Journal ArticleDOI
Heritabilities of Water-Use Efficiency Traits and Correlations with Agronomic Traits in Water-Stressed Alfalfa
TL;DR: The positive relationship between Δ and shoot yield suggests that germplasms should be evaluated for both Δ and yield when characterizing alfalfa for high WUE to minimize potential yield reductions that may result from selection based only on Δ.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Harvest Maturity on the Chemical Composition of Cascade and Willamette Hops
TL;DR: In this article, changes in the chemical compositio-tion of hops have been discussed, with the goal of obtaining the highest quality hops possible, with a common goal to obtain the best hops possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Variation for yield, water-use efficiency, and canopy morphology among nine alfalfa germplasms
TL;DR: Differences in stomatal conductance or photosynthetic capacity exist among the nine populations of alfalfa, and that germplasms with low Δ tended to have slower growth and development rates under irrigated conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
QTL mapping of powdery mildew susceptibility in hop (Humulus lupulus L.)
John A. Henning,M. Shaun Townsend,David H. Gent,Nahla V. Bassil,Paul D. Matthews,Emily J. Buck,Ron Beatson +6 more
TL;DR: This is the first report in hop identifying molecular markers linked to QTLs associated with disease susceptibility, and the presence or absence of the two AFLP markers bordering the QTL on C7 defined susceptibility in offspring.
Journal ArticleDOI
AFLP Discrimination of Native North American and Cultivated Hop
TL;DR: Results from this research suggest incorporating the native American hop accessions studied in this experiment would enhance the genetic diversity within hop breeding programs.
