Field trial analyses of wheat and cassava benefit from spatial correction

Spatial variation is a major source of error in agricultural field experiments affecting genotype performance prediction. Implementing statistical models that account for spatial effects can improve the prediction of genotype performance. This study evaluated the impact of the P-spline spatial correction method on the...

Differential response of winter wheat and barley cultivars to yellow dwarf virus strains and aphid vectors.

Yellow dwarf viruses (YDV), comprising strains of barley yellow dwarf virus (BYDV) and cereal yellow dwarf virus (CYDV), constrain cereal production in the United States by causing yellow dwarf disease (YDD). Five principal B/CYDV strains occur in cereals: BYDV-PAV, -MAV, -RMV, -SGV, and CYDV-RPV. Although YDV has been...

Identifying marker-trait associations for wheat stem sawfly resistance

Two novel WSS resistance loci were identified on chromosomes 2B and 5A. Characterization of WSS resistance loci will improve breeders’ ability to select to reduce yield loss due to WSS. Wheat stem sawfly (WSS) is a native grass feeding pest of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L) which is difficult to control since most...
