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 ... -
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.). ... -
Genetic and Molecular Characterization of Genes Involved in Barley-Cochliobolus Sativus Interaction
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Spot blotch caused by ascomycete fungus Cochliobolus sativus (Ito & Kurib.) Drechs. ex Dastur. [anamorph: Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoem.] is one of the most common and economically important diseases on barley. To ... -
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 ... -
Characterizing Pyrenophora Teres F. Maculata in the Northern United States and Impact of Spot Form Net Blotch on Yield of Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Pyrenophora teres f. maculata causes spot form net blotch (SFNB) on barley and was recently documented in North Dakota. The impact of SFNB on barley, the genetic diversity of the pathogen, and virulence structure are unknown ... -
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 ... -
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 ...
