Biology and Management of Fusarium Species on Sugar Beet
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Minnesota and North Dakota together produce about 51% of the beet sugar in the United States of America. Fusarium diseases caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. betae and F. secorum on sugar beet cause significant reduction ...
Augmenting Fungicidal Activity of Tetraconazole with Chemosensitization Agents for Cercospora Leaf Spot Management
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Cercospora beticola (Sacc.) is the causal agent of Cercospora leaf spot (CLS). CLS is considered to be one of the most destructive foliar diseases of sugar beet in the world. CLS is managed in part through resistant ...
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 ...
Stochastic Budgeting and Input Breakeven Analysis in North Dakota Potato Production
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Enterprise budgets were developed for non-irrigated red and irrigated russet potato production, based on North Dakota model farms. Costs and revenues vary among producers, thus budgets are intended to serve as a template ...
Molecular and Histological Study of Sphaerulina musiva-Populus spp. Interaction
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Sphaerulina musiva, the causal agent of leaf spot and stem canker, is responsible for critical yield loss of hybrid poplar in agroforestry. This research examined quantification of S. musiva in host tissue, and infection ...
Parasitic Fitness of SDHI-Sensitive and -Resistant Isolates of Alternaria Solani
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Early blight of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is caused by Alternaria solani Sorauer. The single-site mode of action chemistries of the succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) and quinone outside inhibitors (QoIs) have ...
