occurrence of viruses and associated grain yields of paired symptomatic and nonsymptomatic tillers in kansas winter wheat fields. | vector-borne virus diseases of wheat are recurrent in nature and pose significant threats to crop production worldwide. in the spring of 2011 and 2012, a state-wide sampling survey of multiple commercial field sites and university-managed kansas agricultural experiment station variety performance trial locations spanning all nine crop-reporting regions of the state was conducted to determine the occurrence of barley yellow dwarf virus-pav (bydv-pav), cereal yellow dwarf virus-rpv, wheat streak m ... | 2016 | 26799958 |
resistance of select winter wheat (triticum aestivum) cultivars to rhopalosiphum padi (hemiptera: aphididae). | the bird cherry-oat aphid (rhopalosiphum padi l.) is a global pest of wheat and vectors some of the most damaging strains of barley yellow dwarf virus (bydv). in years of heavy r. padi infestation, r. padi and bydv together reduce wheat yields by 30-40% in kansas and other states of the u.s. great plains wheat production area. cultivation of wheat cultivars resistant to r. padi can greatly reduce production costs and mitigate r. padi-bydv yield losses, and increase producer profits. this study i ... | 2017 | 28854661 |
