Publications (WR)

This illustrated guide was prepared to provide the botanical community, land managers, and other interested persons with a reference that describes and locates the twelve plant taxa currently being considered by the Fish and Wildlife Service for threatened or endangered status in or around the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. The guide is intended to assist managers of government agencies in determining the presence of these species and in defining management programs for their protection. The guide should be consulted prior to any construction project. If a potential conflict is identified, an onsite evaluation should be conducted early in the …

Pasture Species Research, C. M. Francis

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

EARLY MATURING MEDICS Early maturing Libyan lines with some tolerance to bluegreen aphids were sown at 6 sites, five in Western Australia and one in South Australia. Seed yield and hard seed data are currently being collated. Maturity and vigour was assessed at all sites and many of the new introductions are earlier than cv. Harbinger and its equal in vegetative growth. A much larger range (300 lines) was grown at Medina and will be introduced into country sites next year.

Kabatiella Research. In cooperation with Dr. D.L. Chatel, screening of introductions for resistance to Kabatiella caulivora continued in 1980. …

Influence Of Planting System On Surface Soil, Physical Conditions And Soil Water Relations, D Tennant Jan 1980

Influence Of Planting System On Surface Soil, Physical Conditions And Soil Water Relations, D Tennant

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

Influence of planting system on surface soil, physical conditions and soil water relations. The availability of soil water for crop use can this way be influenced by planting system. Various aspects of soil water relations were examined in varying detail at three sites - Wongan Hills, Avondale and Merredin, over the 1979 and 1980 growing seasons. Some of this soil water data are presented here. The Department of Agriculture initiated a programme in 1977 to investigate and compare crop performance under several planting systems. This project was part of this programme and had as its objectives: 1. Measurement of soil …

The Effects Of N-Serve On The Availability Of Urea And Ureaformaldehyde Nitrogen On Lolium Perenne L., Ronald E. Schroll Jan 1980

The Effects Of N-Serve On The Availability Of Urea And Ureaformaldehyde Nitrogen On Lolium Perenne L., Ronald E. Schroll

Masters Theses

Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the effect of "N-Serve" (DOW) on the availability of urea nitrogen and the subsequent greening effect on perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) seedlings as compared to the availability of nitrogen and subsequent greening from a controlled release ureaformaldehyde fertilizer. A low organic matter sandy loam soil and a high organic matter clay loam soil were used in this study. Soil treatments of urea and ureaformaldehyde fertilizers were applied and incorporated at concentrations of 0, 25, 38, and 50 ppm-N. N-Serve at concentrations of 0.25, 0.50, and 1.0 ppm active ingredient were applied and …
