(North Dakota State University, 2015)Tan spot, caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis (Ptr), is an economically important disease on both common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and durum (T. turgidum L. ssp. durum). Genetics of resistance to tan spot is complicated ... -
Rhizoctonia Solani Damping-Off of Sugarbeet: Effect of Plant Growth Stage on Disease Severity and Management Using Penthiopyrad
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Rhizoctonia solani is the most damaging pathogen on sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris L.) in North Dakota and Minnesota. Research was conducted to evaluate penthiopyrad for controlling R. solani and determine when the plants are ... -
Sensitivity of Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum Isolates From North Central US to Azoxystrobin and Boscalid
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Azoxystrobin and boscalid are fungicides frequently used to manage diseases caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary in many broadleaf crops in North Central US. . Continued use of these compounds can induce ... -
Genetic and Molecular Characterization of Host Resistance and Susceptibility to Pyrenophora Teres F. Teres in Hordeum vulgare
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Pyrenophora teres f. teres, a necrotrophic fungal pathogen and causal agent of net form net blotch (NFNB), is an economically important pathogen of barley (Hordeum vulgare) and has potential to cause significant yield ... -
The Effect of Substitution of Cytoplasmic Organelles on the Responses of Wheat to Foliar Pathogens
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Parastagonospora nodorum and Pyrenophora tritici-repentis are foliar pathogens of wheat, capable of causing up to 50% yield losses, and reduced grain quantity and quality, by infecting wheat leaves and kernels. The most ... -
Towards Identifying the Physical and Molecular Components Involved in Resistance to Leaf Rust Pathogen Puccinia Triticina in Wheat and Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Genetic resistance is the preferred method to reduce yield losses caused by many diseases including wheat leaf rust. However, in many cases host resistance seems to be short-lived. For decades, scientists have tried and ... -
Effectors and Effector Delivery in Magnaporthe Oryzae
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Rice blast, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, is one of the most destructive rice diseases. All plant parts can be affected including leaves, leaf collars, necks, panicles, pedicels, and seeds. The disease symptoms ... -
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. ... -
Development of Management Tools for Sunflower Downy Mildew (Plasmopara Halstedii) and Rust (Puccinia Helianthi)
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Downy mildew (Plasmopara halstedii) and rust (Puccinia helianthi) are two economically important diseases of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) in North Dakota. Both diseases are capable of causing significant reductions in ... -
