Association Studies on Pre-Germination Flooding Tolerance and Cell Wall Components Related to Plant Architecture in Dry Bean
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Dry bean breeding programs have made significant advances in combating both abiotic and biotic stresses as well as improving plant architectural traits via selective breeding. Flooding can cause complete crop loss in dry ...
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 ...
Weed Management and Soil Quality Outcomes of Non-Chemical Weed Control Tactics
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
In the Northern Great Plains (NGP), weed management within organic systems remains a challenge. Experiments were conducted at two distinct sites in North Dakota to investigate effects of deep mulch no-till (NT) on soil ...
Genotype-by-Environment Interaction in Sunflowers for the Northern Plains
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Genotype by environment interaction (GxE) is the tendency of the phenotypic performance of two or more plant genotypes in one environment to not be predictive of their relative performance in another environment. To discover ...
Development of a Molecular Marker to Track APA G40199 Introgression in Common Bean for Bruchid Resistance
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
In common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), the main seed storage pests are the bruchid beetles. Damage done to the seed by the larvae has a large impact on seed quality and yield. Arcelin (ARC), phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), and ...
Characterization of Surfactant Quality and Validation of Standard Water Conditioning Testing
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Adjuvants are products added to pesticide applications to increase pest control. There are many different types of adjuvants designed to solve certain problems. Surfactants are a major class of agricultural adjuvant used ...
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 ...
Cultivation to Supplement Residual Herbicides in Sugarbeet
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
The migration of waterhemp (Amaranthus tuberculatus) into northern sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris) growing regions has prompted sugarbeet producers to utilize inter-row cultivation in their weed management program as no currently ...
Fate of Deoxynivalenol during Wet Milling
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
The fungal disease Fusarium head blight affects cereal grains and can produce mycotoxins, like the water-soluble deoxynivalenol (DON). Wheat wet milling process begins with ground endosperm obtained by dry milling and ends ...
Somatic Embryogenesis of Magnolia spp. and Cultivars
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
This study focused on induction of somatic embryogenesis of Magnolia spp. and cultivars utilizing leaf and seed (immature and mature) tissues with attempted micropropagation experiments. In a preliminary experiment, direct ...
