Turf Quality of Creeping Bentgrass Using Foliar Fertilization Tank-Mixed with Sprayable Organic Amendments
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The use of foliar fertilizer applications on creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera L.) is a popular method of achieving quality turfgrass. Tank-mixing foliar products may increase turfgrass quality, reduce amount of ...
Identification and Introgression of Novel Genes for Stem Rust Ug99 Resistance from Relative Species of Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Wheat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis Pers.: Pers f. sp. tritici Eriks. & E. Henn. (Pgt), is a destructive disease that can cause severe yield losses in wheat. A new Pgt race Ug99 (TTKSK), which was first identified ...
QTL Analysis for Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Tunisian-Derived Durum Wheat Populations
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Durum (2n=4x=28; AABB) wheat is the grain of choice for the production of high-quality pasta products. Fusarium spp. are causal pathogens for Fusarium Head Blight (FHB). Limited host resistance to this disease exists among ...
Genetics and Quantitative Trait Loci Mapping of Septoria Tritici Blotch Resistance, Agronomic, and Quality Traits in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Most breeding programs aim at developing superior germplasm and better cultivars that combine high yield, disease and pest resistance, and end-use quality to satisfy the requirements of the growers as well as industry. A ...
Increasing the Genetic Diversity of U.S. Northern Corn Belt Hybrids with Tropical and Temperate Exotic Germplasm
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
The NDSU EarlyGEM or the Early Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (Zea maize L.) is a
long term incorporation program designed to increase the genetic diversity of short season
hybrids. Starting in 1999, exotic GEM breeding ...
Hardwood Floricane Blackberry Cuttings & Production of Primocane Blackberry in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus, Watson) is not a commercially produced crop in North Dakota since the available floricane cultivars are not winter hardy. Two experiments were performed to evaluate alternative methods ...
Identifying Dry Bean Genotypes and Genomic Regions Associated with Root Rot Resistance with Emphasis on Fusarium Solani F. Sp Phaseoli
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most produced legume in the U.S. and worldwide. Fusarium root rot (FRR) is a widespread soil-borne diseases causing up to 86% yield reduction in beans. Large-seeded cultivars are ...
Oil-Based Food Extracts from Distillers Dried Grains
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
The goal of this project was to examine benefits of developing a DDGS-based extract for human food consumption. The antioxidant activity of extracts derived from corn and distillers’ dried grains with solubles (DDGS) was ...
Soybean Seeding Rate and Row Spacing Effects on Plant Establishment and Yield
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
North Dakota soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] management varies across the state, resulting in yield differences. Eight soybean seeding rates (starting at 197600 and increasing by 49400 live seed ha-1 increments) and row ...
Factors Impacting Corn Establishment and the Role of Uniform Stand Establishment on Yield
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Information from actual farm fields can help corn producers understand the value and
importance of establishing uniform plant emergence and within row plant spacing. Thirty-eight
fields planted with corn (Zea mays L.) by ...
