Wu, Wenzhuo (2019-07-10)Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) play an important role in agricultural research because they facilitate high-throughput phenotyping (HTP). Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is the world’s leading natural textile fiber crop, and ...
-
Ekinci, Ozge (2022-12-15)Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is a highly profitable crop due to its high dietary protein content and fiber, critical minerals, and excellent capability to fix atmospheric nitrogen, especially in low-cost food production ...
-
Page, Barret Baxter (2018-05-22)Cotton fleahopper (CFH) (Pseudatomoscelis seriatus) is an early season pest of upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum, L). Feeding damage results in abscission of young floral buds (squares), and consequently a delay in maturation ...
-
Kothari, Neha (2012-10-19)The temporal system of fruiting on the cotton plant lends itself to bolls at different fruiting sites developing under different environmental conditions and with varied source-sink relationships. To investigate this, ...
-
Osorio Marin, Juliana 1982- (2012-11-12)The development of cottons with improved fiber quality has been a major objective in breeding programs around the world. Breeders have focused their attention on improving fiber strength and length, and have generally not ...
-
Hoffmann, Leo (2012-10-19)In 2007, U.S. Congress created the "Energy Independence and Security Act" with primary goals focused on increasing the knowledge in production of renewable fuels, increasing the percentages of renewable fuels in the ...
-
Bhangu, Drutdaman Singh (2016-08-04)Conventional breeding techniques have been minimally successful in introgressing novel fiber quality traits of Gossypium barbadense L. into elite G. hirsutum L. cultivars. The Cotton Improvement Lab at Texas A&M AgriLife ...
-
Liu, Yun Hua (2014-07-11)Cotton (Gossypium spp.) is a leading textile crop in the world, generating an annual economic benefit of over hundred billion USD. However, few genes controlling fiber quality and yield traits have been cloned and characterized ...
-
Aci, Murat (2018-08-07)Soybean is one of the key crops necessary to meet the food requirement of the increasing global population. However, in order to meet this need, the quality and quantity of soybean yield must be greatly enhanced. Soybean ...
-
Chou, Nan-Yen (2017-05-10)The study relates to a hybrid rice seed production method to efficiently incorporate new herbicide tolerance into a systems using existing elite three-line hybrid rice parental lines, a WACMS female line, a maintainer line, ...
-
Wilkerson, Dustin G (2016-12-08)In cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), plant breeders seek means to reduce susceptibility to drought conditions through the incorporation of drought tolerance traits from exotic sources. A group of converted race stocks was ...
-
Terhune, Austin Cates (2014-04-30)Cotton plant breeders need well-defined phenotypic parameters by which they can select drought tolerant lines as well as correlate phenotypes to allelic polymorphisms in the cotton genome. Soil-moisture availability is ...
-
Camara Siqueira Da Cunha, Janaina (2022-01-11)This dissertation analyzed plant-associated fungal effects on two insect pests of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), the boll weevil (Anthonomus grandis grandis) and cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii), as well as on the predatory ...
-
Harvey, Lorin Michael (2016-04-26)Cotton is the world’s leading natural textile fiber and oilseed crop, with a global economic impact of over $600 billion. However, few QTLs have been identified and linked with yield traits. In this study, a large number ...
-
Kennedy, Haley Danielle (2018-07-27)A dichotomy exists in the different aspects of cotton production and utilization. Lint yield is the most important factor for producers aiming to maximize profit while spinning mills are more concerned with the fiber quality ...
-
Meeks, Meghyn (2010-12-02)We wanted to develop rapid and cost-effective drought tolerance screening methods for mass amounts of germplasm. In 2009 and 2010, we evaluated sixty-two maize inbred lines and their hybrid testcross progeny using seedling ...
-
Siegfried, Jeffrey Alan (2021-08-18)Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) allow collection of imagery with unprecedented temporal, spatial, and spectral resolutions suitable for specialized purposes. Crop yield data is critical both for precision agriculture management ...
-
Seitz, Paige; Strong, Robert; Hague, Steve (2023-03-25)Ensuring sustainable production patterns is one of the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals. Production of cotton requires some of the most intensive uses of pesticides and water resources of any major row crop in the ...
