Nitrogen Fertilizer Timing, Rate, and Source Effects on Corn and Wheat Production in the Red River Valley
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Experiments were conducted in 2015-2016 to determine if yield and protein concentration in corn (Zea mays L.) and hard red spring wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L.) could be enhanced through different nitrogen (N) fertilizer ...
Validation of Molecular Markers Associated with Grain Cadmium in Durum Wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum Desf.)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Durum wheat is capable of accumulating cadmium, a toxic heavy metal, in the grain at levels that have been deemed unsafe. Previous studies have identified genetic variation in durum wheat that can be exploited to create ...
Factors Affecting Establishment and Growth of Cover Crops in a Corn-Soybean Rotation
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
In the Midwest, it can be beneficial to interseed cover crops into corn (Zea mays L.) since there is a limited time for them to establish and grow after corn harvest. Research conducted in four environments in North Dakota ...
Glutograph 'E': A Simple Rheometer to Measure Quality of Cooked Pasta
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Glutograph ‘E’ was designed to determine the stretch and relaxation properties of wet gluten. Usage of this equipment to evaluate the cooked pasta texture has not been reported and thus is the goal of this research. ...
Genetics of Wheat Domestication and Septoria Nodorum Blotch Susceptibility in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
T. aestivum ssp. spelta Iranian type has long been thought to potentially be the direct non-free threshing hexaploid progenitor. I evaluated a RIL population derived from a cross between CS and Iranian spelta accession ...
Parasitic Fitness of SDHI-Sensitive and -Resistant Isolates of Alternaria Solani
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Early blight of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is caused by Alternaria solani Sorauer. The single-site mode of action chemistries of the succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) and quinone outside inhibitors (QoIs) have ...
Simulated Glyphosate Drift Effects on 'Red Norland' Commercial and Seed Potato Industries
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Field, greenhouse, and laboratory experiments were conducted in 2014 and 2015 to evaluate effects of glyphosate drift on ‘Red Norland’ potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) grown for commercial and seed industries. Glyphosate drift ...
The Acquisition of Useful Disease Resistance Genes for Hard Red Winter Wheat Improvement
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
This study was part of a larger pre-breeding effort to develop new parental materials carrying useful genes for disease resistance and adaptation. Firstly, marker-assisted backcrosses were employed to transfer and pyramid ...
Aminocyclopyrachlor Efficacy on Native Forbs, and Soil Seedbank Change 15 Years Following Release of Leafy Spurge (Euphorbia esula L.) Biological Control Agents
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Native prairie response to aminocyclopyrachlor (AMCP) was evaluated in the Northern Great Plains. AMCP altered plant communities and reduced foliar cover of introduced, high seral, and low seral forb species. After treatment, ...
Vacuum Steam Pasteurization of Hard Red Spring Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Vacuum steam pasteurization (VSP) is a promising technology for pasteurization of low moisture foods. Recent outbreaks traced to wheat flour, a low moisture food, have created demand in the milling industry for a process ...
