Virus-free cherry: Budwood of sweet cherry varieties developed free from known viruses
by George Nyland, Reid M. Brooks
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Virus-free budwood of sweet cherry varieties—Bing, Black Tartarian, Napoleon or Royal Ann, Black Republican, Deacon, and Lambert—have been propagated in experimental plantings at Davis. Sufficient fruit has been produced on the trees to determine trueness to variety. However, insufficient time has elapsed to obtain data on mature tree performance in California of the clones obtained from other states.

by Deane P. Furman, Stanley W. Coates, George H. Rohrbacher
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
The northern fowl mite—Bdellonyssus sylviarum—sometimes mistakenly known as the feather mite, can be controlled readily according to the findings of laboratory and field tests extending over a period of almost two years.
