Weed Control with Cover Crops in Potato (Solanum Tuberosum L.)
(North Dakota State University, 2013)Field experiments were conducted near Oakes and Fargo, North Dakota from 2009-2010, and repeated near Carrington, North Dakota from 2010-2011, to evaluate weed control in both irrigated and non-irrigated potato production ... -
Weed Management and Soil Quality Outcomes of Non-Chemical Weed Control Tactics
(North Dakota State University, 2018)In the Northern Great Plains (NGP), weed management within organic systems remains a challenge. Experiments were conducted at two distinct sites in North Dakota to investigate effects of deep mulch no-till (NT) on soil ... -
Wheat Traits Variations, Associations, and Potential Improvement from Crosses of Elite X Non-Adapted Germplasm
(North Dakota State University, 2011)Wheat improvement most often has been accompanied by a narrowing germplasm base, as newer cultivars have been derived from intercrosses between elite germplasm. However, there is a concern that narrow germplasm may restrict ... -
X-Ray Induced Mutagenesis in Sunflower Pollen
(North Dakota State University, 2022)The identification of new sunflower hybrids that have desirable traits depends on the availability of adequate genetic resources. A critical part of sunflower breeding is to find and recombine genetic variability into ... -
Yield Comparison of Transplanted Tomato and Pepper Plants Grown in Different Sized Cell Packs
(North Dakota State University, 2010)Field experiments were conducted at Fargo, North Dakota, in 2006 and repeated at Fargo, Oakes, North Dakota, and Absaraka, North Dakota, in 2007 to compare time to harvest and yields from tomatoes (Lycopersicon escu/entum ... -
Yield-Limiting Factors in North Dakota Soybean Fields
(North Dakota State University, 2017)Average soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] yields in North Dakota remain below north central USA averages, and crop yield potentials. The effect of planting date (PD), cultivar relative maturity (RM), and seeding rate (SR), ...
