Effect of irrigation on fertilizer nitrogen requirement, economic returns, and water availability in a corn-soybean rotation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
application. Two irrigation experiments were conducted at University of Missouri Greenley Research Center near Novelty, MO from 2015 to 2018. In each experiment, three irrigation treatments: sprinkler irrigation, subsurface drip irrigation, and no...
Influence of herbicides application on weed and tall fescue management and grazing distribution in Missouri pastures
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
One weed that is of concern in Missouri pastures that can be detrimental is Northern dewberry (Rubus flagellaris Willd.). This weed can be detrimental due its production of spines which can injure grazing animals and also humans. Results from our...
Top-soil root architecture characteristics of obsolete and modern soybean cultivars and shoot and seed nutrient contents
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI--COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Soybean (Glycine max Merr.) is one of the most important cash crops worldwide. It is widely used to produce oil and protein for food and animal feed. Soybean grain...
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...
Identification and management of glyphosate-resistant annual bluegrass (Poa annua L.)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
bluegrass (hereafter referred to as CCMO1) in Columbia, Missouri survived an application of glyphosate following more than 10 years of continuous applications. Research was conducted in vitro to identify the extent of glyphosate-resistance in CCMO1...
Remobilization of leaf nitrogen in stockpiled tall fescue
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
Missouri's beef industry is supported by more than five million hectares of pasture containing the grass tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum). Stockpiled (accumulated autumn growth used for winter grazing) tall fescue leaf macronutrients decrease...
Exploring the symbiotic relationship of plants and microbes by mass spectrometry imaging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Current practices in agriculture make use of chemical inputs including nitrogen fertilizers to provide high crop yields since nitrogen is often the limiting nutrient in field soil. However, nitrogen fertilizer use has negative impacts; such as due...
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 ...
