Zertuche, Manuel I. (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)The effect of different irrigation treatments, various levels of N and K, and exogenous applications of gibberellins (GA), abscisic acid (ABA), XE-1019 (anti-GA), and fluridone (anti-ABA), on vivipary of pecans was studied. ...
-
Matta, F. B. (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1977)The influence of growth hormones, container design, and grafting techniques on more rapid propagation of pecan cultivars on seedling rootstocks was studied. GA₃ at 5000 ppm significantly promoted stem enlargement of seedlings ...

Factors influencing the population dynamics of brown soft scale, Coccus hesperidum L. in South Texas Hart, William Gardner (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)The brown soft scale in South Texas is usually controlled by a complex of parasites. Observations made over a ten year period showed that the scale was disrupted by drift of ethyl and methyl parathion from applications ...

Shafer, Warren Eri (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)The foliar absorption and cuticular penetration characteristics of selected potassium compounds, and the cuticular penetration characteristics of urea, phenol, 2-nitrophenol and 4-nitrophenol were studied. A wide range of ...
-
Picchioni, Geno Anthony (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)Rootstocks which restrict uptake of toxic elements, such as Na, Cl, and boron (B), may increase resistance of grafted trees to salt and B stresses. The objectives of this study were to evaluate i) growth, ion uptake, and ...
-
Ismail, Mohamed Mustafa (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)Twenty-five year old Stuart pecan trees were drip irrigated during the 1976 and 1977 growing seasons. Treatments consisted if 132, 283 and 454 liters per day and a control which received no supplemental irrigation. The ...
-
Stein, Larry A. (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Shuck disorders are a common production problem of Texas pecan producers. The shuck disorders observed in this study were not caused by stem end blight or shuck dieback. The principal shuck disorders studied were called ...

Husain, Akbar (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1965)Investigations were undertaken to determine the causes of high rate of pollen abortion in Bruce plum (Prunus salicina x P. angustifolia). Microspore and pollen development in the pollen-fertile Methley plum (P. salicina x ...
-
Liao, Huey-Tarn (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1984)Field studies were conducted at College Station, Texas in 1982 and 1983 to examine population dynamics of 3 species of pecan aphids. The results indicate that pecan, Carya illinoensis (Wangenheim) K. Koch supports higher ...

Ou, Shyi-Kuan (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1989)The temperature effect on germination response and physiological activities were compared between sprouting resistant northern pecan [Carya illinoensis (Wang) K. Kock] cultivars and sprouting susceptible southern cultivars. ...
-
Gustafson, William August (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1978)This study attempted to develop a technique for propagating adult phase cuttings as clonal rootstocks that could be used to produce trees capable of uniform growth and ion absorption. Both hardwood and semi-hardwood adult ...
-
McKinley, Craig Roy (Texas A&M University. Libraries, )The failure to form an adequate union between the scion and rootstock was found to be the greatest cause of first-year graft failure. Other causes of death were relatively insignificant. Grafting losses could be expected ...
