Genomics and Management of Fusarium Root Rot of Field Peas
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Dry Pea or field pea (Pisum sativum L.) is an important cool season legume crop grown in the United States. Field peas are vulnerable to many diseases of which, soil borne diseases including wilt and root rot are of major ... -
Histology of Spot Blotch Infection in Barley, QTL Mapping of Resistance to Fusarium Head Blight, and Characterization of Root Rot Diseases in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Three independent studies were conducted for spot blotch (Bipolaris sorokiniana), Fusarium head blight (FHB) (Fusarium graminearum), and root rot diseases (Fusarium species and B. sorokiniana). Histopathology of compatible ... -
Identification and Characterization of Novel Cercospora beticola Necrosis-Inducing Effectors
(North Dakota State University, 2021)Cercospora beticola is a hemibiotrophic fungus responsible for Cercospora leaf spot disease of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris). Plant pathogens such as C. beticola utilize “effector” molecules to aid in disease establishment. ... -
Identification and Characterization of Pythium Spp. on Glycine Max (Soybean) in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2013)The Oomycete Pythium comprises one of the most important groups of seedling pathogens affecting soybean, causing both pre- and post-emergence damping off. Numerous species of Pythium have been identified and found to be ... -
Identification and Functional Characterization of Necrotrophic Effectors in Parastagonospora Nodorum
(North Dakota State University, 2015)The necrotrophic fungus Parastagonospora nodorum (teleomorph; Phaeosphaeria nodorum), is the causal agent of Septoria nodorum blotch (SNB) on common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L.). ... -
Identification and Genomic Mapping of Resistance to Bacterial Leaf Streak in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Bacterial leaf streak (BLS) of wheat, caused by Xanthomonas translucens pv. undulosa, is an important disease of wheat worldwide. Use of resistant cultivars is the most preferred way of managing BLS. The objective of this ... -
Identification of Brassica Napus L. Sources of Resistance Against Blackleg (Leptosphaeria Maculans)
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Blackleg, caused by the fungus Leptosphaeria maculans (Desm.) Ces. et de Not. [anamorph = Phoma lingam (Tode: Fr.) Desm.] has become the most important disease affecting canola around the world. A study was conducted to ... -
Identification of Host Resistant Effective against the Barley Spot Form Net Blotch Pathogen
(North Dakota State University, 2014)Spot form net blotch (SFNB) caused by Pyrenophora teres f. maculata is a major foliar disease of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) worldwide. SFNB epidemics have recently been observed in major barley producing countries, ... -
Identification of Multiple Virulence Loci in Pyrenophora Teres F. Teres Associated with Net Form Net Blotch in Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2013)The necrotrophic fungal pathogen Pyrenophora teres f. teres causes the foliar disease net form net blotch (NFNB) on barley (Hordeum vulgare). To investigate the genetics of virulence in the barley- P. teres f. teres ... -
