Water Use of Landscape Trees During Pot-In-Pot Production and During Establishment in the Landscape
… precise irrigation regimes for nursery managers in Virginia. Maximum plant growth with minimum input of water and fertilizer is becoming increasingly important. Therefore, water use and growth of red and sugar maple (Acer rubrum L. 'Franksred' and Acer saccharum Marsh.) were studied during two …

The Effects of Rootstock Selection and Carbon-based Fertility Amendments on Apple Orchard Productivity and Soil Community Ecology
In apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) orchards, rootstock genotype, and soil fertility management practices impact soil fertility, plant associated soil microbial communities, and orchard productivity. Apple growers select rootstocks to confer beneficial traits, including size control, precocity, and …

Impact of surface area and porosity on the cooling performance of evaporative cooling devices
Evaporative cooling devices are low-cost, low-energy solutions for post-harvest storage of fruits and vegetables on farmlands. Surface area and porosity are two design parameters that affect the cooling devices' evaporation rate and cooling performance. Both design parameters lack prior systematic …

Observations of mycorrhizal inoculation of pin and scarlet oak production in containers
… as highly beneficial for the host plant. Increased growth, water relations, nutrient acquisition, amelioration of the effects of metal toxicity, and increased resistance to pathogens are all benefits attributed to plants colonized by mycorrhizal fungi. A large body of literature exists …

Post-Transplant Root Production, Mortality, and Periodicity of Landscape-Sized Shade Trees
A more thorough knowledge of rooting behavior of transplanted trees is needed to better understand plant establishment. The objectives of this research were to: 1) determine if transplant timing affected root system regeneration of northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) and willow oak (Q. phellos L.), …
