Creator:: Parker, Thomas B.
Abstract:: Hop downy mildew is a devastating disease affecting hop requiring expensive fungicide applications throughout the growing season. Plant resistance is highly desirable and theorized as being decidedly quantitative with dominance and epistasis involved in resistance. An association mapping approach using a mixed-model was used to identify AFLP markers associated with...

Creator:: McCoy, Serena B.
Abstract:: An organisms' genotype may not be reflected in its phenotype. For example, epistasis - the interaction of non-allelic genes can cause deviations from expected phenotypic ratios. The epistatic interaction between the hooded (Kap) and short-awned (lks2) loci in barley (Hordeum vulgare) precludes the localization of the Kap locus, based on...

Creator:: Howe, Dana Kathryn
Abstract:: In forest trees from temperate and boreal regions, cold acclimation is an important adaptive trait that involves changes in gene expression and physiology. Genecological, quantitative genetic, and QTL studies have been used to study the genetics of cold acclimation in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco), but the genes responsible for...

Creator:: Quincke, Martin C.
Abstract:: Cephalosporium stripe (Cephalosporium gramineum) is an important disease limiting adoption of conservation tillage practices in the Pacific Northwest. The disease can cause severe loss of grain yield and quality in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Modified cultural practices can reduce disease incidence, but are not always dependable because of variation...

Creator:: Haggard, Jack Erron
Abstract:: White mold, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary, results in severe losses in the production of common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris, especially snap bean varieties. Advanced backcross QTL analysis was used to identify quantitative trait loci for resistance to white mold in an interspecific cross of P. vulgaris and P....

Creator:: Gilmore, Barbara S.
Abstract:: White mold, caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) De Bary, is a destructive yield-limiting disease of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.). Genetic resistance to this pathogen is limited in common bean. Identification of high levels of partial physiological resistance in a genetically cross compatible species, Phaseolus coccineus, is advisable. The objectives...
