Effect of cultivation practices on soil physical properties and temporal shade on photosynthesis of creeping bentgrass used for golf greens
(2020-07)
Organic matter accumulation and soil compaction is a major concern for turfgrass managers, causing an increase in the softness of the surface, decreased water infiltration rate, and increased surface water retention. The ...
Genetic and quantitative trait loci mapping in African bermudagrass and characterization of winter survivability and drought response in turf-type bermudagrass
(2020-12)
African bermudagrass (Cynodon transvaalensis Burtt-Davy) is frequently used to cross with common bermudagrass (C. dactylon Pers.) in the creation of F1 hybrid cultivars that most widely used in the worldwide turf industry. ...
Characterizing the cold hardiness and drought response of newly developed bermudagrass genotypes
(2020-07)
Bermudagrasses are often subjected to various abiotic stresses affecting their aesthetic quality, and functionality. Abiotic stresses, such as drought, and freezing are some of the common detrimental factors for bermudagrass ...
Study of winter wheat growth and development in Oklahoma using a hierarchical Bayesian approach
(2021-07)
In this dissertation, we discussed the underlying mechanisms behind growth and yield patterns in Oklahoma wheat and simultaneously introduced a unique approach to data analysis in crop science. First, the relationships ...
Influence of cover crops and their management on post-incorporation N2O emissions and nitrogen transfer to recipient crop
(2020-12)
Including cover crops in production systems for improving soil health and nutrient cycling has gained interest in recent years. Although cover crops may provide many agronomic and environmental benefits, they may also ...
Shriveled seed (svd), a P1B-type HMA5 transporter ATPase, is involved in copper detoxification to control sorghum growth and development
(2020-12)
The world population is projected to reach 9.6 billion by 2050, putting strong pressure on food security and agricultural productivity. Understanding plant developmental programs will aid in improving productivity by ...
Advanced agronomic management practices for soybean production systems in Oklahoma
(2022-05)
Advanced agronomic management strategies for soybean (Glycine max) systems are gaining interest throughout the soybean growing regions of Oklahoma. With current increases in input prices and the emphasis on agricultural ...
Breeding and genetic characterization of forage bermudagrass for the transition zone of the United States
(2020-05)
Bermudagrass is a robust forage option for livestock producers as both a grazed and stockpiled herbage. Breeding efforts focused on improved cold tolerance have expanded the geographic range of bermudagrass into the ...
