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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Comparative Population Genetics of Fusarium Graminearum and Novel Sources of Resistance to Fusarium Head Blight in Spring Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
Fusarium graminearum is the major causal agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereal crops. The fungus produces several types of trichothecenes [Deoxynivalenol (DON) and its acetylated derivatives, 3-acetyldeoxynivalenol ...
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 ...
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 ...
Studies on the Management of Potato Mop-Top Virus-Induced Tuber Necrosis
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Tuber necrosis caused by the Potato Mop-top Virus (PMTV) has become one of the most important tuber necrosis diseases in the United States. PMTV is transmitted by the powdery scab pathogen (Spongospora subterranea f.sp ...
Studies on the Development and Management of Powdery Scab and Root Gall Formation Caused by Spongospora Subterranea on Potato (Solanum Tuberosum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
The biotroph protozoan Spongospora subterranea causes root gall formation and powdery scab on potato. Symptoms on tubers affect directly the quality and marketability of the harvested product while infection in roots are ...
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 ...
