Inoculation Techniques, Development of Brassica Napus Breeding Lines and Identification of Markers Associated with Resistance to Sclerotinia Sclerotiorum (Lib.) De Bary
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Sclerotinia stem rot caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary is an economic disease affecting canola (Brassica napus L). Since expression of sclerotinia stem rot symptoms shows much variability and the trait is ... -
Managing Economically Important Diseases of Sunflower and Oilseed Rape in North Dakota, California, and Schleswig-Holstein
(North Dakota State University, 2021)Rust, caused by Puccinia helianthi, and blackleg, caused by Leptosphaeria maculans, are economically important diseases on sunflower and oilseed rape, respectively. In order to recommend the most effective disease management ... -
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 ... -
Molecular Characterization and Pathogenicity of Sunflower Stem Pathogens
(North Dakota State University, 2014)Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) production can be limited by several stem diseases. Among these, Phomopsis stem canker causes frequent yield reductions in Australia, Europe and North America. In the U.S., while Diaporthe ... -
Molecular Genetic Characterization of Ptr ToxC-Tsc1 Interaction and Comparative Genomics of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis
(North Dakota State University, 2018)Tan spot of wheat, caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis, is an economically important disease worldwide. The disease system is known to involve three pairs of interactions between fungal-produced necrotrophic effectors ... -
Molecular Mapping of QTL for Genetic Transformation-Related Trait and CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Gene Editing in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2022)Plant transformation is a valuable tool for gene characterization and crop improvement. However, wheat transformation is greatly impacted by genotype dependency for successful regeneration of the transgenic plants. For ... -
Movement and Accumulation of Candidatus Liberibacter Solanacearum in Potato Plants
(North Dakota State University, 2012)A new disease affecting potatoes was first detected in Mexico in 1993. Affected plants had aerial symptoms similar to those caused by potato purple top and psyllid yellows, but tubers had internal brown discoloration when ... -
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 ... -
Pathogenic Variation, Host Specialization and Aggressiveness in Helminthosporium Sativum
(North Dakota State University, 1984)Common root rot, caused by Cochliobolus sativus, is an important disease of spring wheat and barley in the northern Great Plains. While the disease has been widely studied, extensive systematic investigation of pathological ... -
Phenotypic Characterization of Leptosphaeria maculans Pathogenicity Groups Aggressiveness on Brassica napus
(North Dakota State University, 2015)One of the most destructive pathogens of canola (Brassica napus L.) is Leptosphaeria maculans (Desm.) Ces. & De Not., which causes blackleg disease. This fungus produces strains with different virulence profiles (pathogenicity ... -
Plant-Parasitic Nematodes in Field Pea and Potato and their Effect on Plant Growth and Yield
(North Dakota State University, 2018)In this study, surveys were conducted in pea and potato fields in North Dakota and Central Minnesota to investigate the incidence and abundance of plant-parasitic nematodes in these fields. Moreover, the effect of the pin ... -
Plant-Parasitic Nematodes on Corn (Zea mays L.) and Soybean (Glycine max L.) in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Four studies were conducted to investigate plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) of corn and soybean in ND. The first study investigated the incidence and abundance of vermiform PPN in ND corn fields in 2015 and 2016. Samples ... -
Plant-Parasitic Nematodes on Sugarbeet in North Dakota and Minnesota
(North Dakota State University, 2019)Field surveys were conducted in the Red River Valley (RRV) of North Dakota and Minnesota during 2016 and 2017 to determine the incidence, abundance, and distribution of plant-parasitic nematodes (PPNs) on sugarbeet. ... -
Population Structure of Uromyces appendiculatus in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2019)North Dakota is the lead producing state of common bean in the USA, accounting for 43% of national production. Bean rust is caused by the autoecious, macrocyclic fungus Uromyces appendiculatus (Pers.:Pers.). All pathogen ... -
Prevalence of Pathogenicity Groups of the Blackleg Species Complex on Canola in North Dakota
(North Dakota State University, 2011)North Dakota is the leading producer of canola (Brassica napus) in the United States. Blackleg, caused by two species of Leptosphaeria, L. maculans (Desm.) Ces & De Not and L. biglobosa, is an economically important disease ... -
