Comparative Population Genetics of Fusarium Graminearum and Novel Sources of Resistance to Fusarium Head Blight in Spring Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Fusarium graminearum is the major causal agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereal crops. The fungus produces several types of trichothecenes [Deoxynivalenol (DON) and its acetylated derivatives, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol ...
Biology and Development of Two Wilt Fungi of Potato: Verticilliam Dahliae and Colletotrichum Coccodes
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
The demand for high quality tubers for the frozen processing industry has exerted increased pressure on producers to control diseases that can compromise tuber quality, including, C. coccodes and V. dahliae. Infection of ...
Characterization of Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating fungal disease threatening wheat production worldwide. Utilization of resistant wheat cultivars is generally considered as the most effective, economic and environmental friendly ...
Studies on the Management of Potato Mop-Top Virus-Induced Tuber Necrosis
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Tuber necrosis caused by the Potato Mop-top Virus (PMTV) has become one of the most important tuber necrosis diseases in the United States. PMTV is transmitted by the powdery scab pathogen (Spongospora subterranea f.sp ...
Spatial and Temporal Sensitivity of Alternaria Species Associated with Potato Foliar Diseases to Demethylation Inhibiting and Anilino-Pyrimidine Fungicides
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Early blight and brown spot, caused by Alternaria solani and Alternaria alternata,
respectively, are important foliar diseases of potato, affecting both tuber yield and quality. Most
of the commercial cultivars lack ...
Evaluation of Winter Wheat Germplasm for Resistance to Stripe Rust and Leaf Rust
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Wheat leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt), and wheat stripe rust caused by P. striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) are important foliar diseases of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) worldwide. Breeding for disease resistance ...
Genetics of the Host-Pathogen Interaction in the Barley-Net Form Net Blotch System
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Pyrenophora teres f. teres is a fungal pathogen that causes barley net form net blotch. To evaluate the genetics of resistance in barley, a RIL population was developed using resistant barley lines CI5791 and Tifang and ...
Characterization of Effector Encoding Genes from the Novel Sugar Beet Pathogen Fusarium Secorum
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
A new disease of sugar beet, named Fusarium yellowing decline, was recently found in in the Red River Valley of MN and ND. This disease is caused by a novel pathogen named Fusarium secorum. Pathogens such as F. secorum ...
The Effect of Variable Seed-Borne Inoculum Load of Dickeya dianthicola on Performance and Infection of Field Grown Potatoes
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Field experiments were conducted at Live Oak, Florida, and Rhodesdale, Maryland, to evaluate the effect of variable seed-borne inoculum load of Dickeya dianthicola on potato plant emergence, plant growth throughout the ...
Prevalence of Pathogenicity Groups of the Blackleg Species Complex on Canola in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
North Dakota is the leading producer of canola (Brassica napus) in the United States. Blackleg, caused by two species of Leptosphaeria, L. maculans (Desm.) Ces & De Not and L. biglobosa, is an economically important disease ...
