Molecular tools, coupled with unique germplasm stocks and rigorous phenotyping, are
useful for developing a better understanding of qualitative and quantitative disease resistance
genes in plants. The identification of molecular markers linked to all types of resistance
genes provides opportunities for implementing a range of resistance breeding strategies,
ranging from...
This manual is designed to serve as a resource for those who organize and conduct training programs in biosolids management. It describes the process of organizing and conducting effective training sessions as well as the technical topics that should be covered.
The usefulness of preplant nitrogen (N) in establishing
alfalfa in colder production areas has not been
well characterized. This study was conducted to determine
the effect of preplant N and soil temperature on
yield, percent N derived from biological nitrogen fixation
(PBNF), and shoot N concentration in alfalfa (Medicago
sativa...
