Tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius Gray), a relative of common bean has been reported to be tolerant to abiotic stresses including drought, cold and heat Our preliminary screening of wild tepary accessions for tolerance to sub-zero temperatures demonstrated that the wild tepary bean accession, W6…Read More
The integration of spring wheat genetics and agronomics to mitigate risks associated with early plantings into cold soils
Previous studies have indicated that crosses between spring and winter wheat cultivars can result in spring growth habit cultivars with cold tolerance similar to winter wheats (Larsen 2012) Agronomic studies focusing on seeding date tend to indicate a yield advantage to early seeding of spring…Read More
