The effects of soil and plant nutrients on the oviposition preference, larval performance and spatial dynamics of Ceutorhynchus obstrictus and its parasitoids
DownloadFall 2010
The effects of nitrogen and sulfur fertilization on the oviposition, feeding preferences, and larval performance of Ceutorhynchus obstrictus (Marsham) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) on Brassica napus L. were examined in a series of laboratory experiments. The associations between C. obstrictus...

The Impact of Clubroot Resistant Canola Cultivars on Plasmodiophora brassicae Resting Spore Concentrations in the Soil
DownloadFall 2016
The soilborne pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, causal agent of clubroot of canola (Brassica napus L.), is difficult to manage due to the longevity of its resting spores, its ability to produce large amounts of inoculum, and the prohibitive costs of effective fungicides. The cropping of...

Human Cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the most common cause of congenital infection in newborns. One mechanism for this virus to reach the fetus is to cross the placenta through the syncytiotrophoblast layer. Accumulation and protection of pathogens in the syncytiotrophoblast could affect the systemic...

Transcriptomic responses in spring canola carrying clubroot resistance introgressed from rutabaga or “Mendel”
DownloadFall 2020
Canola provides ~15% of the total global vegetable oil supply and is an important crop contributing about $26.7 billion to Canada’s economy. Canola production has been threatened by clubroot disease caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin, which in extreme case can result complete crop...

Type-1 Brassica napus Diacylglycerol Acyltransferases: Enzyme Characterization and Molecular Tools for Increasing Storage Lipid Production in Yeast
DownloadFall 2015
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the final step in the acyl-CoA- dependent biosynthesis of triacylglycerol (TAG). The level of DGAT activity may have a substantial effect on the flow of carbon into TAG in many organisms. In plants, yeast, and animals, two families of...

Understanding the role of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on postpartum reproductive function and embryo development in dairy cows
DownloadSpring 2016
The objectives of this work were to investigate the influence of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on feed intake, calf birth weight, maternal and neonatal fatty acid profiles, milk production, postpartum reproductive function, early embryonic development and its transcriptome profile in...

Yields, quality and suitability of four annual forages for deer pasture in North Central Alberta
Download2009
Chapman, G., Bork, E,, Donkor, N., Hudson, R.
Field pea (Pisum sativum), canola (Brassica napus), turnips (Brassica rapa) and Berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum) were grown in north central Alberta to assess their potential yield and quality and to evaluate their utilization and preference by white-tailed deer. Herbage DM yield, crude...
