OverviewAI-generated summary

Amanda McWhirt investigates horticultural crop production and management, with a focus on small fruits and vegetables. Her research examines the phenological cycles of strawberries, from flower to fruit, and evaluates the impact of harvest date and year on the volatile and physicochemical properties of blackberries. McWhirt also studies the tolerance of young blackberries to various preemergence herbicides and their application rates. Additionally, her work explores the effects of soil-applied thyme oil on strawberry yield and disease abundance, as well as the status of crop fertility management and plant tissue nutrient concentration in southeastern United States blackberries. She has also investigated the impact of temperature on the development rate and quality of container-grown cucumber and hot pepper plants and explored strategies for combating horticultural misinformation through online campaigns.
