Genome-Wide Association Mapping of Host Resistance to Stem Rust, Leaf Rust, Tan Spot, and Septoria Nodorum Blotch in Cultivated Emmer Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Cultivated emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccum) is a good source of genes for resistance to several major diseases of wheat. The objectives of this study were to use genome-wide association analysis to detect ...
Unraveling the Genetic Architecture of Agronomic Traits and Developing a Genome Wide InDel Panel in Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is an economically important legume. The agronomic characteristics of this crop such as days to flower, growth habit and seed yield affect breeding strategies. However, little is known about ...
Detection and Molecular Typing of Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus Aureus (MSSA) and Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA)
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and multidrug-resistant (MDR) Staphylococcus aureus, and the serotype (ST) 398 have been associated with human and livestock infections, being also detected in retail meat. The aim of this study ...
Genetic Characterization of Dormancy in Durum Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Two populations derived by crossing LDN x LDN Dic-3A (Population I) and LDN x LDN Dic-3B (Population II) were genetically characterized for the seed dormancy present on chromosome 3A and 3B of durum wheat. The genes for ...
Variation in Core and Accessory Parts of Genome of Escherichia Coli Isolated from Soil from Riparian Areas in New York State
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Escherichia coli is commensal bacteria and is a symbiont of the digestive system of vertebrates. Due to frequent deposition of E. coli into extrahost habitats (soil, water), approximately half of its population exists as ...
The Use of Communication Strategies to Influence Stakeholders to Implement Food Safety Management Systems in Small Custom-Exempt Meal Plants
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
This exploratory study used interviews to understand the culture and
communication patterns of the stakeholders, employers, and employees. Interviews
revealed that the topic of Food Safety was a very sensitive one as many ...
Occurrence of Salmonella and Listeria Monocytogenes in Ready to Eat Meats in the United States: 2000-2010
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
The purpose of this review is to characterize the occurrence of Salmonella and Listeria monocytogenes in ready to eat (RTE) meats in the United States between the years 2000-2010. Data were obtained from the CDC foodborne ...
Escherichia Coli in Bovine Calf Scours
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Scours is caused by inflammation of the intestinal tract of ruminants leading to significant mortality and morbidity rates. It is predominately found in neonatal ruminants where the disease can occur 36 hours after birth. ...
Genomic Analysis of Domestication-Related Traits and Stem Rust Resistance in Tetraploid Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Modern durum and common wheat cultivars were developed from ancient wheat ancestors by natural and artificial selection of agronomic and domestication traits, which ultimatey decreased their genetic diversity and made them ...
Acute Exercise Response of Caffeine and Nitric Oxide Stimulating Pre-Workout Supplement among Healthy Male Recreational Athletes
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The effect of cocktail or “pre-workout” supplements containing L-arginine nitrate and caffeine are equivocal with anaerobic performance. The purpose of this study was to compare anaerobic performance and blood flow of ...
