Spatial Distributions Of Rhizoctonia Species In Soybean Fields Undergoing Annual Rotations With Rice, Terry Neil Spurlock Aug 2013

Spatial Distributions Of Rhizoctonia Species In Soybean Fields Undergoing Annual Rotations With Rice, Terry Neil Spurlock

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Aerial blight is caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG1-IA. This pathogen also causes sheath blight of rice. In Arkansas, many soybean and rice fields undergo an annual rotation of these two crops which facilitates a continuous source of inoculum from one year to the next. Aerial blight is a two stage disease in that R. solani AG1-IA colonizes the plant during the early vegetative growth stages and then aerial blight develops after the soybean canopy closes in the later reproductive stages of development. As a result of the upper portion of the canopy often being asymptomatic, significant yield loss can occur …

High Yield Soybean Management: Planting Practices, Nutrient Supply, And Growth Modification, Evan Sonderegger Aug 2013

High Yield Soybean Management: Planting Practices, Nutrient Supply, And Growth Modification, Evan Sonderegger

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Dissertations, Theses, and Student Research

Growers are constantly seeking ways to improve yield in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.]. There has been much interest in the use of selected alternative practices to maximize soybean yield. These practices include planting soybean at higher than recommended seeding rates, planting soybean in narrow rows, breaking apical dominance to induce branching, application of strobilurin fungicides prophylactically to minimize disease and extend the seed filling period, the use of N fertilizer both in furrow and foliar applied, and the use of seed treatments to promote early stand establishment and health. Field studies were conducted at the University of Nebraska …

Quantitative Trait Locus Analysis Of Saturated Fatty Acids In A Population Of Recombinant Inbred Lines Of Soybean, Xianzhi Wang, Guo-Liang Jiang, Marci Green, Roy A. Scott, D. L. Hyten, P. B. Cregan Jan 2012

Quantitative Trait Locus Analysis Of Saturated Fatty Acids In A Population Of Recombinant Inbred Lines Of Soybean, Xianzhi Wang, Guo-Liang Jiang, Marci Green, Roy A. Scott, D. L. Hyten, P. B. Cregan

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is an important crop which contributes approximately 58% of the world’s oilseed production. Palmitic and stearic acids are the two main saturated fatty acids in soybean oil. Different levels of saturated fatty acids are desired depending on the uses of the soybean oil. Vegetable oil low in saturated fatty acids is preferred for human consumption, while for industrial applications, soybean oil with higher levels of saturated fatty acids is more suitable. The objectives of this study were to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) for saturated fatty acids, analyze the genetic effects of single QTL …

Mutational Analysis Of The Major Soybean Uref Paralogue Involved In Urease Activation, Joe C. Polacco, D. L. Hyten, Mônica Medeiros-Silva, David A. Sleper, Kristin D. Bilyeu Jan 2011

Mutational Analysis Of The Major Soybean Uref Paralogue Involved In Urease Activation, Joe C. Polacco, D. L. Hyten, Mônica Medeiros-Silva, David A. Sleper, Kristin D. Bilyeu

Department of Agronomy and Horticulture: Faculty Publications

The soybean genome duplicated ~14 and 45 million years ago and has many paralogous genes, including those in urease activation (emplacement of Ni and CO2 in the active site). Activation requires the UreD and UreF proteins, each encoded by two paralogues. UreG, a third essential activation protein, is encoded by the single-copy Eu3, and eu3 mutants lack activity of both urease isozymes. eu2 has the same urease-negative phenotype, consistent with Eu2 being a single-copy gene, possibly encoding a Ni carrier. Unexpectedly, two eu2 alleles co-segregated with missense mutations in the chromosome 2 UreF paralogue (Ch02UreF), suggesting …

Comparison Of Instrumental Methods For Measuring Seed Hardness Of Food-Grade Soybean, Mioko Tamura, Bo Zhang, Joyce Berger-Doyle, Pengyin Chen Jan 2007

Comparison Of Instrumental Methods For Measuring Seed Hardness Of Food-Grade Soybean, Mioko Tamura, Bo Zhang, Joyce Berger-Doyle, Pengyin Chen

Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences

Seed hardness is an important factor in determining soybean suitability for natto production. There is no established methodology for testing seed texture of soybeans. The objective of this study was to develop an efficient method by examining different instruments and seed parameters that could be potentially used for testing soybean seed hardness. Five food-grade soybean genotypes with different seed sizes were used to determine seed hardness and water-absorption capacity. Water absorption capacity was expressed by swell ratios for seed weight, seed dimension, and volume of water changes before and after soaking. Seed hardness test was conducted by a one-bite method …

Effects Of Heating On Hydrophobicity, Viscosity, And Gelling Properties Of Soy Products, Robert S. Walnofer, Navam S. Hettiarachchy, Ronny Horax Jan 2005

Effects Of Heating On Hydrophobicity, Viscosity, And Gelling Properties Of Soy Products, Robert S. Walnofer, Navam S. Hettiarachchy, Ronny Horax

Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences

The co-product of soybean after oil extraction is the meal, which is rich in protein. From this meal, protein concentrate and protein isolate are prepared and are commercially available as functional ingredients. Thermal treatment is the most common step applied to foods during processing. Changes in structural and functional properties can be affected by thermal or chemical treatments. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of heat on surface hydrophobicity, gelling properties, and viscosity of soy meal (SM), soy protein concentrate (SPC), and soy protein isolate (SPI). The soy products were subjected to heat at varying temperatures …

Bradyrhizobium Japonicum And Soybean Symbiotic Response To Glyphosate In Glyphosate-Tolerant Soybeans, Jodie M. Scheele, C. Andy King, Marilynn K. Davies, Larry C. Purcell Jan 2002

Bradyrhizobium Japonicum And Soybean Symbiotic Response To Glyphosate In Glyphosate-Tolerant Soybeans, Jodie M. Scheele, C. Andy King, Marilynn K. Davies, Larry C. Purcell

Discovery, The Student Journal of Dale Bumpers College of Agricultural, Food and Life Sciences

Soybean (Glycine max) grain contains approximately 40% protein and 6.5% nitrogen (N) on an elemental basis. Therefore, the plant requires an abundant N supply throughout its life cycle, and symbiotic N fixation of soybean with Bradyrhizobium japonicum provides 40 to 85% of the soybean N. Although soybean cultivars have been genetically engineered to withstand the herbicide glyphosate, B. japonicum grown in culture is sensitive to glyphosate. We hypothesized that glyphosate applied to glyphosate-tolerant soybean would inhibit nodulation by B. japonicum unless B. japonicum could also be selected for glyphosate tolerance. Cultures of B. japonicum were challenged with sublethal doses of …
