Developing Methodology to Predict and Increase Grain Protein Content in Spring Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
A challenge for hard red spring wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L. emend Thell.) producers is to obtain both high yields and market-required grain protein content (GPC). The ability to accurately predict HRSW yield with ...
Dark, Hard and Vitreous (DHV) HRS Wheat Kernel Content Effect on Flour and Baking Quality
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Kernel vitreousness is an important grading characteristics of Hard Red Spring (HRS) wheat in the U.S., as subclasses vary in the dark, hard and vitreous kernel (DHV) content. This research investigated different subclasses ...
Early-Season Weed Control in Direct-Seeded Onion (Allium Cepa L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Onion is a poor competitor with early-season broadleaf weeds. In addition, there are no current herbicide labels that allow POST application prior to the onion two-leaf stage in ND and PRE herbicide options provide ...
Agronomic Studies of Forage Brassicas as Full-Season and Cover Crops for Grazing in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Annual forages represent a good feed resource to extend the grazing season into fall and winter, providing a good quality forage for the livestock, allowing more efficient use of rangeland, and at the same time improving ...
Identification and Genomic Analysis of Stagonospora Nodorum Blotch Susceptibility Genes in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Parastagonospora nodorum is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen that causes the disease Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB) on wheat. The fungus produces necrotrophic effectors (NEs), that when recognized by corresponding host ...
Identification of Molecular Markers for Marker-Assisted Selection of Malting Quality and Associated Traits in Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in North Dakota, which ranks second amongst all states for barley production in the United States. Barley is used for the production of malt, which is ...
Screening of the USDA Core Collection of Common Bean for Reaction to Halo Blight and Identification of Genomic Regions Associated with Resistance
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
With only three sources of resistance currently known to race 6 of Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Burkholder) (Psp) which causes halo blight, an important bacterial disease of common bean, there is an urgent need ...
An Initiative to Clean Label: Can We Replace Dough Strengtheners in Bread Formulations
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Dough strengtheners are the most common and largest group of chemicals used in bread formulations. This study evaluated the capability of hard red spring (HRS) wheat flour to replace commercial dough strengtheners in bread ...
Strategies for Weed Management in Organic Production Systems in the Northern Great Plains
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Two field studies were conducted in North Dakota to explore methods to facilitate weed management in organic production systems. No-till farming is gaining popularity in conventional systems; however, organic producers ...
Adaptation of Quality Protein Maize (Zea Mays L.) to Northern U.S. Corn Belt
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
There is a need to increase the value of crops and develop the next generation of healthier
products. Quality protein maize (Zea mays L.) is an option but has never been adapted to short –
season environments. Quality ...
