Estimates of heritabilities and genetic variances of three yield and five quality traits in three fresh-market cucumber populations

Journal of the American Society for Horticultural Science, 111(4), 599–605.

1986 journal article

Efficiency of 3 single-harvest tests for evaluation of yield in pickling cucumber

Euphytica, 35(2), 493–501.

By: T. Wehner n 

topics (OpenAlex): Advances in Cucurbitaceae Research; Cocoa and Sweet Potato Agronomy; Growth and nutrition in plants
TL;DR: The most efficient method was 1, 2 or 3 replications of small-plots harvested once-over at green fruit stage, with 160% more gain from selection expected than for the replicated, multiple-harvest trial. (via Semantic Scholar)

1986 journal article

Optimum plot size determination and its application to cucumber yield trials

Euphytica, 35(2), 421–432.

By: W. Swallow n & T. Wehner n 

topics (OpenAlex): Leaf Properties and Growth Measurement; Irrigation Practices and Water Management; Crop Yield and Soil Fertility
TL;DR: Methods of estimating Smith's b and, thereby, optimum plot size are compared from a theoretical viewpoint and the estimates were sufficiently stable to suggest that they have useful generality. (via Semantic Scholar)

1986 journal article

Effect of inbreeding on horticultural performance of lines developed from an open-pollinated pickling cucumber population

Euphytica, 35(2), 459–464.

By: D. Rubino n & T. Wehner n 

topics (OpenAlex): Cocoa and Sweet Potato Agronomy; Advances in Cucurbitaceae Research; Plant Physiology and Cultivation Studies
TL;DR: The regression did not result in significant negative slopes, indicating that inbreeding depression was not important in the population for the traits studied, and midparent heterosis was found for most traits in many hybrids obtained from crossing S6 lines with the gynoecious inbred line.

1986 journal article

Efficiency of early generation testing in pickling cucumber

Euphytica, 35(1), 89–96.

By: D. Rubino n & T. Wehner n 

topics (OpenAlex): Advances in Cucurbitaceae Research; Cocoa and Sweet Potato Agronomy; Agricultural Practices and Plant Genetics
TL;DR: Early testing for specific combining ability and for general combining ability was up to 2.05 times as efficient as late testing for total yield, and up to two-and-a-half times asefficient asLate testing for earliness, but was not efficient for selection for the fruit quality traits measured.

1986 journal article

Economic Injury Level, Action Threshold, and a Yield-loss Model for the Pea Aphid, Acyrthosiphon pisum (Homoptera: Aphididae), on Green Peas, Pisum sativum

Journal of Economic Entomology, 79(6), 1681–1687.

By: G. Yencho, L. Getzin & G. Lono

topics (OpenAlex): Agricultural pest management studies; Agronomic Practices and Intercropping Systems; Insect-Plant Interactions and Control
TL;DR: A generalized, nonlinear equation relating pea yield to accumulated aphid feeding days (AFD) is described, which approximates two phases of a sigmoid infestation-yield curve and a lower minimum yield plateau is hypothesized. (via Semantic Scholar)
