Quorum sensing in soft-rotting Erwinia carotovora
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
activities and stabilities of ahlI (the gene for AHL synthase), pel-1 and peh-1 transcripts. EC153 also causes extensive maceration of celery and Chinese cabbage petioles at 34.5[degree sign]C, which contrasts with limited tissue maceration by Ecc strain Ecc...
Viability, vigor, and field performance of a low phytic acid, high phytase activity soybean line, CAPPA
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
Plants store inorganic phosphate (Pi) in seeds as phytic acid (PA). Phytic acid chelates essential macro and micronutrients in developing seeds forming phytate, which is nutritionally unavailable to monogastric livestock. ...
Molecular characterization of genetic resistance to soybean cyst nematode in soybean line SS97-6946
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Soybean Cyst Nematode (SCN) (Heterodera glycine) is the most damaging pest of soybean and estimated annual yield losses are 1.5 billion dollars in USA. Breeding resistant cultivars is the most efficient means to control ...
Toxicogenomics of Diabrotica virgifera virgifera leconte in response to eCry3.1Ab-expressing transgenic maize
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
In modern agricultural systems, insect pests are constantly facing stresses from natural factors and pest management. Strong selection pressure results in evolution of insect resistance to control substances such as chemical ...
Horticultural crop response to synthetic auxins
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Rising adoption of dicamba-tolerant soybeans increases the potential exposure of grapes to dicamba, where off-target injury may occur via particle or ...
Reducing ergovaline and ergot alkaloid concentrations through fertilizer, herbicide and clipping management
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
rather than chemical NPK reduced ergovaline by at least 124 [mu] kg-1 DM. Another experiment showed the herbicide clethodim reduced ergovaline up to 72%. A third experiment, conducted with Clemson University and the University of Georgia, showed...
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 ...
Nested association mapping and accuracy of predicting genomic breeding value for agronomic and seed composition traits in three interspecific soybean populations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Given the narrow genetic base of soybean, discovering useful traits in exotic germplasm could increase the diversity in the current elite gene pool. However, it is essential to characterize beneficial alleles from the wild ...
Investigation of genes involved in somatic embryogenesis and plant-Agrobacterium interactions through transcriptional profiling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
Plant genetic engineering relies on the ability to transmit and express cloned DNA sequences in plant cells (transformation) as well as the capacity for the cells carrying this DNA to undergo division and differentiation ...
