Vegetation management along roadside and railroad right-of-ways
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Efficient transportation of freight as well as motorists requires effective control of vegetation on right-of-ways (ROW's). Traditionally on railroad ROW's, residual herbicides are applied early in the growing season with ...
Molecular genetic analysis of DRO1 genes in soybean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Under drought conditions, a strong and deep root system provides advantages for exploring and exploiting moisture in deeper soil layers where water is ...
Utilizing radiotracer and genetic approaches to determine the regulation of sucrose export in maize leaves
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] To sustain plant growth, development, and ultimately crop yield, carbohydrates must be transported from their site of synthesis in leaves to distant ...
Photosynthesis and heat tolerance of soybean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The Photochemical Reflectance Index (PRI) is determined from canopy spectral reflectance measurements and can provide important information about ...
Prairie stream ecology : temporal and spatial patterns of macroinvertebrates
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
patches to enable recolonization of streams after disturbance. Leptophlebia konza Burian was thought to be restricted to its type locality of Konza Prairie, Kansas; however, a population was discovered at Hi Lonesome Prairie in Missouri during an extensive...
Iron homeostasis is hierarchically regulated by multiple inputs : evidence for the role of reactive oxygen species and iron-zinc cross talk
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Iron (Fe) is a heavy metal micronutrient vital for all forms of life. In plants, Fe deficiency results in chlorosis and reduced growth, while Fe excess results in lipid peroxidation through the generation of reactive oxygen ...
