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 ...
Quinclorac and Aminocyclopyrachlor Movement in Sandy Soils of the Sheyenne National Grassland, and Control of Yellow Toadflax with Aminocyclopyrachlor
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Quinclorac and aminocyclopyrachlor leaching potential was evaluated in replicated field conditions in soil from five ecological sites of the Sheyenne National Grassland (SNG). Herbicide concentration was estimated using ...
Cloning and Characterization of Meiotic Genes Rec8 and Cdc5 and Subcellular Analysis of Kinetochore Orientation in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Meiosis is a specialized cell division that halves chromosomes and generates haploid gametes in eukaryotes. It is a dynamic cellular process governed by a complex genetic network. Two key players of this network, Rec8 and ...
Cloning and Characterization of the Iron-Regulated Transporter (IRT) Genes and Their Transcription Factors in Populus
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Iron deficiency causes chlorosis in many plant species, resulting in yield loss and poor quality. Many tree species including poplar are susceptible to iron deficiency. Trees suffering from iron deficiency often show ...
Marker Assisted Backcross Selection for Virus Resistance in Pea (Pisum Sativum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Viruses are destructive plant pathogens, which cause significant yield loss and reduced grain quality. Pea Seed-borne Mosaic Virus (PSbMV) is an economically important viral disease in pea (Pisum sativum L.) and recently ...
Nitrogen Uptake and Biomass and Ethanol Yield of Biomass Crops as Feedstock for Biofuel
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Nitrogen fertilizers are extensively used to enhance the growth of biomass crops. This study was conducted to determine the effect of N rates on the biomass yield and quality, and N uptake of several crops. The experiment ...
