Whole Wheat Milling and Baking Studies of Hard Red Spring Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2016)End product quality of whole wheat bread is affected by many complex parameters. The milling method and chemical composition of bran both affect whole wheat bread quality. When using a centrifugal mill, the combination of ... -
Hard Red Spring Wheat Quality Evaluation with Various Roller Mill Types and Breadmaking Methods
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Roller mill type and breadmaking methods might be a source of variation in the evaluation of the end-use quality of Hard Red Spring (HRS) wheat. In this study, various roller mill types and baking methods have been used ... -
Variation in Core and Accessory Parts of Genome of Escherichia Coli Isolated from Soil from Riparian Areas in New York State
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Escherichia coli is commensal bacteria and is a symbiont of the digestive system of vertebrates. Due to frequent deposition of E. coli into extrahost habitats (soil, water), approximately half of its population exists as ... -
Environmental Influence on Cold-Climate Grapevine (Vitis Spp.) Fall Acclimation Response and Fruit Ripening
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Two experiments were conducted to determine differences in sensitivity to temperature among cold-climate grapevine genotypes in fall-acclimation response. One experiment utilized a growth chamber to compare grapevine ... -
Triallate Efficacy to Suspected Herbicide Resistant Wild Oat (Avena fatua L.) in Spring Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Herbicide-resistant weed populations have increased because of continuous use of the same grass herbicides. Several collections of wild oat with resistance to ACCase and ALS herbicides have been documented in North Dakota, ... -
Characterization of Common Wheat Translocations Carrying Leaf Rust Resistance Genes from Alien Species
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Erikss may inflict significant yield losses in wheat; however, can be controlled by breeding for increased host resistance. In earlier studies, effective, resistance has been transferred ... -
Genome-Wide Association Study of Heat Tolerance in Rapeseed/Canola (Brassica Napus L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Genome-wide association study of heat stress tolerance in rapeseed/canola was conducted in greenhouse, growth chamber, and in the field. A total of 37,539 SNP markers were used in this study. In the greenhouse and growth ... -
Determining Optimum Seeding Rates for Diverse Hard Red Spring Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.) Cultivars
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Seeding rate for maximum grain yield can differ for diverse hard red spring wheat (HRSW) (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars and can be derived from a seeding rate response curve. Six groups of HRSW cultivars with combinations ... -
Symmetric Protoplast Fusion in Interserial Syringa (Oleaceae) Hybridization
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Few other woody plants embody the preeminence of temperate woody plants in garden cultivation like the lilacs. In spite of their relationship, the trees lack the diversity of cultivated floral forms observed within the ... -
Screening of the USDA Core Collection of Common Bean for Reaction to Halo Blight and Identification of Genomic Regions Associated with Resistance
(North Dakota State University, 2016)With only three sources of resistance currently known to race 6 of Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola (Burkholder) (Psp) which causes halo blight, an important bacterial disease of common bean, there is an urgent need ... -
Hardwood Floricane Blackberry Cuttings & Production of Primocane Blackberry in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Blackberry (Rubus L. subgenus Rubus, Watson) is not a commercially produced crop in North Dakota since the available floricane cultivars are not winter hardy. Two experiments were performed to evaluate alternative methods ... -
Identifying Dry Bean Genotypes and Genomic Regions Associated with Root Rot Resistance with Emphasis on Fusarium Solani F. Sp Phaseoli
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most produced legume in the U.S. and worldwide. Fusarium root rot (FRR) is a widespread soil-borne diseases causing up to 86% yield reduction in beans. Large-seeded cultivars are ... -
Oil-Based Food Extracts from Distillers Dried Grains
(North Dakota State University, 2016)The goal of this project was to examine benefits of developing a DDGS-based extract for human food consumption. The antioxidant activity of extracts derived from corn and distillers’ dried grains with solubles (DDGS) was ... -
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 ... -
Development of a Diverse Base Population for Hard Red Winter Wheat Recurrent Mass Selection
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Limited germplasm is available for a newly established NDSU hard red winter wheat breeding program. Therefore, a diverse pre-breeding base population was produced to broaden genetic variability through recurrent mass ... -
Susceptible Crop Response to Soil Residues and Foliar Exposure of Dicamba
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Dry bean, soybean, sugarbeet, and sunflower were tested for tolerance to dicamba residue in soil. Visible injury was seen on dry bean and soybean depending on location, but yield differences were not present. Increasing ... -
Frontenac' Response to Leaf Removal and Training Systems and a Microvinification and Deacidification Bioassay of Interspecific Hybrids (Vitis SPP.)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Vineyard production and acid reduction microvinification experiments were conducted on interspecific hybrid grape cultivars in North Dakota. Training system and leaf removal effects on yield and quality for ‘Frontenac’ ... -
Solvent Retention Capacity and Quality Parameters of Whole Wheat Flour from Hard Red Spring Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2016)A relatively new method, solvent retention capacity (SRC), is used to determine flour end-product quality. SRC was designed for soft wheat, which is used for baking cookies. The use of SRC to evaluate Hard Red Spring (HRS) ... -
