1. A comparison of selfed lines of corn and first generation crosses between them

Author:
Jorgenson, L.; Brewbaker, H.E.
Source:
Agronomy journal 1927 v.19 no.9 pp. 819-830
ISSN:

Subject:
crossing; Zea mays; inbred lines; self-pollination
Abstract:
... An investigation has been made of 10 selfed lines of maize within a variety and the F1 hybrids between them. These lines had been selfed from three to four generations but appeared to be relatively homozygous on the basis of a comparison of the selfed and sib-pollinated lines. 2. Both high and low yielders were obtained among the hybrids of each of the selfed lines, but some are distinctly superio ...

4. Inheritance of awnedness in rice

Author:
Jones, J.W.

Agronomy journal 1927 v.19 no.9 pp. 830-839
ISSN:

Subject:
crossing; Oryza sativa; variety trials; inheritance (genetics); California
Abstract:
... 1. The crosses Butte X Colusa and Colusa X Italian Red were used in the study of the inheritance of awnedness reported in this paper. Butte is a fully awned variety, while Italian Red is partly awned, and Colusa is a variety awnless under all conditions. 2. Awnedness is partially dominant to awnlessness in F1 and the F2 of the Butte X Colusa cross segregated in the phenotypic ratio of nine awned t ...

6. Relative lime needs of sulfate of ammonia and nitrate of soda and of different crops

Abstract:
... This paper contains the results for 1915 to 1926 of a field comparison, conducted since 1893, of equal amounts of nitrogen in sulfate of ammonia and nitrate of soda accompanied by liberal amounts of phosphorus and potassium. Prior to 1915, each source of nitrogen had been accompanied by an equal amount of lime, and also had been used without lime. Subsequently, extra lime was applied to the more-l ...

Abstract:
... Blocks of dry soils, or soils made into balls and dried, tend to disintegrate or slake into their ultimate single particles or into compound particles or to crumble into small pieces when placed in an excess of water. An attempt was made to investigate the influence of different reagents of various concentrations upon the rate and character of slaking of soils of different types. The reagents empl ...

Abstract:
... In a study of the inflorescence of rice grown on Substation No. 4 of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station observations were made on 45 panicles, including 7,902 florets and representing six varieties or selections. No blooming occurred before 8:00 a.m. and none after 4:00 p.m. The maximum number bloomed between 11:00 a.m. and 12:00 noon. The majority of the rice panicles completed blooming in ...

11. Viability and composition of "seed" potatoes as affected by climatic conditions and by various other factors

Author:
Wessels, P.H.; Hartwell, B.L.

Subject:
Solanum tuberosum; crop yield; nitrogen content; climatic factors
Abstract:
... Especially the later varieties of potatoes grown at the Rhode Island Station are about a fourth less valuable for seed than those grown in northern New England. They progressively deteriorate even in spite of tuber-unit selection. The inferiority of the homegrown seed exhibited itself largely by a considerable admixture of inferior plants presumably affected by one or more of the so-called degener ...
