(North Dakota State University, 2017)Cercospora beticola (Sacc.) is the causal agent of Cercospora leaf spot (CLS). CLS is considered to be one of the most destructive foliar diseases of sugar beet in the world. CLS is managed in part through resistant ... -
Biology and Development of Two Wilt Fungi of Potato: Verticilliam Dahliae and Colletotrichum Coccodes
(North Dakota State University, 2012)The demand for high quality tubers for the frozen processing industry has exerted increased pressure on producers to control diseases that can compromise tuber quality, including, C. coccodes and V. dahliae. Infection of ... -
Biology and Management of Fusarium Species on Sugar Beet
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Minnesota and North Dakota together produce about 51% of the beet sugar in the United States of America. Fusarium diseases caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. betae and F. secorum on sugar beet cause significant reduction ... -
Characteristics and Host Range of a Novel Fusarium Species Causing Yellowing Decline of Sugarbeet
(North Dakota State University, 2013)In 2008, a novel and distinct Fusarium species was reported in west central Minnesota causing early-season yellowing and severe decline of sugarbeet. This study was conducted to (i) establish optimum conditions for fungal ... -
Characterization and Detection of Bacterial Pathogens of Common Bean
(North Dakota State University, 2022)Common bacterial blight (CBB) (Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli (Xap) and X. fuscans pv. fuscans (Xff), halo blight (Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. phaseolicola (Psp)), and bacterial brown spot (P. syringae pv. syringae ... -
Characterization and Identification of Genetic Resistance to Puccinia Graminis F. Sp. Tritici in Triticum Aestivum and Hordeum Vulgare
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Wheat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is a major threat to wheat (Triticum aestivum) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) production. The emergence of the highly virulent Ug99-lineage stem rust races ... -
Characterization of Cytochrome B from European Field Isolates of Cercospora Beticola with Quinone Outside Inhibitor Resistance
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Cercospora leaf spot (CLS), caused by the fungal pathogen Cercospora beticola, is the most important foliar disease of sugar beet worldwide. Control strategies for CLS rely heavily on fungicides including quinone outside ... -
Characterization of Effector Encoding Genes from the Novel Sugar Beet Pathogen Fusarium Secorum
(North Dakota State University, 2015)A new disease of sugar beet, named Fusarium yellowing decline, was recently found in in the Red River Valley of MN and ND. This disease is caused by a novel pathogen named Fusarium secorum. Pathogens such as F. secorum ... -
Characterization of Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating fungal disease threatening wheat production worldwide. Utilization of resistant wheat cultivars is generally considered as the most effective, economic and environmental friendly ... -
Characterization of North Dakota Hard Red Spring Wheat for Stem and Stripe Rust Resistance
(North Dakota State University, 2022)Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt) and Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) are causal agents of devastating wheat stem and stripe rust diseases, respectively. Both diseases sporadically occur in North Dakota (ND), ... -
Characterization of Pea Seed-Borne Mosaic Virus, Efficacy of Foliar Applications for Common Bacterial Blight Management in Dry Beans and Impact of Common Bacterial Blight on Prostrate and Upright Beans
(North Dakota State University, 2018)PSbMV in field pea has resulted in substantial yield and seed quality losses world-wide and has recently been reported in North Dakota. Traditional management of this virus includes preventative measures such as removal ... -
