Three new hybrid tomatoes: Crosses between male-sterile and fertile varieties prove superior for quality and early yield of market tomatoes
by Charles M. Rick, C. Grant Baughn, Bernarr J. Hall

Flare-up of oriental fruit moth: Costly outbreak of pest of peach orchards in 1954 resulted in co-operative research in 1955 to develop control program

An outbreak of Oriental fruit moth— not Oriental fruit fly—caused appreciable crop damage in a small number of peach orchards near Kingsburg during the harvest of 1954. This was the first damaging flare-up of Oriental fruit moth —OFM—in the main peach belt of California.

Powdery mildew on peach trees: Comparative effectiveness of sulfur and other chemicals for control of peach powdery mildew in tests near Linden

Citrus replant seedling tests: Trifoliate orange rootstock shows better growth in old citrus soil than other seedlings included in replant problem study
by J. P. Martin, W. P. Bitters, J. O. Ervin
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
The citrus replant problem varies greatly in severity in different soils and areas. Part of that variation appears to be related to the rootstock originally grown on the soil and the nature of the rootstock used for replanting.

Sulfur dioxide injury on citrus: Riverside tests show orange trees to be resistant to plantdamaging air pollutant at known atmospheric concentrations
by Ellis F. Darley, John T. Middleton, J. B. Kendrick
| Full text HTML  | PDF  
Concentrations of sulfur dioxide—an important plant-damaging constituent of the atmosphere—vary from 0.01 part per million—ppm—to 0.24 ppm, and average about 0.06 ppm in the south coastal plain of California.
