Genomic Mapping of Leaf Rust and Stem Rust Resistance Loci in Durum Wheat and Use of RAD-Genotype by Sequencing for the Study of Population Genetics in Puccinia Titicina
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina Erikss. (Pt), and stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici Erikss. and E. Henn (Pgt), are among the most devastating diseases of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. ...
Molecular Characterization and Pathogenicity of Sunflower Stem Pathogens
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) production can be limited by several stem diseases.
Among these, Phomopsis stem canker causes frequent yield reductions in Australia, Europe and
North America. In the U.S., while Diaporthe ...
Characterization of Sensitivity of Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum Isolates from North Central U.S. to Thiophanate-Methyl and Metconazole
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary causes Sclerotinia stem rot on canola and many other crops of economic importance in the U.S. SSR is primarily controlled with fungicides applied at flowering time. Most fungicides ...
Downy Mildew of Sunflowers: Establishment of Baseline Sensitivity to Azoxystrobin and Monitoring for the Development of Fungicide Resistance and Plasmopara Halstedii Virulence Phenotype Changes
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Downy mildew, caused by Plasmopara halstedii (Farl.) Berl. and de Toni, is an economically important disease in cultivated sunflowers, Helianthus annuus L. The objectives of this study were to determine disease pressure ...
Characterization and Identification of Genetic Resistance to Puccinia Graminis F. Sp. Tritici in Triticum Aestivum and Hordeum Vulgare
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Wheat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is a major threat to wheat (Triticum aestivum) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) production. The emergence of the highly virulent Ug99-lineage stem rust races ...
Genetic and Physiological Relationships between Oat Grain Quality Components
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The use of oats for human consumption is increasing every day due to the health benefits of oat products. With the objective to study relationships among factors affecting oat grain quality, two Recombinant Inbred Lines ...
Developing a DNA Fingerprint for Midwest Six-rowed Malting Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
The requirements for brewing beer from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) malt are specific and unique for each brewer. Anheuser-Busch InBev and Miller Coors Brewing Company (MillerCoors) are two major brewers in the United States ...
Structural Changes in North American Fertilizer Logistics
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Nitrogen-based fertilizer industry in United States is undergoing major changes the demand for which is primarily driven by agriculture. Traditionally, this industry sources anhydrous ammonia through imports from Canada ...
Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Associated with a Low Cadmium Uptake Gene in Durum Wheat (Triticum Turgidum L. Var. Durum)
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The main objective of durum wheat breeding is to identify lines that are low in Cadmium accumulation by using linkage mapping. 178 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from across between Grenora × Haurani were used to ...
Rust Resistance in the Guatemalan Climbing Bean Germplasm Collection
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Common bean is the main source of protein, fiber, and iron for Guatemalan's poorest households; however, bean rust can cause up to 100% yield losses. There is limited information about bean rust in Guatemala, especially ...
