Spring 2018
The effect of plant proteins, specifically those from yellow field pea seeds on the in vitro digestibility of wheat starch was studied. Initially, the starch digestibility profile of pressure cooked pea seeds (dehulled and split), pea flour and isolated starches from pea and wheat was evaluated...

Estimation of Source- and Quality-Differentiated Import Demand Under Aggregate Import Quota: An Application to Japan's Wheat
Download1998
Since a seminal work by Armington (1969), estimating source-differentiated import demand has become a useful tool in applied international trade research. Trade policy evaluation and simulation require reliable estimates of the responsiveness of import demand to international price changes....

Examining the Biology and Monitoring Tools of Sitodiplosis mosellana in the Peace River region, Alberta
DownloadSpring 2019
Wheat midge, Sitodiplosis mosellana Géhin (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), is an invasive pest of wheat that has spread into the Peace River region of Alberta, Canada. The biology and monitoring of wheat midge has not previously been examined in this region. Wheat midge overwintering density and...

Exploring above- and belowground behavioural responses to nutrients and neighbours in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
DownloadSpring 2022
Taking in environmental information and responding in ways that maximize their ability to thrive and reproduce, plants exhibit behaviour through constant changes in biomass development and spatial distribution. Studies aiming to map this behaviour often use model plants like sunflowers and...
