(University of Missouri--Columbia, 1913)
A complete list of the rusts of Boone County has not been published. In the year 1889 Dr. B.T. Galloway of the U. S. Department of Agriculture, published a preliminary list of the parasitic fungi of Missouri. The specimens ...
Identification and characterization of glyphosate-resistant common ragweed
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
A revolution in production agriculture has occurred over the past decade; the development and use of herbicide-resistant crops. Glyphosate is an effective, broad spectrum and offers flexible application timing with minimal ...
Allelopathic effects and removal of overseeded ryegrass on bermudagrass
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
practices for spring removal of intermediate (Lolium multiforum Lam. x Lolium perenne L.) and perennial ryegrass by cultural practices and herbicide applications. Cultural practices (mowing and fertility) reduced intermediate ryegrass stand by 10% when...
Herbicide resistant weeds in Missouri : sources and solutions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Herbicide resistant weeds continue to invade new territories each year. Two studies were designed to identify both the spread and the current status of herbicide resistant weeds in Missouri. In 2016 and 2017, 98 separate ...
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. ...
Competition and management of volunteer corn (Zea Mays L.) in corn
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
(10, 20, and 40 cm) in glufosinate-resistant or imidazolinone-tolerant hybrids, respectively. Research was conducted during 2008, 2009, and 2010 at multiple locations throughout central and northeast Missouri. Harvest inefficiencies resulted in kernels...
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 ...
The sublethal effects of ecdysone agonists on the attractiveness, responsiveness, fertility and fecundity of oriental fruit moth, a comparative examination with codling moth on larval feeding damage
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
were observed. Differences were also detected in the internal fruit damage between the two moth species....
Cover crop and rotation intensity effects on soil health and yield in corn-soybean cropping systems
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
stable aggregates, soil moisture, total organic carbon, active carbon, potentially mineralizable nitrogen (PMN), and soil microbial community composition via a phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis were measured in 2017 and 2018 in Columbia, MO under no...
Identification, characterization, and management of glyphosate-resistant waterhemp (Amaranthus rudis sauer.) in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The possibility of in waterhemp has been of concern to Midwest corn and soybean producers due to a heavy dependence on glyphosate as a weed control tool and the increased incidence and problematic nature of waterhemp in ...
Integrated management of the invasive weed, cut-leaved teasel (Dipsacus laciniatus L.) along a Missouri highways
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
Cut-leaved leaved teasel is an invasive, exotic, and noxious weed in Missouri. Biennial plant infest roadsides and undisturbed areas. Studies regarding seed biology, detection, and control measures were conducted to improve ...
Genotype, environment and GE interaction effect on soybean oil composition
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Changing the content of the five major soy-oil fatty acids is important to enhance food, fuel and other applications of soybean oil. In addition to genetic effects, the growth environment can significantly affect oil ...
The effect of environment on seed composition of tofu and natto soybean cultivars
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
by varying the planting date and by planting at 7 to 10 locations in four soybean-producing regions in Missouri. The carboydrates sucrose, raffinose, and stachyose were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and protein and oil were...
Management alternatives for urea use in corn and wheat production
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Traditionally, urea has been incorporated to avoid losses of N by ammonia volatilization. However, this option is not available when topdressing wheat. The objective of this project is to evaluate several strategies designed ...
Reducing ergovaline and ergot alkaloid concentrations through fertilizer, herbicide and clipping management
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Animals grazing tall fescue grass (Lolium arundinaceum) infected with Neotyphodium coenophialum consume the toxins ergovaline and other ergot alkaloids. This research included a series of experiments with two overall objectives: 1) to explore...
Environmental and human impacts on off-target movement of dicamba
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
growth was reduced 10 to 54% and visual injury ranged from 15 to 47% at 21 DAT. Average soybean yield was significantly reduced by dicamba concentrations as low as 25 ppm and influenced by the developmental stage (V3 and R1) at the timing of dicamba...
Predator-prey interactions involving the soybean aphid (Hemiptera: Aphididae) in Missouri
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The recently introduced soybean aphid, Aphis glycines Matsumura, is found in all soybean growing areas within Missouri. Despite soybean aphid's widespread distribution, it has reached economic threshold in few soybean ...
Environmental regulation of the larval diapause of the southwestern corn borer, Diatraea grandiosella Dyar (Lepidoptera : pyralidae)
