Abstract:: ... Corn (Zea mays) samples were submitted to the Purdue Plant and Pest Diagnostic Lab (PPDL) in 2018 (mature plants), 2019 (seedlings), and 2020 (seedlings) from multiple Indiana counties (DeKalb, Monroe, Jasper, Tippecanoe, and La Porte) that showed general stunting and moderate to severe root necrosis. Symptomatic roots were surface sterilized with 10% sodium hypochlorite for 1 min, rinsed with ste ...

Abstract:: ... Cheatgrass is an annual grass species from Eurasia that has become invasive in much of western North America. It has been implicated in recent increases in the frequency, size, and intensity of wildfires, contributing to severe economic, environmental, and social destruction. In order to reduce this damage, the USDA-ARS established a classical biological control program against cheatgrass. In 2018 ...

Abstract:: ... Camelina sativa (L.) Crntz. is a hardy self-pollinated oilseed plant that belongs to the Brassicaceae family; widely grown throughout the northern hemisphere until the 1940s for production of vegetable oil but was later displaced by higher-yielding rapeseed and sunflower crops. However, interest in camelina as an alternative oil source has been renewed due to its high oil content tha ...

Abstract:: ... Maternal high-fat (HF) diet predisposes offspring to metabolic syndrome, in part, by inducing alterations during placental development resulting in abnormal fetal development and offspring birth weight. We previously reported in a rat model that a maternal malnutrition diet increases fetal inflammation, and placental vascularization, and decreases offspring birth weight followed by adult-onset obe ...
