Adaptation, biology, and control of sericea lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), an invasive species
(2006-07)
Scope and Methods of Study: Chapter I: An experiment was conducted to assess the genetic relationship of 17 accessions of sericea lespedeza using DNA amplification fingerprinting (DAF). Chapter II: Field experiments were ...
Chemical indicators of pecan germplasm yield potential and irregular bearing
(2006-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The objectives of the study are (1) to determine if return bloom is inhibited proportionally to mature cluster size, (2) to determine if cultivars with strong alternate bearing tendencies produce ...
Spectral reflectance indices as a selection criterion for yield improvement in wheat
(2005-07)
Scope and Methods of Study: Yield in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a complex trait and influenced by many environmental factors, and yield improvement is a daunting task for wheat breeders. Spectral reflectance indices ...
Spectral reflectance indices for estimating yield and water content in spring wheat genotypes under well irrigated, water stress, and high temperature conditions
(2009-07)
Scope and Method of Study: Alternative methods for selecting, detecting, and identifying higher yielding genotypes in wheat breading programs are important for obtaining major genetic gains. The water indices can be used ...
