The Differential Reaction Of Strains Within A Variety Of Wheat To Physiologic Forms Of Puccinia Graminis Tritici, T. A. Kiesselbach, George L. Peltier
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Black stem rust of wheat (Puccinia graminis tritici (Pers.) Erikss. & Henn.), which occurs in Nebraska and thruout most of the wheat producing regions of the world, is of a composite nature, in that it consists of a number of physiologic forms which can be determined by their action on different varieties of Triticum species, as shown by Stakman and Levine. The ordinary commercial variety of wheat may likewise be regarded as a mixture, in that it consists of numerous strains, which differ in some more or less important characteristics, as has been frequently indicated in the literature concerning …

Ec26-129 Profitable Wheawt Production, P.H. Stewart, D.L. Gross
University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension: Historical Materials
More profitable wheat production, rather than greater total production in Nebraska, is the object of this circular. The grower who has the largest acreage of wheat does not necessarily make the greatest profit. High yields per acre usually means a lower cost and a great profit per bushel. Wheat of high quality brings additional profits. High yield and quality are usually the combined result of good seed, disease prevention, crop rotations, a well-prepared seed bed, the proper time of seeding, and reasonable care in harvesting, threshing and storing.
