(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The effects of the grass-specific herbicide haloxyfop {2- [4- [[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl]oxy]-phenoxy]propanoic acid} on the growth and ultrastructure of susceptible sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench.) ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Ficus benjamina, F. stricta, Dieffenbachia amoena, and Brassaia arboricola were used to determine the effects of light quality and fertility on long-term maintenance in low light. Three light sources, (1) 100% PAR fluorescent, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)Seven woody landscape ornamentals were grown in a glasshouse under wellwatered conditions and screened for water consumption, net assimilation rate (NAR) and water use efficiency. Lagerstroemia indica 'std. purple' L had ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)Norflurazon {4-chloro-5-(methylamino)-2-((alpha),(alpha),(alpha)-trifluoro-m-tolyl)-3(2H)-pyridazinone} decreased the total chlorophyll content and the chlorophyll a/b ratio of nine plant species. Grain sorghum {Sorghum ...
-
(2001-12-13)Grazing and browsing can have a neutral, positive or negative effect on rangeland plants. This publication explains the effects of grazing and browsing on plants, details the indicators of overuse of the range, and lists ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)Survival studies performed on the Ax-2 strain of Dictyostelium discoideum demonstrated that the vegetative cells were resistant to UV light at 254 nm. The survival curve began with a broad shoulder and eventually declined ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)Fluridone (1-methyl-3-phenyl-5((3-trifluoromethyl)-phenyl)-4(lH)-pyridinone) applied in the spring at 0.45 kg/ha or more effectively controlled the annual grasses and broadleaf weeds present in cotton on two soil types. ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Two crops of Fe efficient (RTx2536) and inefficient (BTx378) sorghum were grown in a greenhouse study both with and without added CaCO3 in sand which was crushed and separated by sedimentation techniques to obtain particle ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1982)Pecan leaf surfaces were characterized in relation to tree age, leaf age, and leaf surface. Three types of trichomes were found. Awn-like hairs were the most common trichome type on juvenile trees and reached their greatest ...
-
(2001-01-11)Photographs, plant descriptions, and symptoms of poisoning help ranchers identify toxic plants that may be harmful to their livestock in West Texas. There is also information on grazing, livestock management, and toxic ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1987)The internal microflora associated with the salivary gland, whole body, and egg of the cotton fleahopper (CFH), Pseudatomoscelis seriatus (Reuter) (Hemiptera: Miridae), were isolated and identified. Approximately 60% of ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1988)Significant differences were observed among sorghum cultivars in the amount of MDMV-A accumulated over time. Virus concentration (estimated as ELISA values, A410 nm) increased for 30 days following inoculation and then ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Field and greenhouse studies were conducted at College Station, Texas to investigate the interrelationships between biological N2 fixation and seed yield in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.]. Seed yield of inoculated ...
-
(2009-04-23)Junipers (or cedars) are a major management concern on Texas rangelands. This publication discusses physical characteristics of the two major species in western Texas--ashe juniper and redberry juniper. Watershed management, ...

Methomyl-induced phytotoxicity in cotton (G̲o̲s̲s̲y̲p̲i̲u̲m̲ h̲i̲r̲s̲u̲t̲u̲m̲ L.) (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Understanding the causes of insecticide-induced stress to crop plants could help to increase yields. This study examined phytotoxicity of methomyl (S-methyl-N- [(methylcarbamoyl)oxy]-thioacetimidate) on cotton (Gossvpium ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)The basic objectives of this study was to build a model that describes the physiology of sinks. This also includes the process of unloading assimilates from the phloem. The metabolic steps necessary to describe a typical ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)Experiments were conducted to predict transpirational water loss and duration of shipping/storage of Chrysanthemum morifolium under different temperatures and initial soil water levels. Transpiration rate, water potential, ...
