Loblolly Pine Karyotype Using FISH and DAPI Positive Banding
(2003)
A loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) karyotype has been developed based on fluorescent insitu hybridization (FISH) using cyto-molecular landmarks including plant telomere repeat, 18S-28S rDNA and 5S rDNA probes and DAPI positive ...
Molecular Pathology of Pitch Canker Disease
(2003)
The inciting agent of pitch canker disease in Pinus species is the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Fusarium circinatum (teleomorph Gibberella circinata). Pitch canker disease has been identified in the southeastern United ...
Evaluation of the Inheritance of Tip Moth Susceptibility Using Pine Hybrids Planted in Southeast Mississippi
(2003)
Nineteen families of susceptible and resistant pine parent species and their interspecific hybrid progenies were quantitatively assessed for Nantucket pine tip moth (Rhyacionia frustrana Comstock) damage in a study in ...
New Model for Moving Forward with Marker-based Selection
(2003)
Increasing the frequency of favorable alleles in populations is the goal of tree breeding based on an additive genetic model. Conceptually, marker based selection (MBS) combined with accelerated breeding offers a more ...
On the Origin of Fusiform Rust Resistance in Loblolly Pine
(2003)
Studies of geographic variation in loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) have shown that seed sources from the western (generally west of the Mississippi River) and the northeastern part of the natural distribution are relatively ...
Development of Differential Screening Panels for Slash Pine-Fusiform Rust Reaction Types
(2003)
Understanding the genetic basis for disease resistance is crucial to ensure a successful breeding and deployment strategy for slash pine. A complementary genetic interaction model has been hypothesized for the pine-fusiform ...
Top Grafting Longleaf x Slash Pine F1 Hybrids on Mature Longleaf and Slash Pine Interstocks
(2003)
Top grafting is used to accelerate the breeding cycle of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L). Scions, collected from seedlings as young as 1 year from seed, are grafted onto mature interstocks of the same or a related species. ...
Efficacy of Breeding for Brown Spot Disease Resistance in Longleaf Pine
(2003)
The study objective was to determine whether selection for brown spot disease (caused by Scirrhia acicola (Dearn.) Siggers) resistance in longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) is beneficial for areas where brown spot is ...
