  • Specificity of quantitatively expressed host resistance to Mycosphaerella graminicola

    Creator:
    Krenz, Jennifer E.
    Abstract:
    The specificity of quantitative host resistance to plant disease has long been a controversial issue. We examined interactions between wheat (Triticum aestivum) and Mycosphaerella graminicola, causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch, to determine whether specific interactions occur between host and pathogen genotypes that could be involved in eroding quantitatively expressed...

  • Effects of host resistance on Mycosphaerella graminicola populations

    Creator:
    Cowger, Christina
    Abstract:
    Mycosphaerella graminicola (anamorph Septoria tritici) causes Septoria tritici blotch, a globally important disease of winter wheat. Resistance and pathogenicity generally vary quantitatively. The pathogen reproduces both sexually and asexually, and the pathogen population is highly genetically variable. Several unresolved questions about the epidemiology of this pathosystem are addressed by this...

  • Laminar natural convection within long vertical uniformly heated parallel-plate channels and circular tubes

    Creator:
    Vorayos, Nat
    Abstract:
    The problem of simple mathematical models of laminar natural convective flow within a long vertical parallel-plate channels and circular tubes kept at uniformly heated walls is revisited to seek a clear physical understanding of heat transfer mechanisms. A series solution method to analyze the fully developed flow and an integral...
