Eating watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) is a traditional part of the Fourth of July holidays in the United States; however, growing watermelon in Missouri, USA for the local Fourth of July market requires an early growing season start (beginning of April) under protected culture because of low temperatures and the risk of freezing. Therefore, ‘Yellow Doll’ watermelon production was investigated under low tunnel (LT) and caterpillar high tunnel [HT (walk-in movable two-row tunnel)], and the economic feasibility was assessed by marginal analysis for both protected cultures. Planting in early April allowed harvest to start 1 to 2 weeks before the target market date. In addition, yield increased under HT in comparison with LT and open field (Op). Marginal analysis under the conditions of this study and prices obtained from local farmers’ markets showed a positive marginal rate of return for HT in comparison with the control Op. The marginal rate of return sensitivity study suggests that differences in marketable yield of 300–400 and 200–250 lb/1200 ft2 are necessary under HT and LT, respectively, for the protected culture to be economically feasible with watermelon prices above $0.75/lb and/or $1.00/lb as obtained in local farmers’ markets. Therefore, it is possible and there is potential to produce watermelon under protected culture for the local Fourth of July market. A gain in market share with potential premium prices for watermelon may increase the sustainability of small and medium-size specialty crop farmers in Missouri. To accomplish this, it is necessary to use early cultivars (70 to 80 days to maturity), plant in early April with transplants grown in greenhouses, and make sure to manage tunnels properly to maintain favorable growing conditions, protect against freezing temperatures and ensuring good pollination.
吃西瓜(Citrullus lanatus)是美国7月4日假期的传统组成部分;然而,在美国密苏里州为当地7月4日的市场种植西瓜需要在保护文化下提前开始生长季节(4月初),因为低温和冻结的风险。因此,研究了“黄娃娃”西瓜在低隧道(LT)和履带式高隧道(HT)下的生产情况,并通过边际分析对两种保护栽培的经济可行性进行了评估。在4月初播种,可以在目标市场日期前1到2周开始收获。此外,与旱地和裸地相比,高温处理下产量增加(Op)。本研究条件下的边际分析和从当地农贸市场获得的价格表明,与对照相比,高温处理的边际收益率为正。边际收益率敏感性研究表明,在高温处理和低温处理下,市场产量分别达到300-400磅和200-250磅/1200平方英尺是必要的。保护栽培在经济上可行,西瓜在当地农贸市场的价格高于0.75美元/磅和/或1.00美元/磅。因此,在保护栽培下生产西瓜是可能的,也有潜力为当地的7月4日市场提供西瓜。市场份额的增加和西瓜潜在的溢价可能会增加密苏里州中小型特种作物农民的可持续性。为了实现这一目标,有必要使用早期品种(70至80天成熟),在4月初在温室中种植移栽,并确保适当管理隧道,以保持有利的生长条件,防止冰冻温度并确保良好的授粉。

Dry farming has been defined as rainfed crop production in a climate with more than 20 inches of annual precipitation, but where most precipitation falls outside the growing season. Dry farming is garnering interest in the western United States because it allows farmers to produce crops despite a lack of access to irrigation or water rights or to eliminate the infrastructure, labor, and energy costs of irrigation systems. Sites have differing suitability for dry farming, and some sites that can be farmed with irrigation will perform poorly when dry-farmed. To determine site factors associated with dry farm yield and fruit quality, trials of ‘Early Girl’ tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) and ‘North Georgia Candy Roaster’ winter squash (Cucurbita maxima) were conducted at 17 participant farms in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, USA, in 2018 and 2019. The mean blossom-end rot (BER) incidence was higher in the Willamette Valley than in coastal California; this was probably because of the Willamette Valley’s hotter and drier climate. Increasing the available water-holding capacity of soil, total available water (available water-holding capacity of the soil plus in-season rainfall), native productivity rating, soil pH (0–6 inches and 24–36 inches), soil nutrient concentrations (0–6 inches and 24–36 inches), and in-season rainfall were positively associated with at least one measure of tomato or winter squash yield, fruit number, or average fruit weight. An earlier planting date was positively associated with winter squash total yield and total fruit number in 2019. The water-limited yield potential (the total yield potential if water was the only limiting factor) for 20-ft2/plant plots was estimated to be 2.2 tons/acre per inch for tomato and 2.8 tons/acre per inch for winter squash. In 2019, high-density plantings (20 ft2/plant) had higher tomato and winter squash mean total yields, mean total fruit numbers, and mean tomato unblemished yield than low-density plantings (40 ft2/plant). In 2019, planting tomato at 20 ft2/plant decreased the mean BER incidence by 15.6% when compared with planting tomato at 40 ft2/plant.
旱作农业被定义为在年降水量超过20英寸的气候下生产雨养作物,但大部分降水发生在生长季节之外。旱作农业正在美国西部引起人们的兴趣,因为它允许农民在缺乏灌溉或水权的情况下种植作物,或者消除灌溉系统的基础设施、劳动力和能源成本。不同地点对旱作的适宜性不同,一些可以灌溉的地点在旱作时表现不佳。为了确定与旱田产量和水果质量相关的场地因素,2018年和2019年在美国俄勒冈州威拉米特山谷的17个参与农场进行了“早女”番茄(茄茄)和“北乔治亚糖果烘焙师”冬瓜(葫芦)的试验。威拉米特河谷的平均花端腐病发生率高于加州沿海地区;这可能是因为威拉米特山谷的气候更热更干燥。增加土壤有效持水量、总有效持水量(土壤有效持水量加上当季降雨量)、本地生产力等级、土壤pH值(0-6英寸和24-36英寸)、土壤养分浓度(0-6英寸和24-36英寸)和当季降雨量与番茄或冬瓜产量、果实数量或平均果实重量的至少一项指标呈正相关。提前播种与2019年冬瓜总产量和总果数呈正相关。据估计,20平方英尺/株地块的限水产量潜力(如果水分是唯一限制因素,则总产量潜力)为西红柿2.2吨/英亩每英寸,冬瓜2.8吨/英亩每英寸。2019年,高密度种植(20平方英尺/株)的番茄和冬南瓜平均总产量、平均总果数和平均番茄无缺陷产量高于低密度种植(40平方英尺/株)。2019年,种植20平方英尺/株的番茄比种植40平方英尺/株的番茄减少了15.6%的平均BER发病率。

The majority of strawberry (Fragaria ×ananassa) production in Florida, USA, uses bare-root transplants that require large volumes of water via sprinkler irrigation for establishment. Although plug transplants can be established without sprinkler irrigation, they generally are more than double the cost of bare-root transplants. We hypothesized that the use of early-planted (September) plug transplants on white-on-black mulch without impact sprinkler irrigation (WP system) would be more profitable and conserve water compared with the typical grower standard practice of black plastic mulch and bare-root transplants planted in mid-October that were established using impact sprinkler irrigation for heat mitigation for 12 d after transplanting (BB system). ‘Florida Radiance’ plug transplants and bare-root transplants were used in the 2-year study that was conducted at Citra and Balm, FL, USA. Water use and early and total strawberry yield of the two systems were compared. Water use in both locations was lower with the WP system than the BB system. Early yield was higher by 683 and 346 8-lb flats/acre with the WP system at Citra and Balm, respectively, compared with the BB system. The total marketable yield with the WP system was 2062 flats/acre and 1917 flats/acre greater at Citra and Balm, respectively, than with the BB system. Partial budget analysis indicated that the WP system at Citra increased the net profit by $14,657/acre, whereas a net profit of $13,765/acre was obtained at Balm. These results will inform decision-making about cropping system modification that can be adopted by Florida strawberry growers to considerably reduce water use in an economically feasible manner.
美国佛罗里达州的大部分草莓(Fragaria ×ananassa)生产采用裸根移栽,需要通过喷灌大量的水来建立。虽然不需要喷灌也可以种植插秧,但它们的成本通常是裸根插秧的两倍多。我们假设,与典型的种植者标准做法(黑色塑料薄膜覆盖和10月中旬种植的裸根移栽,移栽后使用冲击喷灌(BB系统)缓解12 d的热量)相比,在白对黑覆盖上使用早播(9月)插拔移栽,不使用冲击喷灌(WP系统),将更有效益和节约用水。在美国佛罗里达州Citra and Balm进行的为期2年的研究中,使用了“Florida Radiance”插头移植和裸根移植。比较了两种栽培体系的水分利用、草莓早产量和总产量。在这两个地点,WP系统的用水量都低于BB系统。与BB系统相比,在Citra和Balm, WP系统的早期产量分别提高了683和346个8磅单位/英亩。WP系统的总可售产量在Citra和Balm分别比BB系统高2062单位/英亩和1917单位/英亩。部分预算分析表明,Citra的WP系统使净利润增加了14,657美元/英亩,而Balm的净利润为13,765美元/英亩。这些结果将为佛罗里达州草莓种植者采用的种植系统修改决策提供信息,从而以经济可行的方式大大减少用水量。

Biochar is considered an environmentally friendly potting mix ingredient because it sequesters carbon, and its biomass can be obtained from renewable resources. If the biomass is obtained from the undesirable eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana), then it has the additional benefit of helping to curtail its spread and protect natural habitats. If consumers recognize this benefit, then they may be willing to pay a premium for potting mix made from eastern redcedar biochar. This study used an internet survey of potting mix customers to measure the size of this potential premium. The results showed that consumers were willing to pay $2.42/ft3 more for potting mix containing 20% eastern redcedar biochar (by weight). This premium was even larger for respondents who were aware of the weedy nature of eastern redcedar.
生物炭被认为是一种环保的盆栽混合成分,因为它可以隔离碳,而且它的生物量可以从可再生资源中获得。如果生物质来自不受欢迎的东部红杉(Juniperus virginia),那么它有额外的好处,有助于减少其传播和保护自然栖息地。如果消费者认识到这种好处,那么他们可能愿意为用东部红杉生物炭制成的盆栽混合物支付溢价。这项研究使用了对盆栽混合客户的互联网调查来衡量这种潜在溢价的大小。结果显示,消费者愿意为含有20%东部红杉生物炭的盆栽混合物多支付2.42美元/平方英尺(按重量计算)。对于那些知道东部红杉的杂草性质的受访者来说,这种溢价甚至更大。

Spring establishment of turfgrass that is managed without herbicides is subject to weed competition, resulting in reduced turfgrass cover. The objective of this experiment was to find an acceptable method for spring turfgrass establishment without the use of pesticides. Thirty-six treatments consisting of three soil amendments combined with three turfgrass species or mixes, and four topdressings or fertilizers in a randomized complete block design were tested. Nutrient-deficient fill soil, fill soil blended with topsoil, and fill soil blended with leaf compost were used as growing media. ‘Firenza’ tall fescue (Schedonorus arundinaceus), an 80/20 mix of ‘Nu Destiny’ kentucky bluegrass (Poa pratensis) and ‘Nexus XD’ perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne), respectively, and ‘Firefly’ hard fescue (Festuca trachyphylla) were grown with topdressings consisting of biosolids, ash-amended biosolids, 16N–12.2P–3.3K starter fertilizer, and an unfertilized control. The treatments were mowed at 3 inches about once per week. Irrigation was supplied by an overhead sprinkler system (1 inch/week). During the 2010 field study, treatments of tall fescue established in a leaf compost–amended root zone were significantly denser and had a greater percentage of cover (P ≤ 0.05) compared with all other treatments. In 2011, treatments of tall fescue established in fill soil– and leaf compost–amended soils were significantly denser and had a greater percentage of cover (P ≤ 0.05) compared with all other treatments. Kentucky bluegrass/perennial ryegrass and hard fescue treatments had significantly lower (P ≤ 0.05) levels of establishment compared with tall fescue. Topdressing treatments resulted in no significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) in turfgrass establishment.
不使用除草剂的草坪春季种植受到杂草竞争的影响,导致草坪覆盖面积减少。本试验的目的是寻找一种可接受的不使用农药的春季草坪草建立方法。在随机完全区组设计中,采用三种土壤改良剂与三种草坪草或混合物,以及四种追肥或肥料组成的36种处理进行了试验。采用缺养分填土、填土与表土混合、填土与叶片堆肥混合作为生长介质。“Firenza”高羊茅(Schedonorus arundinaceus)、“Nu Destiny”肯塔基蓝草(Poa pratensis)、“Nexus XD”多年生黑麦草(Lolium perenne)和“Firefly”硬羊茅(Festuca trachyphylla)分别以80比20的比例混合种植,并施用由生物固体、灰改性生物固体、16N-12.2P-3.3K启动肥料和未施肥的对照组成的肥料。每次修剪3英寸,每周一次。灌溉由顶部喷水系统提供(1英寸/周)。在2010年的田间研究中,与其他处理相比,在叶片堆肥改良的根区建立的高羊茅处理密度显著增加,盖度显著提高(P≤0.05)。2011年,高羊茅在填土和叶片堆肥土壤上的处理密度显著高于其他处理(P≤0.05)。与高羊茅相比,肯塔基蓝草/多年生黑麦草和硬羊茅处理的建成度显著降低(P≤0.05)。追肥处理对草坪草成活率无显著影响(P≤0.05)。

Evaluation of Commercial Viability of Eco-friendly Alternatives to Traditional Floral Foam and Their Effects on Vase Life of Five Species of Cut Flowers 评估传统花卉泡沫的环保替代品的商业可行性及其对五种切花花瓶寿命的影响

Increasingly, consumers are indicating that they would be willing to pay a premium for floral designs from a more sustainable floral provider. During the past several years, more environmentally sustainable floral foams and foam alternative media have been developed as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional floral foams comprised of phenol-formaldehyde plastics. Phenol-formaldehyde foam breaks down into microplastics, which ends up in landfills, soils, and waterways—including the planet’s oceans—if not disposed of properly. Eco-friendly foam alternatives are made from natural materials such as basalt minerals and coconut (Cocos nucifera) fiber (coir). The objective of this study was to investigate eco-friendly floral substrates for their commercial viability in the floral industry by analyzing the vase life of five of the most commonly use cut flower species in traditional vs. eco-friendly foam alternatives. Flowers selected for the experiment included ‘Freedom’ rose (Rosa hybrid), ‘Orange Queen’ alstroemeria (Alstroemeria hybrid), ‘Atlantis Yellow’ chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum), ‘Pink Nelson’ carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus), and ‘Million Star’ baby’s breath (Gypsophila paniculate). The flowers were selected based on their importance to the floral industry with regard to their overall volume of use in floral arrangements and volume of production. The findings from this study indicate the traditional phenol-formaldehyde–based floral foam maintained vase life longer for a majority of the flowers tested when compared with basalt floral fiber medium and coir pouches. However, the basalt floral fiber medium maintained a vase life of more than 7 days for all flowers tested, indicating it is an adequate medium to use in retail floral design production. The coir pouch did not maintain the customer-expected vase life of 7 days for all but one of the cultivars tested. This indicates that coir pouches are generally not suitable for traditional everyday retail floral design use, but could potentially be acceptable for special occasion designs in which the consumer prefers or specifies a more sustainable approach and/or can accept a shorter vase life.
越来越多的消费者表示,他们愿意为更具可持续性的花艺供应商提供的花艺设计支付更高的价格。在过去的几年里,更环保可持续的花卉泡沫和泡沫替代介质已经开发出来,作为传统的由酚醛塑料组成的花卉泡沫的环保替代品。酚醛泡沫会分解成微塑料,如果处理不当,最终会进入垃圾填埋场、土壤和水道——包括地球的海洋。环保泡沫替代品由天然材料制成,如玄武岩矿物和椰子纤维(Cocos nucifera)。本研究的目的是通过分析五种最常用的切花品种在传统和环保泡沫替代品中的花瓶寿命,来调查生态友好型花卉基质在花卉产业中的商业可行性。选择用于实验的花卉包括“自由”玫瑰(Rosa杂交品种)、“橙色女王”alstroemeria (alstroemeria杂交品种)、“亚特兰蒂斯黄”菊花(Dendranthema grandflorum)、“粉红纳尔逊”康乃馨(Dianthus caryophyllus)和“百万星”婴儿呼吸(Gypsophila paniculate)。这些花的选择是基于它们对花卉产业的重要性,以及它们在插花和产量方面的总体使用量。这项研究的结果表明,与玄武岩花纤维介质和椰胶袋相比,传统的酚醛基花泡沫使大多数花的花瓶寿命更长。然而,玄武岩花纤维介质对所有测试的花保持了超过7天的花瓶寿命,这表明它是一种足够的介质,用于零售花卉设计生产。椰胶袋没有保持客户期望的7天花瓶寿命,除了一个品种测试。这表明,椰绒花袋通常不适合传统的日常零售花艺设计,但对于消费者喜欢或指定更可持续的方法和/或可以接受较短花瓶寿命的特殊场合设计,可能是可以接受的。
{"title":"Evaluation of Commercial Viability of Eco-friendly Alternatives to Traditional Floral Foam and Their Effects on Vase Life of Five Species of Cut Flowers","authors":"Coleman L. Etheredge","doi":"10.21273/horttech05292-23","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21273/horttech05292-23","url":null,"abstract":"Increasingly, consumers are indicating that they would be willing to pay a premium for floral designs from a more sustainable floral provider. During the past several years, more environmentally sustainable floral foams and foam alternative media have been developed as an eco-friendly alternative to traditional floral foams comprised of phenol-formaldehyde plastics. Phenol-formaldehyde foam breaks down into microplastics, which ends up in landfills, soils, and waterways—including the planet’s oceans—if not disposed of properly. Eco-friendly foam alternatives are made from natural materials such as basalt minerals and coconut (Cocos nucifera) fiber (coir). The objective of this study was to investigate eco-friendly floral substrates for their commercial viability in the floral industry by analyzing the vase life of five of the most commonly use cut flower species in traditional vs. eco-friendly foam alternatives. Flowers selected for the experiment included ‘Freedom’ rose (Rosa hybrid), ‘Orange Queen’ alstroemeria (Alstroemeria hybrid), ‘Atlantis Yellow’ chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum), ‘Pink Nelson’ carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus), and ‘Million Star’ baby’s breath (Gypsophila paniculate). The flowers were selected based on their importance to the floral industry with regard to their overall volume of use in floral arrangements and volume of production. The findings from this study indicate the traditional phenol-formaldehyde–based floral foam maintained vase life longer for a majority of the flowers tested when compared with basalt floral fiber medium and coir pouches. However, the basalt floral fiber medium maintained a vase life of more than 7 days for all flowers tested, indicating it is an adequate medium to use in retail floral design production. The coir pouch did not maintain the customer-expected vase life of 7 days for all but one of the cultivars tested. This indicates that coir pouches are generally not suitable for traditional everyday retail floral design use, but could potentially be acceptable for special occasion designs in which the consumer prefers or specifies a more sustainable approach and/or can accept a shorter vase life.","PeriodicalId":13144,"journal":{"name":"Horttechnology","volume":" 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138617917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Natural swimming pools (NSPs) rely on the interaction of bog vegetation, bacteria, and substrate to maintain water quality. Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) levels in NSPs are critical because of their involvement in eutrophication. We conducted a 15-week greenhouse study to address the significant literature gap regarding nutrient removal capabilities of substrates and vegetation in the low-nutrient environment of NSPs. We used mass balance analyses to compare the performances of four substrates [river gravel (control), recycled glass, expanded clay, expanded shale] and two plant species [blue flag iris (Iris versicolor) and lizard’s tail (Saururus cernuus)] under two flow conditions: free water surface and subsurface flow. At the end of the experiment, except for the recycled glass group, all other substrate groups reduced water nitrate (NO3) levels to less than 30 mg⋅L−1, the standard of the 2011 Forschungsgesellschaft Landschaftsentwicklung Landschaftsbau (FLL) guidelines. However, only the expanded clay group closely approached the P standard (≤0.01 mg⋅L−1). Expanded clay and expanded shale demonstrated potential as substrates for NSP bogs. The final aboveground biomass dry weight was strongly negatively correlated with the final NO3 and P water concentrations. However, direct plant uptake proved insufficient to remove all nutrient inputs, especially for P. Except for the recycled glass group (34%), a significant portion of N (79%–90%) from total N added was removed by aboveground biomass. However, P uptake by biomass was substantially lower (18%–37%). With acceptable vigor and biomass accumulation, blue flag iris may be a suitable species for vegetated NSPs, whereas lizard’s tail is not because of uncertain establishment. Compared with controlling N, managing P for FLL standards in NSPs will be more challenging. Our work begins to fill the essential gap in the NSP literature regarding nutrient removal capabilities of substrates and vegetation. Future work should continue to study alternative substrates and plant species for P removal, particularly in field conditions and over longer periods.
天然游泳池(NSPs)依靠沼泽植被、细菌和基质的相互作用来维持水质。NSPs中的氮(N)和磷(P)水平至关重要,因为它们参与了富营养化。我们进行了一项为期15周的温室研究,以解决关于NSPs低营养环境下基质和植被去除营养物质能力的重大文献空白。采用质量平衡分析方法,比较了四种基质(对照)、再生玻璃、膨胀粘土、膨胀页岩)和两种植物(蓝旗鸢尾(iris versicolor)和蜥蜴尾(Saururus cernuus)在自由水面和地下两种流动条件下的性能。实验结束时,除再生玻璃组外,所有其他基片组将水中硝酸盐(NO3)水平降至低于2011年Forschungsgesellschaft Landschaftsentwicklung Landschaftsbau (FLL)指南的标准30 mg⋅L−1。只有膨胀粘土组接近P标准(≤0.01 mg·L−1)。膨胀粘土和膨胀页岩被证明有潜力作为NSP沼泽的基质。最终地上生物量干重与最终NO3和P水浓度呈极显著负相关。然而,植物的直接吸收不足以去除所有的养分输入,尤其是磷,除了回收玻璃组(34%)外,总氮中很大一部分(79%-90%)是由地上生物量去除的。然而,生物量对磷的吸收明显较低(18%-37%)。蓝旗鸢尾花具有良好的活力和生物量积累,可能是植被NSPs的适宜物种,而蜥蜴尾巴由于不确定的建立而不适合。与控制氮素相比,管理氮素对NSPs的FLL标准更具挑战性。我们的工作开始填补NSP文献中关于基质和植被的营养去除能力的基本空白。未来的工作应继续研究除磷的替代基质和植物物种,特别是在田间条件下和较长时间内。

Eastern Redcedar: A United States Native Tree That Ranges from Useful, to a Nuisance, and Even Invasive in Certain Environments 东方红杉:一种在某些环境中从有用到有害甚至入侵的美国本土树木

Invasive and nuisance plants, both introduced as well as native, have negatively impacted native flora and fauna and altered hydrological processes. Economic damage estimates range from $1.4 trillion globally to as high as $120 billion in the United States. Eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana) is native to at least 37 states in the United States. A medium-sized tree, eastern redcedar is commonly used as a landscape ornamental given its ability to grow in a wide range of conditions and its tolerance to many environmental pollutants. A tenacious conifer, eastern redcedar is valued for its landscape value and other uses, including wildlife habitat, lumber, medicines, and more. However, with wildfires suppressed and prescribed fires often discouraged, eastern redcedar has grown outside its original habitat and is an example of the term “range change.” This species’ predisposition to be opportunistic has allowed it to encroach on both abandoned and cultivated fields as well as grasslands. When the tree exhibits nuisance tendencies, control measures are warranted including prescribed fire, mechanical control, and herbicides. Ultimately, integrated control measures culminate in the best long-term results. The objective of this article was to describe eastern redcedar’s desirable ornamental features as well as landscape and utilitarian uses for humans and animals but also outline that it can be weedy to invasive depending on several factors discussed herein.
入侵和滋扰植物,无论是引进的还是本地的,都对本地动植物产生了负面影响,并改变了水文过程。据估计,全球经济损失从1.4万亿美元到美国高达1200亿美元。东部红杉(Juniperus virginia)原产于美国至少37个州。一种中等大小的树,东部红杉通常被用作景观观赏,因为它能够在广泛的条件下生长,并且对许多环境污染物具有耐受性。东部红杉是一种坚韧的针叶树,因其景观价值和其他用途而受到重视,包括野生动物栖息地,木材,药物等。然而,随着野火被扑灭,规定的火灾经常被阻止,东部红杉已经在其原始栖息地之外生长,这是“范围变化”一词的一个例子。这个物种的机会主义倾向使它能够侵占废弃的和开垦的田地以及草原。当树木表现出滋扰倾向时,必须采取控制措施,包括规定的火灾、机械控制和除草剂。综合控制措施最终会产生最佳的长期效果。本文的目的是描述东方红杉理想的观赏特征,以及对人类和动物的景观和实用用途,但也概述了它可能是杂草或入侵,这取决于本文讨论的几个因素。

Our objective was to quantify the efficacy of paclobutrazol substrate drenches on growth of nine black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta) cultivars. Liners of ‘Autumn Colors’, ‘Cherokee Sunset’, ‘Cherry Brandy’, ‘Denver Daisy’, ‘Glowing’, ‘Happy’, ‘Indian Summer’, ‘Prairie Sun’, and ‘Sunny’ black-eyed Susan were transplanted into 6.5-inch-diameter plastic containers (2 qt) filled with a commercial soilless peat-based substrate. After 16 days, six single-plant replicates received a substrate drench of 5-fl-oz aliquots of solutions containing deionized water [0 mg·L−1 paclobutrazol (control)] or 2.5, 5, 10, or 20 mg·L−1 paclobutrazol (0, 0.375, 0.75, 1.5, and 3.0 mg/pot). Paclobutrazol drenches of 2.5 to 20 mg·L−1 significantly influenced plant height, plant diameter, growth index (GI), and shoot dry weight (SDW) of all black-eyed Susan cultivars, although the magnitude of response to paclobutrazol substrate drench concentration varied with cultivar. For most cultivars, GI, an integrated measurement of height and diameter, was suppressed as paclobutrazol substrate drench concentrations increased from 2.5 to 20 mg·L−1, resulting in plants that were 30% to 43% smaller than untreated plants. Increasing paclobutrazol substrate drench concentrations from 2.5 to 20 mg·L−1 limited SDW of each cultivar differently, although plants were 5% to 59% smaller at 20 mg·L−1 paclobutrazol than untreated plants. Time to flower for ‘Autumn Colors’, ‘Cherry Brandy’, ‘Happy’, ‘Indian Summer’, and ‘Prairie Sunset’ was unaffected by any paclobutrazol substrate drench concentration; however, concentrations of ≤10 mg·L−1 paclobutrazol are suggested for ‘Cherokee Sunset’, ‘Denver Daisy’, ‘Glowing’, and ‘Sunny’, as higher concentrations delay flowering. Our results indicate that growers can attain growth control with substrate drenches containing 5 to 10 mg·L−1 paclobutrazol during greenhouse black-eyed Susan production without delaying flowering.
我们的目的是量化多效唑底物浸泡对9个黑眼苏珊(Rudbeckia hirta)品种生长的影响。将“秋色”、“切诺基日落”、“樱桃白兰地”、“丹佛雏菊”、“发光”、“快乐”、“印第安之夏”、“草原太阳”和“阳光”黑眼苏珊的内衬移植到直径6.5英寸的塑料容器中(2 qt),容器中装满了商业无土泥炭基基质。16天后,6个单株重复接受5-fl-oz等分的底物浸泡,其中含有去离子水[0 mg·L−1多效唑(对照)]或2.5、5、10或20 mg·L−1多效唑(0、0.375、0.75、1.5和3.0 mg/罐)。2.5 ~ 20 mg·L−1多效唑对黑眼Susan品种株高、株径、生长指数(GI)和地上部干重(SDW)均有显著影响,但对多效唑底物浓度的影响程度因品种而异。当多效唑底物浓度从2.5 mg·L−1增加到20 mg·L−1时,大多数品种的GI(高度和直径的综合测量值)受到抑制,导致植株比未处理植株小30% ~ 43%。将多效唑底物浓度从2.5 mg·L−1增加到20 mg·L−1,对每个品种的SDW有不同的限制,尽管20 mg·L−1多效唑处理的植株比未处理的植株小5% ~ 59%。“Autumn Colors”、“Cherry Brandy”、“Happy”、“Indian Summer”和“Prairie Sunset”的开花时间不受多效唑底物浸水浓度的影响;然而,对于“Cherokee Sunset”、“Denver Daisy”、“Glowing”和“Sunny”,建议使用浓度≤10 mg·L−1的多效唑,因为浓度较高会延迟开花。本研究结果表明,在温室黑眼苏珊生产期间,种植者可以在不延迟开花的情况下,在基质中施用5 ~ 10 mg·L−1多效唑来控制生长。
