A prepartum diet supplemented with oilseeds high in oleic or linoleic acid reduced GnRH-induced LH release in dairy cows during second week postpartum
Download2015
Ambrose, Divakar J., Salehi, Reza, Oba, Masahito, Colazo, Marcos G.
Background The objective was to determine the effect of prepartum diets supplemented with rolled canola seed (high in oleic acid) or sunflower seed (high in linoleic acid) on luteinizing hormone (LH) pulsatility and gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH)-induced LH release during early postpartum....

A proteome-level analysis of the canola/Sclerotinia sclerotiorum interaction and sclerotial development
DownloadFall 2010
The fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (Lib.) de Bary is capable of infecting over 400 plant species including canola (Brassica napus L.). The fungus secretes oxalic acid (OA), which plays an important role in infection and disease progression. An analysis of proteome-level changes...

An assessment of the fumigant metam sodium and a Brassica juncea-derived biofumigant as management tools for clubroot (Plasmodiophora brassicae) of canola (Brassica napus)
DownloadFall 2016
Clubroot of crucifers, caused by the soilborne parasite Plasmodiophora brassicae, is spreading across canola (Brassica napus) fields in Alberta, Canada. Dissemination of the parasite is associated with the movement of infested soil on farm and other machinery, with the disease generally...

Assessment of commercially available pheromone lures for monitoring diamondback moth (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) in canola
Download2010
Abstract: Sex pheromone monitoring lures from five different commercial sources were compared for their attractiveness to male diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella L. (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) in canola, Brassica napus L., fields in western Canada. Lures that had the highest pheromone release...

Assessments of novel transgenic germplasm and treatment with the phytohormone cytokinin for reducing feeding damage by flea beetles, Phyllotreta spp. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) in canola
DownloadFall 2011
Flea beetles Phyllotreta cruciferae (Goeze) and Phyllotreta striolata (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) pose significant threats to early canola seedling establishment. The resistance potential of transgenic Brassica napus expressing cDNA encoding pea PR10.1 and 10.4 (ABR17) in Westar and...

Biogeographic histories and genetic diversity of western North American tree species: implications for climate change
DownloadFall 2013
Over the last two million years, the evolution of North American tree species, subspecies, and genetic varieties has taken place in a constantly changing landscape often dominated by extensive ice sheets and restricted temperate climate environments. Here, I approximately reconstruct post-glacial...

Birds of a feather do not always lek together: Genetic diversity and kinship structure of Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) in Alberta
Download2010
Aldridge, C.L., Bush, K.L., Coltman, D.W., Carpenter, J.E., Paszowski, C.A., Boyce, M.S.
Endangered species are sensitive to the genetic effects of fragmentation, small population size, and inbreeding, so effective management requires a thorough understanding of their breeding systems and genetic diversity. The Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) is a lekking species that...

Broadening genetic diversity in canola (Brassica napus) germplasm using the B. oleracea var. alboglabra C-genome
DownloadFall 2012
Genetic diversity in spring canola (Brassica napus L., AACC genome, 2n=38) cultivars is narrow. Limited effort has been made to utilize genetic diversity from the diploid species B. oleracea (CC genome, 2n=18), apparently due to the difficulty of producing B. napus × B. oleracea hybrids as well...

Broadening of genetic diversity in spring canola (Brassica napus L.) by use of C genome of B. oleracea var. capitata, and the effect of this on the performance of the inbred lines and their test-hybrids
DownloadFall 2018
Broadening the genetic base of spring B. napus canola is important for continued progress in breeding of hybrid cultivars. The objectives of this study were to (i) assess the potential of the C genome of B. oleracea var. capitata (cabbage) for broadening the genetic base of the C genome of B....

Broadening of genetic diversity in spring canola (Brassica napus L.) by use of the C genome of Brassica oleracea var. italica and Brassica oleracea var. capitata
DownloadSpring 2016
Spring canola Brassica napus L. (AACC, 2n = 38) is one of the major crops in Canada. A decline in genetic diversity in breeding populations is a threat for continued improvement of this crop from a long-term perspective. Genetic diversity in Canadian spring B. napus canola can be broadened...
