Evaluation and Propagation of Carex Species for Use in Rain Gardens
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
A study was conducted to evaluate cyclical flood and drought on the growth of seven sedge species. A second study was conducted to determine if perigynia removal would accelerate germination for four sedge species. Results ...
Susceptible Crop Response to Soil Residues and Foliar Exposure of Dicamba
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Dry bean, soybean, sugarbeet, and sunflower were tested for tolerance to dicamba residue in soil. Visible injury was seen on dry bean and soybean depending on location, but yield differences were not present. Increasing ...
Distillers Byproduct Compared to Other Nitrogen Sources as a Fertilizer for Corn
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Corn (Zea mays L.) based ethanol and associated byproducts like wet (WDG) production has increased over the past decade. Research was conducted in five environments in North Dakota to determine the nitrogen (N) fertilization ...
Usefulness of Expired Proprietary (Ex-PVP) Maize (Zea Mays L.) Germplasm for U.S. Northern Breeding Programs
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines and hybrids are protected by U.S. Patent and/or Plant Variety Protection Act (PVPA). Protection lasts 20 years and it affects breeding access in a highly confidential and competitive market. ...
Causes of Dull Brown Color in Durum and Traditional Semolina Pasta
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Bleaching of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum [Desf.] Husn.) was evaluated by determining the effect of grain moisture content, temperature, and wet/dry cycles with bulk water and with high relative humidity ...
Optimal Seeding Rates for New Hard Red Spring Wheat Cultivars in Diverse Environments
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Seeding rate in hard red spring wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L.) production impacts input cost and grain yield. Predicting the optimal seeding rate (OSR) for HRSW cultivars can aid growers and eliminate the need for ...
Gene Expression Associated with Wound and Native Periderm Maturation in Potato Tubers
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is the world's fourth largest food crop and large financial losses are incurred each year from wound and bruise related injuries. However, little is known about the coordinate induction of ...
Allelic Relationship of A. strigosa Crown Rust Resistance Factors and their Relationship to Pc38 Suppression
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
An investigation of the suppression effect of Pc38 on Pc94 was conducted by developing F2 segregating populations from genotypes possessing Pc38 and Pc94, together with a population void of the Pc38. Segregating phenotypic ...
Genetic Investigation of Wild Oat with Acetyl-Coa Carboxylase Gene Sequence Variation
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Wild oat (Avena fatua) is a grass weed species that infests cropland. Common post-emergent herbicides for controlling wild oat are those that inhibit acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) and acetolactate synthase (ALS). Variation ...
Droplet Size Effect on Herbicide Used in Cereals to Control Dicotyledonous Weeds
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of droplet size on the efficacy of translocated and non-translocated herbicides. Translocated and non-translocated herbicides provided similar control when comparing droplet ...
