Other claims from this paper (7)

Intervention effect Sulfur application increased aboveground biomass.
Intervention effect Sulfur application increased leaf sulfur concentration.
Intervention effect Sulfur application increased chlorophyll meter readings.

Methods of Reducing Crop Variation in Apple Trials

C. S. Moore; S. C. Pearce Journal of Horticultural Science 1976. doi:10.1080/00221589.1976.11514723

Other claims from this paper (7)

Method / resource In an apple trial, accumulating four years of crops gave a lower coefficient of variation than two years.
Method / resource Covariance adjustment by previous crops was useful, with two years of previous crop as good as four years.
Method / resource Adjustment by trunk girth was less successful than previous-crop covariance but could be recommended in conjunction with previous crop.
Method / resource Number of fruits was a more variable record than crop weight.
Method / resource Removing positional variation by analysis of variance did not have a major effect in reducing variation.
Method / resource Multi-tree plots proved effective in reducing variation, since adjacent tree crops are not highly correlated.
Method / resource Covariance adjustment of multi-tree plots was not successful.

Comparison of Kasugamycin to Traditional Bactericides for the Management of Bacterial Spot on Tomato

Gary E. Vallad; Kenneth L. Pernezny; Botond Balogh; et al. HortScience 2010. doi:10.21273/hortsci.45.12.1834

Other claims from this paper (5)

Intervention effect Kasugamycin reduced tomato bacterial spot severity by up to 37.5% versus untreated control in a greenhouse.
Intervention effect Kasugamycin alone controlled tomato bacterial spot as effectively as copper plus mancozeb in four field trials.
Intervention effect Kasugamycin mixed with copper plus mancozeb gave no benefit for bacterial spot control in four trials.
Intervention effect Alternating kasugamycin with copper plus mancozeb improved bacterial spot control in one of three trials.
Mechanism Rapid resistance development in field X. perforans may shorten the effective use of kasugamycin.

Intervention effect Preseeding spring glyphosate improved weed control over fall 2,4-D.
Intervention effect Preseeding spring glyphosate reduced dockage relative to fall 2,4-D.
Intervention effect Preseeding spring glyphosate increased canola yield and net return relative to fall 2,4-D.
Intervention effect One or two in-crop glyphosate applications gave similar weed control, dockage and canola yield to the full traditional regime.
Intervention effect In-crop glyphosate gave superior weed control and canola yield to the simpler traditional regimes.
Intervention effect In-crop glyphosate reduced dockage versus the simpler traditional regimes.
Intervention effect In-crop glyphosate produced higher net revenues than other treatments.
Intervention effect The glyphosate system used less herbicide active ingredient than most traditional regimes, especially with one application.

Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer markedly increased seed yield in coastal dunes.
Intervention effect Nitrogen fertilizer increased flowering-spike density.
Intervention effect Potassium additions provided little short-term advantage.
Recommendation Rapid-release nitrogen at 50-100 kg ha-1 could produce seed cost-effectively from a smaller dune area or increase seed output.
Intervention effect Slow-release fertilizer improved seedling establishment during the first two seasons on volcanic sandy barrens.
Intervention effect Annual rapid-release fertilizer produced similar tiller density and biomass after four years more economically.
Observation Untreated control seedling populations became extinct over four years.
Intervention effect Severe phosphorus deprivation increased dry-mass allocation to roots and rhizomes.
Intervention effect Potassium deprivation increased dry-mass allocation to above-ground parts.
Intervention effect Fertilizer failed to rejuvenate seed production in moribund late-successional stands.
Intervention effect Where vegetation responded, fertilizer stimulated competing species at the expense of Leymus arenarius.
