OverviewAI-generated summary
Leala M. Machesney's research focuses on plant physiology and cultivation, particularly investigating the impact of environmental factors on plant development and quality. Her work includes studies on substrate components, such as peat blended with pine wood, to evaluate their effects on physical properties, nitrogen immobilization, and plant growth. Machesney has also examined the influence of forcing temperature on the development rates and quality of container-grown plants, including blackberries and peppers.
Her recent publications detail the development of a simple temperature-based model for scheduling long-cane blackberry crops. Further research explores the effects of blackberry long-cane cold storage and forcing strategies on flower and fruit development. Machesney collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Ryan W. Dickson, Margaret Worthington, and Jung Ae Lee, as well as Amanda McWhirt from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock.
