Soybean Productivity as Affected by Raised Seedbeds and Subsurface Drainage
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Soils of the Red River of the North Valley (RRNV) are susceptible to waterlogging upon excessive rainfall events. Raised seedbeds and subsurface drainage are methods to reduce waterlogging in soils. The objectives of ...
Kentucky Bluegrass Growth and Performance As Affected by Salinity and Salt Composition
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Turfgrass growth, development, and functionality are adversely affected by high soil salinity. Most of the previous salinity tolerance research involved NaCl-induced saline conditions. However, there are regions such as ...
Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Interaction Analysis: A Critical Step for Wheat Germplasm Enhancement
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Wheat (Triticum aestivum) possesses the largest set of available alloplasmic lines in either the plant or animal kingdom. These alloplasmic lines consist of novel combinations of wheat cultivar nuclei and cytoplasm, derived ...
Nitrogen Effects on Low-Protein and Semidwarf Genotypes for Malting Barley Production in Western North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Producing barley that meets the quality specifications set by the malting and brewing industry can be difficult in western North Dakota growing conditions. Semidwarf and low protein genotypes may help producers of malting ...
Biotic and Abiotic Factors Affecting the Survival of Listeria Monocytogenes in Prairie Pothole Soils and Sediments
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The diversity-invasion relationship states that more diverse communities are more resistant to invasion. Listeria monocytogenes – a gram-positive facultative anaerobe, soil saprotroph, and opportunistic human pathogen – ...
Serviceberry: Potential North Dakota Accessions for the Nursery Industry
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Saskatoon serviceberry (Amelanchier alnifolia Nutt.) is an ornamental Rosaceous shrub producing delicate white flowers that yield fruit similar in appearance and nutrition to blueberry (Vaccinium spp.). Most serviceberry ...
Genetic Analysis of Frost Tolerance in Rapeseed/Canola (Brassica Napus L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Frost can be detrimental to canola (Brassica napus L.) production. Depending on the severity, the entire field can be killed. Having frost tolerance in canola would benefit growers by allowing them to plant early, utilize ...
Productivity and Sustainability of Intercropping Systems in the Northern Great Plains
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
The sustainability and productivity of cropping systems in the northern Great Plains is at risk because food, feed, and energy are produced mainly in very short crop rotations or monocultures. High input agriculture and ...
Analysis and Identification of QTL for Resistance to Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum in Pea (Pisum sativum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
White mold caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorumi s one of the most devastating diseases infecting field pea (Pisum sativum L.) which causes severe yield loss worldwide. Population 17 (Lifter/ PI240515), and Population 19 ...
Raised Beds, Tile Drainage, and Nitrogen Fertilizer Management on Corn Yield in Eastern North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Surface drainage, tillage, and different nitrogen fertilizer rates and management practices can influence corn (Zea mays L.) grain yield. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of subsurface drainage, ...
