Cornus Mas L. Cultivar Selection Based on Hardiness and Propagation
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Cornus mas (Cornelian cherry) is a deciduous shrub/small tree native to southeastern Europe and western Asia. It is unique among the Cornaceae (dogwood) family in that the fruit is used for human consumption and is highly ...
Management Practices for Improved Winter Survival of Winter Wheat in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Hard red winter wheat (winter wheat, Triticum aestivum L.) production has been
historically low in ND due to cold winter temperatures resulting in winter injury and stand
loss. The objective of this research was to determine ...
Predicting Potato Yield Loss Due to Metribuzin Sensitivity in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
A linear-log model to predict yield loss due to metribuzin injury was established by Love et. al. in 1993. Two experiments were conducted in 2016 and 2017 to evaluate and improve this model for application in North Dakota ...
Using Mid-Season NDVI Data from Drones to Produce Variable Rate Fertilizer Maps in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Variable rate prescription maps can improve nitrogen use efficiency within a field by directing N applications where it is needed. If NDVI collected with a drone could be used to predict yield, it also could be used to ...
Identification of Molecular Markers Linked to X-Disease Resistance in Chokecherry
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
X-disease, caused by phytoplasmas, is one of the destructive diseases in stone fruit trees, causing yield loss and poor fruit quality. So far no effective methods are available to control X-disease. X-disease resistance ...
Genetics of End-Use Quality Characteristics in Spring Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops consumed by humans around the world. Improving the end-use quality traits is one of the major objectives in wheat breeding programs. However, little is known ...
Total Yellow Pigment Content and Oxidative Stress Level during Kernel Development
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The focus of this research was to determine the effects of cultivar and environment on levels of total yellow pigment content and oxidative stress during grain development and in semolina and pasta. Lipoxygenase activity ...
Turfgrass Responses and Rootzone Media Characteristics as Affected by Salinity
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Utilization of salt-tolerant species or cultivars is one the most effective methods to address salinity problems in turfgrass management. The relative salt tolerance in 26 commercial creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) ...
Differentiating PVY Infection from Nitrogen Deficiency in Potato Using Spectral Reflectance
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Potato Virus Y (PVY) infection and nitrogen (N) deficiency cause similar symptoms (chlorosis and stunting) on potato foliage. While conventional methods, including ELISA and petiole testing, require destructive sampling ...
Enhancing Protein Concentration in Hard Red Spring Wheat with Nitrogen Management Based on Plant Predictors
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
In recent years (2009-2011) many producers have had issues meeting the market requirements of 140 g kg-1 of protein concentration in hard red spring wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L. emend. Thell) especially with newer ...
