Genomic Analysis of Septoria nodorum Blotch Susceptibility Genes Snn1 and Snn2 in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Septoria nodorum blotch is a disease of wheat caused by the necrotrophic fungus Parastagonospora nodorum. In the wheat-P. nodorum pathosystem, recognition of pathogen-produced necrotrophic effectors (NEs) by dominant host ...
Gauging Categories of Municipal Water Use Spatially Across North Dakota in Different Size Municipalities
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Little is known about municipal water use in the state of North Dakota. Typically, the only water use information reported to the North Dakota State Water Commission is the amount of water withdrawn as part of a municipal ...
Food Safety Culture: An Underlying Cause for Success and Failures of Food Safety Management Systems
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Food Safety Culture (FSC) is an emerging behavior-based food-safety management concept. FSC has been linked as an underlying cause for food-safety management-system failures during foodborne outbreaks and recall investigations. ...
Managing Upland Vegetation as a Mitigation Strategy for Climate-Change Effects on Prairie-Pothole Wetlands
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Prairie-pothole-wetland water budgets are largely dependent on atmospheric interactions. Modeling of prairie-pothole wetlands has suggested that climate change may cause significant decreases to a wetland’s hydroperiod and ...
Cosmogenic 10Be Surface Exposure Dating and Numerical Modeling of Late Pleistocene Glaciers and Lakes in Northwestern Nevada
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
This thesis focuses on the glacial record in the Pine Forest and Santa Rosa Ranges located in the northwestern Great Basin. Seventeen cosmogenic exposure ages in the two ranges are consistent with observations elsewhere ...
Flexible Nanocomposite Thin Films for Electronic Devices
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
Electronic technology is moving towards flexible, durable, and smaller devices with multifunctional capability. To accelerate this movement, creating materials with outstanding properties is critical. Nanocomposites based ...
North Dakota Wetlands: Changes over Five Years in Prairie Pothole Wetlands and a Description of Vegetative and Soil Properties in a North Dakota Fen
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Wetlands provide ecosystem services such as water quality, flood attenuation, primary productivity, biodiversity, and provide habitats for wildlife. Land use conversions from natural to agricultural and urban landscapes ...
Performance of a Retrofit Detention Basin in Fargo, ND
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
“The Fargo Project” located in Fargo, North Dakota, is an 18-acre stormwater detention basin that was retrofitted in 2015 to include an earthen-channel, sediment forebay, and various native vegetation within the floodplain ...
Plant Community Composition of Douglas Creek Training Area, North Dakota Army National Guard: 1999-2015
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
A vegetation monitoring study was conducted from 1999 to 2015 at Douglas Creek Military Reservation (DCMR), Garrison in McLean County, North Dakota to assess how climatic and military training disturbance affects plant ...
Non-Thermal Plasma Synthesis of Luminescent Silicon Nanocrystals from Cylclohexasilane
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
In this report we establish cyclohexasilane (CHS) as a reliable precursor for non-thermal plasma synthesis of high quality photoluminescent silicon nanocrystals (SiNCs). We demonstrate that this synthesis approach can ...
