Towards the Development of a Gene-Based Eco-Physiology Model for Common Bean: Genotype by Environment Interactions
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Genotype by environment interactions (GxE) complicate selection in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Crop models can play a valuable role by helping plant breeding programs to better understand GxE. The objectives of ...
Predicting and Enhancing Spring Wheat Grain Protein Content through Sensing and In-Season Nitrogen Fertilization
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Grain protein content is an essential component to producing a profitable Hard Red Spring Wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L.) crop in the northern Great Plains. Growers can increase grain protein content through in-season ...
Ascochyta Rabiei in North Dakota: Characterization of the Secreted Proteome and Population Genetics
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Chickpea is one of the most important leguminous crops grown in regions of southern Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the United States. Ascochyta blight, caused by Ascochyta rabiei, is the most important foliar disease ...
Symmetric Protoplast Fusion in Interserial Syringa (Oleaceae) Hybridization
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Few other woody plants embody the preeminence of temperate woody plants in garden cultivation like the lilacs. In spite of their relationship, the trees lack the diversity of cultivated floral forms observed within the ...
Carbohydrate-Based Micro and Nano Scale Materials from Soybean Meal, Distillers Dried Grains, and Sugar Beet Pulp for Food and other Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Study 1 was carried out to isolate and produce enzyme resistant micro and nano scale carbohydrates from soybean meal (SBM), distillers dried grains (DDG), and sugar beet pulp (SBP). All materials produced were in micro and ...
Impact of Planting Date, Cultivar, Phosphorus, Potassium, and Fungicide Seed Treatments on Winter Wheat Survival and Yield
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Field experiments and greenhouse studies were conducted to evaluate the effects of phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and fungicides on winter survival, and yield of winter-wheat in North Dakota. The study was conducted as a ...
Hop Establishment Impacted by Mulch Type and Nitrogen Source
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Agronomic research is lacking for hops (Humulus lupulus), especially in North Dakota (ND) and the northern Great Plains, where demand has risen. This research was done to evaluate factors influencing hops establishment in ...
Postemergence Efficacy of Pyroxasulfone at Different Rates and Timings in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Pyroxasulfone is a VLCFA inhibitor labeled to control grasses and small-seeded broadleaf weeds. Little information is available regarding this herbicide being applied postemergence. Two field experiments were conducted ...
Understanding and Improving Depth Perception from Motion Parallax in Older Adults
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Successful navigation in the world requires effective visuospatial processing. Unfortunately, older adults have many visuospatial deficits, which can have severe real-world consequences. It is therefore crucial to understand ...
Wheat Traits Variations, Associations, and Potential Improvement from Crosses of Elite X Non-Adapted Germplasm
(North Dakota State University, 2011)
Wheat improvement most often has been accompanied by a narrowing germplasm base, as newer cultivars have been derived from intercrosses between elite germplasm. However, there is a concern that narrow germplasm may restrict ...
