Unraveling the Genetics of Seed Dormancy in Barley Using Genome-Wide Association and Biparental Mapping
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Seed dormancy is the delay or inability of viable seeds to germinate under favorable conditions. The differential expression of dormancy levels in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seeds impacts malt quality. While dormant ...
Genetic Diversity of the Guatemalan Climbing Bean Collections
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Since common bean is the most important legume crop for human consumption around the world, bean breeders are challenged to increase production of beans while facing new problems like climate change. Guatemalan climbing ...
Simulated Hail Damage on Spring Canola (Brassica napus L.): Non-Uniform Stand Reduction and Stem Cut-Off
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Hail damage in canola has been characterized with symptoms such as randomly broken stems and loss of plants. The effect on stand reduction and stem cut-off in canola has yet to be addressed. Two separate experiments, stand ...
Relay-Sowing Soybean Into Established Winter Annual Cover Crops
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Cover crop acreage continues to increase as soil, grazing, and ecosystem benefits become better known. The profit aspect of sustainability could be improved by producing intersown cover crops with an added commodity value. ...
Nitrogen Management in Dry Bean and Soybean
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Legume crops, dry bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.), can form symbiotic relationships with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Nitrogen (N) fertilizer may be necessary for optimal yields. Three ...
Tile Drainage, Beds, and Fe-EDDHA Application Effect on Soybean Production
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Eastern North Dakota has received excessive rainfall events since 1995, and soils are prone to waterlogging. This research evaluated the effects of subsurface tile drainage, raised beds, and iron-chelate (Fe-EDDHA) ...
Combining Cover Crops, Strip Tillage, and Novel Mulches to Manage Weeds in Vegetable Cropping Systems
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Vegetable producers may benefit from integrating living mulches into their operations to manage weeds and improve soil quality. Living mulches, however, can reduce vegetable yield through competition. Here we investigate ...
Horseweed (Erigeron canadensis) Control in No-Till Soybean Systems on a Coarse Textured Soil
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Horseweed (Erigeron canadensis) is a competitive winter or summer annual broadleaf weed. When uncontrolled, horseweed can reduce soybean (Glycine max) yields by 93%. Research was conducted to advance our knowledge on ...
Marker Assisted Selection Increases the Efficiency of Breeding for Potato Virus Y Resistance in Potato
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Potato Virus Y (PVY) is an important virus of potato due to the non-persistent mode of transmission by aphids causing yield losses. Genetic resistance is the recommended control since insecticides cannot adequately control ...
Delineating Root System Architecture in Rapeseed/Canola (Brassica napus L.) through Molecular and Transcriptomic Approaches
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Root system architecture of plant plays a key role in water and nutrient uptake from the soil, provides anchorage and acts as a storage organ. In this current research, we have focused on the molecular and physiological ...
