  • Breeding an open pollinated broccoli for organic production systems using participatory methods

    Creator:
    McKenzie, Laurie R.
    Abstract:
    Organic agriculture is an important and growing sector of U.S. and world food production. Consumers are increasingly aware of and interested in the production practices and impacts associated with agriculture and as such, are showing a preference for sustainably produced, raised, and harvested foods. In order to continue to meet...

  • Breeding Snap Beans for Organic Agriculture: Genomic Shifts under Different Agricultural Management Systems

    Creator:
    King, Ryan M.
    Abstract:
    Although the concept of breeding crops for organic agricultural systems has been around for decades, few studies have been reported for vegetable crops to quantify and compare how conventional and organic systems differ in their selection pressures on genotypes advancing through the breeding cycle; especially research utilizing modern sequencing capabilities....

  • Breeding Snap Beans for Organic Agriculture: Quantification and Application of Key Traits

    Creator:
    Park, Hayley E.
    Abstract:
    Improving crop cultivars for use on organic farms is pertinent, as current elite germplasm is less resilient within the more variable context of organic farm environments. Although a growing number of studies have focused on organic plant breeding in cereal crops, very few have focused on vegetable crops, especially those...

  • Advancing Naked Barley: Malting Protocol Manipulation and Embryo Retention Insights

    Creator:
    Vallejos, Cristiana L.
    Abstract:
    Naked (hull-less) barley has historically been grown for food, but interest in, and breeding efforts for, its use in malting and brewing have increased due to the potential benefits: reduced off-flavors, reduced spent grain, and higher malt extract. These benefits are offset by limiting factors such as high b-glucan and...

  • 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,...
