb102: A Markov Analysis Of Structural Change And Output Prediction In The New England Egg Industry, Steven P. Skinner

Technical Bulletins

The purpose of this study is to examine changes in the size distribution of egg farms as a Markov process in the three-state region consisting of Connecticut, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. In 1978 these three states together received cash receipts of 83 million dollars from egg sales. In addition to examining the size distribution of farms, the occurrence of a marked structural change in the egg industry during the period 1967 to 1978 is statistically tested. Also, the future size distribution of egg farms, total number of layers, and egg output are projected.

Miscellaneous Reports

This report describes the spring migration and courtship, nesting, roosting, fall migration and habitat requirements of the American woodcock. It also presents specific steps that small landowners can take to enhance their property for woodcock by economically feasible methods. The report is designed for the landowner who is not a biologist, but who wants to do something for woodcock on his or her own land.
