Radiation Hybrid Fine Mapping of Two Fertility-Related Genes: Marking the Path to Wheat Hybrids
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Over one billion people, more than 1/9th of the global population, are undernourished. Feeding the ever increasing population has to be the most important goal of plant sciences. Since cultivated areas are not likely to ...
Agronomic Practices that Impact Grain Quality Factors of Durum Wheat (Triticum Turgidum L. Var. Durum Desf.)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Durum wheat is a type of wheat primarily used for pasta production. North Dakota is the leading producer of durum wheat in the US with average yields of 2700 kg ha-1. Durum wheat price discounts are common and occur due ...
Roles of the TSN1 and TSC2 Genes in Conferring Susceptibility of Durum Wheat to Tan Spot and Septoria Nodorum Blotch
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Tan spot is an important disease caused by the necrotrophic fungus Pyrenophora triticirepentis.
Two common necrotrophic effectors produced by this fungus are Ptr ToxA and Ptr
ToxB, which recognize host sensitivity genes ...
Ethofumesate 4SC Applied Postemergence in Sugarbeet
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Experiments evaluated sugarbeet tolerance, herbicide efficacy on common lambsquarters (Chenopodium album L.), redroot pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus L.) and waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus (moq.) J.D. Sauer), and ...
Pre-Harvest Glyphosate Timing in Oats and Final Oat Quality
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Pre-harvest glyphosate is often applied to cereal crops, such as oats, to insure uniform grain ripeness at harvest. However, some buyers have claimed that this practice negatively affects oat end product quality. Oat samples ...
Seeding Date, Maturity Rating, and Location Influence on Soybean (Glycine max L. (Merr.)) Performance and Phenology in Eastern North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
In North Dakota, soybean is typically planted in mid to late May; however, a late spring frost or flooding event may cause a grower to plant late, or replant their crop. The objective of this research was to determine the ...
Nitrogen Fertilizer Types and Application Timing on Hard Red Spring Wheat Productivity and Grain Protein
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The balance of improving hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. emend Thell) yield while maintaining grain protein concentration continues to be a challenge in agriculture. The objective of the field research was to ...
Using Organic Amendments to Stabilize Sand-based Athletic Fields During Turfgrass Establishment Period
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Athletic field rootzones are often sand-based for improved drainage. Sand-based rootzones may have stability issues if turfgrass is not fully established. Our objective was to use organic amendments to improve the stability ...
Advanced Cropping Systems for Oil and Biomass Feedstock Production in the Northern Great Plains
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Video summarizing a Ph.D. dissertation for a non-specialist audience.
Molecular and Histological Study of Sphaerulina musiva-Populus spp. Interaction
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Sphaerulina musiva, the causal agent of leaf spot and stem canker, is responsible for critical yield loss of hybrid poplar in agroforestry. This research examined quantification of S. musiva in host tissue, and infection ...
