Homoeologous Recombination-Based Chromosome Engineering for Physical Mapping and Introgression in Wheat and Its Relatives Aegilops speltoides and Thinopyrum elongatum
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Wheat (genome AABBDD) is one of the essential crops, offering approximate 20% of human calorie consumption worldwide. Allopolyploidization of three diploid ancestors led to hexaploid wheat with narrowed genetic variation. ... -
Identification and Genomic Analysis of Stagonospora Nodorum Blotch Susceptibility Genes in Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2014)Parastagonospora nodorum is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen that causes the disease Stagonospora nodorum blotch (SNB) on wheat. The fungus produces necrotrophic effectors (NEs), that when recognized by corresponding host ... -
Identification and Introgression of Novel Genes for Stem Rust Ug99 Resistance from Relative Species of Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Wheat stem rust, caused by Puccinia graminis Pers.: Pers f. sp. tritici Eriks. & E. Henn. (Pgt), is a destructive disease that can cause severe yield losses in wheat. A new Pgt race Ug99 (TTKSK), which was first identified ... -
Identification and Validation of a New Source of Low Grain Cadmium Accumulation in Durum Wheat (Triticum Turgidum L. Subsp. Durum (Defs.))
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal with no known biological function. The maximum level of Cd concentration allowed in the international market for wheat grain is 0.2 mg kg-1. Higher Cd levels in durum wheat (Triticum ... -
Identification of Genomic Regions Associated With Color-Related Traits in Durum Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2022)Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum Desf.) is one of the main crops for human consumption, and it is an essential ingredient for pasta production. The color of pasta can range from bright yellow to dim brown. Pasta ... -
Identification of Molecular Markers for Marker-Assisted Selection of Malting Quality and Associated Traits in Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2015)Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the most important cereal crops in North Dakota, which ranks second amongst all states for barley production in the United States. Barley is used for the production of malt, which is ... -
Identification of Molecular Markers Linked to X-Disease Resistance in Chokecherry
(North Dakota State University, 2012)X-disease, caused by phytoplasmas, is one of the destructive diseases in stone fruit trees, causing yield loss and poor fruit quality. So far no effective methods are available to control X-disease. X-disease resistance ... -
Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Associated with a Low Cadmium Uptake Gene in Durum Wheat (Triticum Turgidum L. Var. Durum)
(North Dakota State University, 2013)The main objective of durum wheat breeding is to identify lines that are low in Cadmium accumulation by using linkage mapping. 178 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from across between Grenora × Haurani were used to ... -
Identifying Dry Bean Genotypes and Genomic Regions Associated with Root Rot Resistance with Emphasis on Fusarium Solani F. Sp Phaseoli
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is the most produced legume in the U.S. and worldwide. Fusarium root rot (FRR) is a widespread soil-borne diseases causing up to 86% yield reduction in beans. Large-seeded cultivars are ... -
Improved Viability of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG During Storage and Simulated Gastrointestinal Digestion by Encapsulation
(North Dakota State University, 2021)Probiotics are “live microorganisms which when administered in adequate amounts confer a health benefit on the host”. However, the current techniques are still struggling with delivering enough live probiotics into the ... -
Improvement of Organoleptic Attributes of Yellow Pea Flour Through An Emerging Green Technology: Supercritical Carbon Dioxide + Ethanol Extraction
(North Dakota State University, 2020)An increasing demand for following healthier eating pattern has created a rapidly growing food market, including more nutrient dense and healthier plant-based foods. Nutrient-dense yellow pea flour is ideal for addressing ... -
Improvement of the Physicochemical Attributes and Antioxidants Profiles from Pulse Seeds through Germination
(North Dakota State University, 2019)Edible pulse seeds are good sources of food ingredients. Germination has been regarded as an effective process to further improve nutrient digestibility and accessibility of pulse seeds. Our aim was to observe the effect ... -
Managing Soybean Cyst Nematode by Utilizing Cover Crops and Resistant Sources from Early Maturing Soybean Accessions
