Genome-Wide Association Mapping of Host Resistance to Stem Rust, Leaf Rust, Tan Spot, and Septoria Nodorum Blotch in Cultivated Emmer Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Cultivated emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccum) is a good source of genes for resistance to several major diseases of wheat. The objectives of this study were to use genome-wide association analysis to detect ...
Unraveling the Genetic Architecture of Agronomic Traits and Developing a Genome Wide InDel Panel in Common Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) is an economically important legume. The agronomic characteristics of this crop such as days to flower, growth habit and seed yield affect breeding strategies. However, little is known about ...
Genomic Analysis of Domestication-Related Traits and Stem Rust Resistance in Tetraploid Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Modern durum and common wheat cultivars were developed from ancient wheat ancestors by natural and artificial selection of agronomic and domestication traits, which ultimatey decreased their genetic diversity and made them ...
Environmental Influence on Cold-Climate Grapevine (Vitis Spp.) Fall Acclimation Response and Fruit Ripening
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Two experiments were conducted to determine differences in sensitivity to temperature among cold-climate grapevine genotypes in fall-acclimation response. One experiment utilized a growth chamber to compare grapevine ...
Genetic and Physiological Relationships between Oat Grain Quality Components
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
The use of oats for human consumption is increasing every day due to the health benefits of oat products. With the objective to study relationships among factors affecting oat grain quality, two Recombinant Inbred Lines ...
Developing a DNA Fingerprint for Midwest Six-rowed Malting Barley
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
The requirements for brewing beer from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) malt are specific and unique for each brewer. Anheuser-Busch InBev and Miller Coors Brewing Company (MillerCoors) are two major brewers in the United States ...
Radiation Hybrid Mapping of Barley Chromosome 3H
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
Assembly of the barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genome requires high resolution maps for aligning contig-based physical maps along chromosomes. Genetic maps lack accurate information on the physical position of almost half of ...
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 ...
Characterization of Common Wheat Translocations Carrying Leaf Rust Resistance Genes from Alien Species
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
Leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Erikss may inflict significant yield losses in wheat; however, can be controlled by breeding for increased host resistance. In earlier studies, effective, resistance has been transferred ...
Association Mapping and Genetic Diversity Studies of Agronomic and Quality Traits in Durum Wheat [Triticum turgidum L. var. durum (Desf.)]
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
Genetic diversity studies in breeding programs are important to identify parental lines for hybridization and introgression of desirable alleles into elite germplasm. The genetic diversity analysis of 283 North Dakota ...
