Genome-wide Association Study and Genomic Prediction for Pod Shatter Resistance in Brassica napus L.
(North Dakota State University, 2022)The release of seeds from a mature dry pod is known as shattering. Pod shattering results in significant yield losses in rapeseed/canola. An experiment was conducted in five environments in 2020 and 2021 under the field ... -
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 ... -
Genomic Analysis of Domestication-Related Traits and Stem Rust Resistance in Tetraploid Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Modern durum and common wheat cultivars were developed from ancient wheat ancestors by natural and artificial selection of agronomic and domestication traits, which ultimatey decreased their genetic diversity and made them ... -
Genomic and Molecular Characterization of Pyrenphora teres f. teres
(North Dakota State University, 2019)Pyrenophora teres f. teres is the causal agent of net form net blotch of barley. P. teres f. teres is prevalent globally across all barley growing regions and globally is the most devastating foliar disease of barley. ... -
Genotype and Environmental Effects on Quality Traits of Durum Wheat Grown in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Variation in grain, semolina, dough strength, and pasta quality traits were evaluated using the effect of genotype and weather factors (air temperature, rainfall, and relative humidity). In addition, size exclusion high ... -
Genotype-by-Environment Interaction in Sunflowers for the Northern Plains
(North Dakota State University, 2018)Genotype by environment interaction (GxE) is the tendency of the phenotypic performance of two or more plant genotypes in one environment to not be predictive of their relative performance in another environment. To discover ... -
Glandular Trichome Evaluation through Scanning Electron Microscopy and the Modified Enzymic Browning Assay
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) ranks fifth in the USA in comparison with other countries regarding potato production. Colorado potato beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say) is a devastating insect pest affecting potato in ... -
Glutograph 'E': A Simple Rheometer to Measure Quality of Cooked Pasta
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Glutograph ‘E’ was designed to determine the stretch and relaxation properties of wet gluten. Usage of this equipment to evaluate the cooked pasta texture has not been reported and thus is the goal of this research. ... -
Glycoalkaloid Profiling of Potato Genotypes from the North Dakota State University Potato Breeding Program
(North Dakota State University, 2013)Gylcoalkaloids (GA) are plant secondary metabolites that offer pests and disease resistance. Studies show correlation between GA content and CPB resistance. In this study, CPB resistance was assessed in a field trial at ... -
H13 Efficacy as a Spring Cereal Crop Herbicide
(North Dakota State University, 2012)H13 is an experimental herbicide that has activity on both broadleaf and grass weeds. This project evaluated H13 efficacy as a spring cereal herbicide by determining H13 site of entry into plants, tolerance of hard red ... -
Hammer and Roller Milling of Yellow Split Pea
(North Dakota State University, 2019)Blending nutrient-rich pulses into cereal-based convenience foods could benefit consumers and the cereal and pulse industries but first requires appropriate milling of raw pulses, for which there is no standardized method. ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Herbicide Screening in Industrial Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) Production
(North Dakota State University, 2021)Lack of labeled herbicides for industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) production in the U.S. accentuates urgency to identify herbicides for weed control. Weed competition reduced seed yield by 25 to 32%. Pre- and post-emergence ... -
High tunnels extend the growing season in warm season crops tomato, cucumber and bell pepper
(North Dakota State University, 2020)High tunnels are used to modify the crop environment by trapping solar energy, providing protection from unfavorable weather events, and extending the growing season in temperate regions. This project assessed yield and ... -
Homoeologous Recombination-Based Chromosome Engineering for Physical Mapping and Introgression in Wheat and Its Relatives Aegilops speltoides and Thinopyrum elongatum
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Wheat (genome AABBDD) is one of the essential crops, offering approximate 20% of human calorie consumption worldwide. Allopolyploidization of three diploid ancestors led to hexaploid wheat with narrowed genetic variation. ... -
Homoeology of Thinopyrum Junceum and Elymus Rectisetus Chromosomes to Wheat and Disease Resistance Conferred by the Thinopyrum and Elymus Chromosome in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Thirteen common wheat ‘Chinese Spring’ (CS)-Thinopyrum junceum addition lines and three common wheat ‘Fukuhokomuji’(Fuku)-Elymus rectisetus addition lines were characterized and verified as disomic additions of a Th. junceum ... -
