- Abstract:
- ... A 2-yr study was conducted to assess the effects of early and late planting on six soft red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars. The purpose was to determine if increased flexibility in planting date is possible for modern wheat cultivars grown in the Middle Atlantic states. Wheat was planted 2 wk prior to, on, and 2 wk after the recommended fly-free planting date at Clarksville (Piedmon ...

- Abstract:
- ... There is increasing interest in growing determinate soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] in the northern USA because of their yielding ability and lodging resistance. These cultivars are approximately half as tall as indeterminate cultivars. The objectives of this study were to estimate the heritabilities of days to R1 and R8, and plant heights at R1 and R8; and to evaluate the relationships among the ...

- Abstract:
- ... No-tillage (NT) crop production practices have been continuously maintained at four sites in Ohio for more than 25 yr. The original experiments involving NT were designed to determine how much tillage was required to produce crops with satisfactory yields and how tillage and rotation interact to effect crop yields, especially corn (Zen mays L.). Long-term effects of NT on crop yields and soil prop ...

- Abstract:
- ... Productivity of nonlegume crops depends partly on nitrate uptake and reduction. To study the nitrate assimilation pathway of plants, the herbicide chlorate has been exploited as an analog of nitrate. Marked variations in visible leaf chlorosis among 15 soft red winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings exposed to 120 μM chlorate were reported by others. From their study, we selected three chlo ...

Sweetpotato virus disease (SPVD) is a disease syndrome due to the dual infection and synergistic interaction of sweetpotato chlorotic stunt crinivirus (SPCSV) and sweetpotato feathery mottle potyvirus (SPFMV). SPVD causes up to 98% yield loss in East Africa. Uganda’s sweetpotato breeding program released six sweetpotato cultivars with moderate to high levels of field SPVD resistance in 1995. A mul ...

- Abstract:

Reseeding with appropriate plant materials that are adapted to the site and competitive enough to replace existing undesirable vegetation is often the most plausible way to reclaim such sites. Unfortunately, many ...

- Abstract:
- ... Rhizomania, caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) and vectored by the soilborne fungus Polymyxa betae Keskin, is one of the most economically damaging diseases affecting sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.). The virus likely originated in Europe and was first identified in California in 1983 (1). It has since spread among American sugar beet production regions in spite of vigorous sanitation ...

Traditional, high linolenic acid flax must have brown seed, while solin or zero linolenic acid flax must be yellow-seeded. The objective of this study was to determine the allelic–gene relationship of the dominant yellow gene, the variegated recessive gene, and various spontaneous and unknown reces ...

However, the prevalence of short, weak fibers has presented some real and perceived processing concerns. The purpose of this paper is to report on the experiences of government scientists during their work with ...

- Abstract:
- ... Fifteen microsatellite simple-sequence repeat (SSR) loci were used to genotype 58 accessions of cultivated olive, Olea europaea L. ssp. europaea var. europaea, from two collections of 19th to 20th century plantings in Arizona and California, in order to examine genetic diversity and structure within and among collections. These collections are Lotusland Gardens in Santa Barbara, CA, and the Arbore ...

- Abstract:
- ... Russian wheat aphid (RWA) (Diuraphis noxia Kurdjumov) infestations of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cause chlorotic leaf spotting and streaking and prevent unrolling of leaves, which traps spikes and reduces grain yield. Resistant accessions identified in the USDA-ARS National Small Grains Collection (NSGC) were used to develop adapted, resistant germplasm and cultivars. This study identified loci a ...

- Abstract:
- ... The USDA-ARS breeding program has identified a recessively-controlled genetic variant in highbush blueberry (V. corymbosum L.) that results in parthenocarpic fruit development. Current studies are underway to refine our understanding of this variant, and to move this trait into desirable and useful genetic backgrounds. In rabbiteye blueberry (V. ashei Reade), a species with critical cross-pollinat ...

Although seed treatments are available for control of common bunt and dwarf bunt of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. and other Triticum species), host resistance is an important part of cultivar development in many areas of the world. Few resistance genes are used, creating vulnerability to new pathogenic races. Thousands of landraces from the USDA National Small Grains Collection were screened for res ...

Apple production has high costs for land, labor and inputs, and orchards are a long-term commitment. Production is dominated by only a few apple scion and rootstock cultivars, which increases its susceptibility to dynamic external threats. Apple crop wild relatives, including progenitor species Malus s ...

- ... Curly top caused by Beet curly top virus is a widespread disease problem vectored by the beet leafhopper in semiarid sugar beet production areas. Host resistance is the primary defense against this problem, but resistance in commercial cultivars is only low to intermediate. In order to identify novel sources of curly top resistance, 13 sugar beet lines were screened in a disease nursery in 2017. T ...

- Abstract:
- ... Citrus germplasm is conserved in genebanks at sites around the world to provide genetic resources for breeding and research programs. The value of genebank collections is particularly evident as diseases and climate change threaten citrus production areas. We provide historical, inventory, and maintenance information about national citrus collections in Russia and in the United States. The Russian ...

- Abstract:
- ... The American cranberry (Vaccinium macrocarpon) is an endemic domesticated species that has become an economically important commercial fruit crop. The USDA-ARS National Clonal Germplasm Repository (NCGR) houses the national Vaccinium collection, which includes representatives of historical cranberry cultivars and wild-selected germplasm. The objective of this study was to examine the genotypes of ...

These models consider alleles shared between lines to predict phenotypes and select new lines based on estimated breeding values. This approach can leverage highly unbalanced datasets that are common to breeding programs. The Southern Regional Performance Nursery (S ...

Selection for high fiber quality was once a less important objective in cotton breeding. With the transition of the U.S. cotton industry from a domestic consumer to a major exporter of raw fibers into the global market and the technol ...

Waxy starch consists only of amylopectin, imparts unique cooking properties, and serves as an efficient substrate for the production of modified food starches. To expand the genetic variation of waxy wheats useful to Great Plains breeding programs, the USDA-ARS, in cooperation with the University of Neb ...

- Abstract:
- ... Rhizomania caused by Beet necrotic yellow vein virus (BNYVV) and storage losses are serious sugar beet production problems. To identify sugar beet germplasm lines with resistance to BNYVV and storage rots, 30 USDA-ARS Beta vulgaris Plant Introduction (PI) Lines and four check cultivars were screened. The lines were grown in a sugar beet field infested with BNYVV during the 2017 growing season in a ...

Traditional tree breeding programs face the challenges of long generation time and significant expense in land and personnel resources. Avocado selection and breeding can be more efficient and less expensive through the development of molecular markers for the estimation of germplasm genetic diversity, marker-assi ...

M. enterolobii has a well-documented ability to overcome many crop resistance genes that are effective against the more cosmopolitan M. incognita group (MIG) species endemic to the southern United States. In the contine ...

Phytate, the main storage form of phosphorous in soybean meal, is largely indigestible by monogastric animals and, thus, a major concern both for nutrition and for environmental pollution. USDA-N6003LP (Reg. no. GP-435, PI 689999) is a low-phytate (LP) determinate, lodging-resistant early ma ...
