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 ...
Genetic Characterization of Dormancy in Durum Wheat
(North Dakota State University, 2012)
Two populations derived by crossing LDN x LDN Dic-3A (Population I) and LDN x LDN Dic-3B (Population II) were genetically characterized for the seed dormancy present on chromosome 3A and 3B of durum wheat. The genes for ...
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 ...
Computational Identification, Phylogenetic and Synteny Analysis of Receptor-Like Kinases “RLK” and Receptor-Like Proteins “RLP” in Legumes
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Legumes are considered the second most important family of crop plants after the grass family based on economic relevance. In recent years, the field of legume genomics has expanded due to advancements in high-throughput ...
Pre-Harvest Glyphosate Use During Wheat Cultivation: Effects on Wheat Chemistry and Human Gut Microbiota
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the world which is sometimes utilized as a pre-harvest desiccant during wheat cultivation. It inhibits the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase enzyme in the shikimic ...
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 ...
