Trials Indicate Best Lupin Seeding Rates, G H. Walton

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

Trials on the seeding rate of lupins have shown that for most crops, at least 80kg of seed per hectare gives best yields. However the yields varied considerably, and in higher yielding situations, lower seeding rates were better.

Bulletin No 3994 - Kikuyu Grass : Establishment, Management And Utilisation In The South West., R. Sprivulis

Bulletins - 3000 - 3999

Kikuyu grass (Pennisetum clandestinum), kikuyu for short, is a summer growing turf-forming perennial. In the absence of winter frosts and with sufficient summer moisture it remains green all year round. It is a vigorous and aggressive grass spreading by means of prostrate above and below ground stems rooting at the nodes. Some selections and recent introductions of this species are fertile and produce seed. The seeds, when eaten by stock, can be widely spread in their droppings.

Seed yields of early maturing subterranean clovers. A brief description of weather conditions in 1977, site details and results of germination counts and growth ratings were included in the Summary Report for 1977. Drill-sown trials - Seed yields from the trials varied from good in the southern wheatbelt to very poor in the northern areas. Test samples were taken from trials 77GE32, 77GE40 and 77GE41 in the Pindar and Tardun districts, 77ME22 at Koorda and 77TS25 at Perenjori but the quantity of seed did not warrant yield assessment. Trial 77M022 at Gabalong was not sampled. Seed yields from the rest …

The Effect Of Foliar Fertilization On Soybean Yield And Leaf Necrosis, Robert Jay Goos

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) is a very important world crop. The seed is rich in both protein and oil, making it a valuable human food resource. Many scientists believe that there are physiological barriers preventing increased soybean yields. Any agronomic discovery that would consistently increase soybean yields would be important to world food production. One possible yield barrier in soybeans concerns the mineral nutrition of the plant during the seed-filling stages of growth. During this period of growth, translocation of N, P, K, and S from the plant foliage to the developing seed occurs, accompanied by a virtual …

Plant Availability Of Aqueous Phosphates Removed By Fly Ash, Paul D. Weeldreyer

Recycling non-renewable resources has become increasingly. important as man has continuously expected more and more from his environment. As stated by Spendlove (1976): "Recycling certainly is not new. It appears, in fact, to be one of the most obvious laws of nature, much like the seasons, the tides, and the life and death processes. It is not surprising, therefore, that the greatest motivating force behind present recycling efforts is the worldwide concern for the deteriorating natural environment." This ever-increasing demand for more production has created the need for more stringent pollution controls to maintain an acceptable quality of life. Pollution …

The Transfer Of Resistance To Wheat Streak Mosaic Virus (Wsmv) From Wheatgrass (Agropyron Intermedium (Host.) Beauv.) To Common Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L. Em. Thell.) By Irradiation, Harnek S. Sandhu

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A virus disease, wheat streak mosaic, has been an important, unsolved problem of winter wheat which is a major crop in South Dakota. F₁BC₃ monosomic alien addition seeds having three doses of Centurk were irradiated with fast neutrons to translocate a segment of the alien chromosome accounting for immunity from wheat streak mosaic virus to a Centurk chromosome. Immune plants from the irradiated seeds were used as male parents onto Centurk and about 2,000 F₁BC₄ seeds obtained. Cytological examination of pollen mother cells of 151 resistant F₁BC₄ plants indicated that the …
