Development and use of molecular tools in Fragaria

Creator:: Njuguna, Wambui
Abstract:: This dissertation describes the application and development of molecular tools that have great potential for use in studying variation in strawberry germplasm. The first study evaluated 91 microsatellite (simple sequence repeat, SSR) markers for transferability in 22 Fragaria species and their utility in fingerprinting octoploid strawberries. Out of the transferable...

Partial purification and characterization of a zeatin Cis-trans isomerase from Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Creator:: Bassil, Nahla V.
Abstract:: Conversion of exogenous cis-zeatin to trans-zeatin in immature seeds of Phaseolus vulgaris L. led to the isolation of a cis-trans isomerase from the endosperm. The enzyme was purified over 2000-fold by chromatography on a series of FPLC (anion exchange, gel filtration, and hydrophobic interaction) and Concanavalin A columns. Non-enzymatic isomerization...

Statistical Methods for Tissue Culture Medium Optimization and A Multiplexed Fingerprinting Set for Hazelnuts

Creator:: Akin, Melekşen
Abstract:: Hazelnut is one of the most important nuts in worldwide production and the European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) is the most economically important of the 11 recognized hazelnut species. Development of new cultivars is continuous, with emphasis on better nut quality, high yield and disease resistance. Hazelnuts are highly heterozygous,...

Evaluation of genetic diversity in wild populations of black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.)

Creator:: Dossett, Michael
Abstract:: In recent years, there has been renewed interest in black raspberry (Rubus occidentalis L.) breeding. This has been spurred, in part, by an increase in black raspberry consumption due to studies that have shown them to be particularly high in anthocyanin content indicating high levels of antioxidants. Present cultivars are...

A microscopic and phenological study of pollen development and bloom in selected cultivars of hazelnut (Corylus avellana)

Creator:: Tiyayon, Chantalak
Abstract:: Pollen development is an important process in male flower development, the timing of which may be correlated with time of pollen shed in hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). Early to very late blooming cultivars were identified and the relationship of microsporogenesis and microgametogenesis, and time of pollen shed were studied in...

Simple sequence repeat marker development and use in European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.)

Creator:: Gürcan, Kahraman
Abstract:: New highly polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for European hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.). were developed from several sources. The markers were characterized, and segregation in a mapping population allowed to assign them to linkage groups. Their transferability across genera and species in the Betulaceae family was investigated. SSR markers...

Breeding and genetics of lilacs and hardy hibiscus

Creator:: Lattier, Jason D.
Abstract:: Lilacs are a group of ornamental trees and shrubs in the Oleaceae family consisting of 22 to 30 species. There are six series within genus Syringa: Pubescentes, Villosae, Ligustrae, Ligustrina, Pinnatifoliae, and Syringa. Fertility and cross-compatibility among cultivars, species, and series have yet to be formally investigated. Over three years,...

Quantitative Trait Loci and Genome Wide Association Study for Resistance to White Mold in Common (Snap) Bean.

Creator:: Arkwazee, Haidar A.
Abstract:: This is a Ph.D. dissertation for a study conducted at OSU/Horticulture. The main objective of this study was dissecting the genetic background for white mold resistance in common (snap) bean. Tow main approaches were followed to achieve the goal. The first approach was using the classical quantitative trait loci (QTL)...

Eastern filbert blight in hazelnut (Corylus avellana): identification of new resistance sources and high resolution genetic and physical mapping of a resistance gene

Creator:: Sathuvalli, Vidyasagar R.
Abstract:: European hazelnut, Corylus avellana L., is the only economically important nut crop in the family Betulaceae. One of the threats to the hazelnut industry in the Pacific Northwest is the fungal disease eastern filbert blight (EFB) caused by the pyrenomycete Anisogramma anomala. Host genetic resistance to EFB identified in the...

Lamb Wave Mode Decomposition and Its Applications in Structural Health Monitoring

Creator:: Zoubi, Ahmad Bassil
Abstract:: Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems perform automated non-destructive damage detection and characterization for a variety of large structures including civil structures such as bridges and aerospace structures such as aircrafts and space vehicles. The goals of SHM include preventing catastrophic structural failures, increasing reliability, reducing maintenance costs, and increasing the...
