The development and analysis of sequence-based DNA markers in sunflower for DNA fingerprinting and candidate gene analysis

Creator:: Hongtrakul, Vipa
Abstract:: Molecular DNA markers have become widely used in all areas of genetic research. The objectives of this thesis were to develop polymorphic markers in sunflower and utilize the markers for genetic and candidate gene analyses. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers were used to estimate genetic similarities and assess the...

Production of haploid plants in selected winter wheat genotypes through anther culture and intergeneric crosses with maize

Creator:: Mendoza, Maria Graciela
Abstract:: A higher level of efficiency in the production of doubled-haploids must be achieved if this procedure is to be beneficial in plant improvement. Of equal importance is the development of protocols, which are not genotypic specific and result in progeny that represent a random sample of gametes from the parental...

Farmer perspectives on the transition to organic agriculture : an Oregon study of farmer motivations and barriers

Creator:: Lloyd, Deanna M.
Abstract:: In the midst of double-digit growth in market demand for organic products, there is a lag in the growth of certified organic production in the United States. This thesis investigated the motivations and barriers farmers face when making the transition to organic agriculture. Three distinct organic farmer typologies were identified:...

Estimates of genetic variability resulting from single, top, and double cross populations in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum)

Creator:: Abdennadher, Mourad
Abstract:: The success of a plant breeding program depends upon the availability of useable genetic diversity. Such diversity may be enhanced depending on the type of hybridization strategy employed. Segregating progenies resulting from F2 populations, a double cross, and a top cross were compared for the amount of useable genetic diversity...

Expression and Function of Populus Homologs to TERMINAL FLOWER 1 Genes: Roles in Onset of Flowering and Shoot Phenology

Creator:: Mohamed, Rozi
Abstract:: We isolated and characterized the expression of two genes from Populus trichocarpa that are homologous to the TERMINAL FLOWER 1 (TFL1) gene from the model annual plant Arabidopsis. In Arabidopsis, overexpression of the TFL1 gene extends the vegetative growth phase, and the homozygous mutant tfl1 allele causes early flowering and...

DNA fingerprinting and genome mapping in meadowfoam

Creator:: Katengam, Sureeporn
Abstract:: Marker information in the new oilseed crop, meadowfoam, is limited. Molecular markers to facilitate meadowfoam breeding and cultivar improvement are not available. The knowledge of genetic relationships among recent germplasm is not known. The objectives of this study were (i) to gain an understanding of genetic diversity and relationship patterns...

Investigating the Quality Dynamics of American Aroma Hops Intended for Dry-Hopping Beer

Creator:: Lafontaine, Scott R.
Abstract:: Historically, brewers have used dry-hopping (a cold extraction of nonvolatile and volatile chemicals from hops into fermenting or finished beer) to increase the microbial stability and shelf life of their beer. As hoppy beer styles have gained in popularity over the last decade (2007-2017), the objective of dry-hopping has turned...

Molecular mechanisms underlying the high oleic acid phenotype in sunflower

Creator:: Schuppert, Gunnar Felix
Abstract:: Wildtype sunflower typically produces 12-24% oleic acid (18:1) and 70-82% linoleic acid (18:2). High-oleic sunflower, by contrast, produces up to 80-94% oleic acid. The monounsaturated oleic acid has a greater oxidative stability than the polyunsaturated linoleic acid, predominant in wildtype sunflower, and has greater nutritional benefits than polyunsaturated and saturated...

Gluten protein polymeric composition and allelic variation as related to bread-making quality in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var. durum)

Creator:: Ammar, Karim
Abstract:: Attempts to develop dual-purpose durum wheat cultivars for both pasta and bread-making have been unsuccessful. To better understand this limitation, thirty durum genotypes, selected based on their diverse geographical origin, and five bread wheat cultivars were compared as to their flour mixing properties, dough physical characteristics and baking performance. The...
