Integrating cover crops into crop rotations in upstate Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
"There is an increasing emphasis on management strategies such as reduced tillage, use of cover crops, and implementation of conservation practices (i.e. terraces, no-till, and cropping systems) in Missouri cropping systems. By combining best...
Interactions between cover crops, herbicides and weeds in soybean production systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
. An identical field experiment was conducted in 2016 in Arkansas, Indiana, Missouri and Wisconsin and repeated in Arkansas, Indiana, Mississippi and Missouri in 2017 to evaluate the most effective herbicide treatments for spring termination of regionally...
Recommendations for tree establishment in tall fescue-based silvopasture
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Silvopasture offers Midwest landowners the opportunity to plant trees in their pastures without significant loss of forage production. However, much of the pasture in the Midwest is dominated by tall fescue (Schedonorus ...
Overseeding annual ryegrass and cereal rye into soybean for winter forage and as a cover crop for weed control and soil conservation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
studied how to integrate these forages in a soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]-winter pasture-corn (Zea mays L.) rotation. An experiment was conducted where each of these forage species was overseeded at different stages of soybean development, and corn...
Glyphosate resistance : pollen movement within a common ragweed (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) population and herbicide release from common waterhemp (Amaranthus rudis sauer) plants
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Common ragweed and Common waterhemp are native, summer annual weeds distributed widely throughout the United States. Both weed species have developed resistance to the broad-spectrum herbicide glyphosate. Research was ...
Grapevine trunk disease in Missouri vineyards : prevalence and causality of fungal species by cultivar
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
's Postulates were evaluated in a greenhouse by inoculating shoots of Vitis interspecific hybrid cultivar Vignoles, the most widely planted white grape cultivar in Missouri. Shoots were inoculated and placed in a greenhouse for ten days. All shoots inoculated...
Consequences of plant water limitation for aphids, their natural enemies, and insect communities
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Climate change is causing an increase in drought events around the world. Water limitation affects the quality and quantity of plant resources for herbivorous insects, resulting...
The semiaquatic heteroptera (Gerromorpha) of Thailand : faunistics, biogeography and phylogeography
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Semiaquatic heteropterans (Gerromorpha) were collected from mountain streams and waterfalls and lowland ponds adjacent to the mountains were collected from 2002 to 2006. One hundred fifty-eight species representing 31 ...
Novel approaches in macroinvertebrate biomonitoring
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
are influenced by seasonal variability. Two separate studies are presented to address aspects of biological monitoring that are seldom studied. The first study focused on evaluation of Grass Riparian Filter Strip effectiveness in north central Missouri. Streams...
Genetic architecture and marker-assisted breeding for salt tolerance in soybean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
Salinity is one of the major abiotic stresses that inhibits plant growth and causes seed yield loss in soybean. Although a major gene for salt tolerance on chromosome (Chr.) 3 was mapped, cloned and characterized, it does ...
