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 ...
Quantification of Disease Expression Conferred by Three Host Gene-Necrotrophic Effector Interactions in the Wheat-Parastagonospora Nodorum Pathosystem
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Septoria nodorum blotch is a wheat foliar and glume disease caused by Parastagonospora nodorum, a necrotrophic fungal pathogen. Snn1-SnTox1, Snn3-B1-SnTox3, and Tsn1-SnToxA are three important interactions between wheat ...
Response of Russet Burbank Seed Tubers Containing Glyphosate and Dicamba Residues
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The introduction of dicamba-tolerant soybean will increase the risk of potato injury to dicamba. The objective was to determine the effects of ‘Russet Burbank’ potato seed tuber emergence and yield that were exposed to ...
Uncovering the Genetic Basis and Characters Association of Wheat Spike-Related, Agronomic and Quality Traits
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Modern wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars are characterized by having spikes with fusiform architecture and rachis nodes with one spikelet. However, genotypes with supernumerary spikelets (SS) in which rachis nodes ...
Association Studies on Pre-Germination Flooding Tolerance and Cell Wall Components Related to Plant Architecture in Dry Bean
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Dry bean breeding programs have made significant advances in combating both abiotic and biotic stresses as well as improving plant architectural traits via selective breeding. Flooding can cause complete crop loss in dry ...
