Burks, Payne (2012-07-16)Sweet sorghum is a highly versatile C4 grass noted for its improved drought tolerance and water use efficiency relative to sugarcane. Sweet sorghum is well suited for ethanol production due to a rapid growth rate, high ...
-
De La Fuente, Gerald (2012-07-16)Maize production is limited agronomically by the availability of water and nutrients during the growing season. Of these two limiting factors, water availability is predicted to increase in importance as climate change ...
-
Liang, Shuyin (2016-08-04)Roses (Rosa × hybrida) have been one of the most popular decorations for entertainment and ceremonies for the past 5,000 years, and have been used in the fragrance, medicinal, and food industry. Heat stress is one of the ...

Characterization of Genetic Diversity and Linkage Disequilibrium of ZmLOX4 and ZmLOX5 Loci in Maize De La Fuente, Gerald N.; Murray, Seth C.; Isakeit, Thomas; Park, Yong-Soon; Yan, Yuanxin; Warburton, Marilyn L.; Kolomiets, Michael V.; Vendramin, Giovanni G. (PloS One, 2013)
-
Nakasagga, Shakirah (2021-07-26)There is need to sustainably meet the growing food demand of a predicted population of 9 billion by 2050. Perennial grain crops present an opportunity for increased genetic and ecosystem diversity, yields and other ecological ...

Hartmann, Timothy Patrick (2013-11-20)Fifteen peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] horticultural and fruit quality traits were evaluated for two years at Fowler, CA and one year at College Station, TX to estimate heritability and phenotypic correlations. Seedlings ...
-
Pfeiffer, Brian Kevin (2017-12-04)Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is an important cereal crop for the semiarid regions of the world. The improvement of sorghum grain production and sorghum grain quality are essential for the future of the crop. This ...
-
Mayfield, Kerry Lucas (2012-07-16)Aflatoxins are potent carcinogens produced by the fungus Aspergillus flavus Link:Fr and are a significant preharvest problem in maize production in Texas, the southern US, and subtropical climates. Several sources of maize ...
-
Pruter, Luke Steven (2019-11-21)Ear injury principally caused by Helicoverpa zea (Boddie) and Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is potentially linked to Aspergillus flavus (Link) in maize. Preharvest infection of maize kernels ...
-
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 ...
-
Adak, Alper (2022-04-05)Tropical maize germplasm holds a wealth of diversity that could be used for crop improvement. Phenomic and genomic tools can help characterize phenotypes associated with both crop improvement as demonstrated here. Phenomics ...
-
Felderhoff, Terry (2012-10-19)Recent initiatives for biofuel production have increased research and development of sweet sorghum. Currently, the initial major limitation to integrating sweet sorghum into existing production systems is the lack of sweet ...
-
Heraganahally Kapanigowda, Mohankumar (2012-07-16)There is an increasing need to improve crop water-use efficiency (WUE) (ratio of whole-plant biomass to cumulative transpiration) due to decreased water availability and increased food and energy demands throughout the ...
-
Washburn, Jacob (2012-10-19)A growing world population drives an ever-increasing need for food and energy. These challenges, along with depletion of water and fossil fuel resources, call for improvements in crop production systems and the cultivars ...
-
Whitmire, David Kyle (2012-10-19)The federally mandated 36 billion gallons a year production goal for "advanced biofuels" by 2022 has created a demand for lignocellulosic feedstocks that are inexpensive to produce. The current lack of market development ...
