DEPARTMENT OF PLANT SCIENCES Annual Report January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2014

A. Significant departmental achievements in research, teaching and outreach during the past year a. Teaching Curriculum review. Following consolidation of the School of Food Systems into the Department in 2013, a curriculum review was conducted. The Cereal/Food Science group identified a need for a position in Cereal Chemistry and one in Food Engineering/Food Packaging. They also determined that there was no need for development of additional classes at this time. A new faculty position to teach CFS 460/660 and CFS 461/661 each fall semester and CFS 464/664 each spring semester has been requested.

b. Research/Scholarly/Creative Activities The following varieties were released by Plant Science Faculty: Gold ND Flax, ND 1406HP and ND Henson soybean, Dakota Ruby Potato, ND Genesis two-rowed barley, Rosie Light and Talon Dark kidney bean, Northern Empress Japanese Elm, and Cinnamon Curls Dwarf Korean Birch.

The NDSU Horticulture project coordinated a team of 275 households in 48 counties that evaluated promising vegetable, herb and cut flower varieties in gardens. This project led to improved gardening practices, higher vegetable yields and healthier diets for North Dakota gardeners.

Over 75% of the spring wheat and 90% of the durum wheat, barley and flax planted in North Dakota, as well as a high percentage of other crops, are planted with varieties that originated from foundation seed maintained and distributed by the NDSU Foundation Seedstocks Project.

Total Peer Reviewed Publications (published or accepted) 107 National or International Invited Presentations 104 Research Grants and Contracts (number that are active) 160 Cumulative Amount (total value of active grants and contracts): $7,364,824.81

c. Extension/Outreach A Guide to North Dakota Noxious and Troublesome Weeds, by Rodney G. Lym, received an American Library Association Notable Government Document award.

d. Service Dr. Berti received the Larson/Yaggie Excellence in Research Award. Brenda Deckard received the Service-Learning Award. Dr. Hatterman-Valenti received the Outstanding Faculty Advising Award.

Dr. Mike McMullen was honored with the Distinguished Service to Oat Improvement Award by the American Oat Workers Conference. Dr. Mohamed Mergoum was honored as a Fellow of the Crop Science Society of America. Dr. Rebekah Oliver received the Bison Ambassadors Apple Polisher Award that recognizes those that have had an exceptional impact on a student’s college experience.

B. Department goals and priorities for the past year, including narrative about progress toward those goals. New teaching lab. Funding has been approved to build a new teaching lab in the space now occupied by growth chambers in Loftsgard Hall. While the new STEM building is exciting for our campus as a whole, many of the classes taught in Plant Sciences need ready access to greenhouse space. The new teaching lab in Loftsgard will provide our students with the same new teaching technologies available in the STEM building and access to greenhouse space in Waldron Hall that is connected by a skywalk.

C. Department challenges for the past year, including narrative on how those are being addressed. Continued High Enrollment. The enrollment in the Plant Sciences curriculum reached a record high of 287 students (237 in CWS, 29 in HORT, and 21 in SUTM). The Food Science program had an additional 41 students. The CWS program has more than doubled in six years, from 98 students in 2008 to 237 in Fall Semester 2014. The increases are driven by strong employment opportunities in the region. Many of the CWS students have multiple job offers following graduation. Graduate student enrollment remains strong with 74 enrolled in the Plant Sciences MS and PhD and HORT MS programs, and 26 MS and PhD students in the Cereal Sciences graduate program.

While the undergraduate enrollment increases are exciting, they present challenges, including the need to add extra sections for courses such as PLSC 225 (Principles of Crop Production), PLSC 320 (Principles of Forage Production), and PLSC 491 (Senior Seminar) without additional funding or instructors. The current workload is not sustainable for the long-term. Additional faculty and/or an enrollment cap will be required to keep our courses at the high standards our students expect and deserve.

D. Department goals and priorities for the coming year Complete the process of eliminating Sports and Urban Turfgrass Management as a stand- alone major. The SUTM undergraduate program will become an option under the Horticulture major and cease to enroll students as SUTM majors by Fall semester 2016.

Develop a plan to update the Plant Sciences Learning Center. The Plant Sciences Learning Center is the only space on campus that is specifically set up for a department’s undergraduate students to work and study either in groups or individually for multiple classes.

Department of Plant Pathology 2014 Annual Report

A. Significant Departmental achievements in research, teaching and outreach during the past year

a. Teaching. The department worked with the university to improve assessment activities in 2014. Meinhardt led this effort. Del Rio added new laboratory practices to PPTH754 (Plant Disease Epidemiology) that include R codes in addition to SAS codes to analyze data. LeBoldus (PPTH 457/657) introduced a module using 3-D printing as part of a graduate student project to facilitate student understanding of the 3-D relationship between host and pathogen in infected trees. Meinhardt developed new course on pesticides which will be first given in the fall of 2016. Yan developed new material for Plant Nematology, a course on the books that has not been taught for several years. PP324 (Introductory Plant Pathology) had record of 92, making it necessary to add a fifth laboratory section without additional university resources.

b. Research/Scholarly/Creative Activities  Major research accomplishments. The department’s research continued to focus on 1) developing effective and sustainable strategies and tools to manage economically-important plant diseases in the state, 2) working with breeders to develop disease- resistant germplasm and varieties for the state and 3) understanding fundamental aspects of plant disease, resistance and epidemiology.

Total Peer Reviewed Publications (published or accepted) 51 National or International Invited Presentations 18 Juried presentations/performances/exhibitions 0 Research Grants and Contracts (number that are active) 116 Cumulative Amount (total value of active grants and contracts): $5,024,252

Numbers above are reflected in the Appendices. In addition to these accomplishments, Khan, del Rio and Liu hosted total of four visiting scientists from Serbia and Brazil.

 Significant additions to research capability. Yan joined the faculty as a nematologist. This is a new position created by the 2013 legislature. Gudmestad assisted the VP of Agricultural Affairs and the NDSU Development Foundation in identifying 40 potato producers, processers and allied industries as donors for the Neil C. Gudmestad Endowed Chair of Potato Pathology. Those donors, from 13 states, contributed $4.2 million to the endowment which was matched with $2.1 million from the ND Higher Education Challenge Fund. This is the first fully endowed chair position at NDSU.

c. Extension/Outreach  List new initiatives, innovative extension approaches Departmental Extension activities, generally supported by applied research activities, continued to focus on plant disease and insect pest management programs. The department coordinated departmental and university IPM activities with national efforts.

B. Department Goals and Priorities for the past year, including narrative about progress toward those goals. The department made excellent progress on its previous years’ goals. Faculty worked hard and successfully toward fulfilling department’s mission to the university. In addition, we successfully hired a nematologist, completed a successful third year review of a probationary faculty member and achieved record graduate enrollment.

C. Department Challenges for the past year, including narrative on how those are being addressed. Space continues to be the biggest challenge facing the department. We are dealing with the issue by 1) working with Ag Administration to secure and improve space and 2) rejecting more graduate student applications as a means to reduce department size and to reduce the space needed. Dr. LeBoldus has indicated he will leave the department for another opportunity. We will work with Ag Administration to try to refill or redirect the position.

D. Department Goals and Priorities for the Coming Year. Goals for the next year would be to: 1) continue meeting the departmental mission objectives, 2) initiate efforts to replace Dr. LeBoldus and 3) to continue to address our space limitations. North Central Division Early Career Award.

School of Natural Resource Sciences – 2014 Annual Report

A. Significant Departmental achievements in research, teaching and outreach during the past year d. Teaching  Changes made since last report to enhance student learning to achieve the intended student learning outcomes for the curriculum. o For the first time, bylaws were created to govern the interdisciplinary Curriculum and Assessment Committee, and the Graduate Committee of the SNRS. o Faculty across the SNRS disciplines contributed to the development of Common Learning Outcomes and assessment strategies for the entire school. o Our 2014 Assessment Report received very high marks from the University Assessment Committee, which is now using it as a model for other departments. o Faculty from different academic programs in the SNRS worked together on several experiential learning activities, where students collaborated to write journal articles. These faculty were asked to lead discussions on these activities during a NDSU Pedagogical Luncheon. o In 2014, we started to align all of our School’s disciplines (ENT, RNG, SOIL, NRM) so that the course schedules do not conflict. This information is now provided to all SNRS faculty to minimize conflicts. o Faculty across disciplines now advise NRM students.  List new initiatives, innovative teaching approaches (providing evidence of quality improvements in teaching and learning. o All of the SNRS’ undergraduate disciplines adopted a portfolio system in which students are provided a portfolio and populate the portfolio with examples of different learning outcomes throughout their undergraduate program. o For the first time, we now have one NRM/Range/Soils capstone course for all our undergraduate students. Dr. Hargiss is taking lead on this course, but will receive help from faculty of other disciplines of the School. o The first ever SNRS Research Symposium was held in 2014, highlighting the work of our different disciplines. It brought together faculty, staff, and students at the MU, and included a keynote presentation, and student seminars and posters. e. Research/Scholarly/Creative Activities  Major research accomplishments o The School’s research productivity was up overall in 2014. Active grants were up by 9% from 2013 for a total of $6,957,397 (value from Ag. Budget). There were ninety-two total graduate students advised by SNRS faculty, which was also up in 2014. The breakdown of graduate students by degree was 20 MNRM, 51 MS, and 21 PhD. Peer-reviewed publications also increased by 18% in 2014 for the previous year, where 72 faculty published.  Significant additions to research capability o We hired Assistant Professor of Range Science, Dr. Torre Hovick, which completes our Range Science Program, and increasing the research potential of the discipline and SNRS. o We recently transitioned Dr. Christina Hargiss from Assistant Professor of Practice to a tenure track position in research and teaching. This transition will greatly benefit the research productivity of the School, and the NRM Program. f. Extension/Outreach  List new initiatives, innovative extension approaches o Activities of the Extension faculty have increased. The number of Extension programs planned went from 26 in 2013 to 36 in 2014, with approximately 2608 face-to-face contacts. Extension faculty also provided 129 presentations reaching over 10,000 people in-person. o Soil health agent training was initiated where five agents were brought to campus to participate in a 2- day "pilot program". These agents play an integral role in developing and testing materials for more extensive soil health training of agents being offered in 2016. d. Service 12

 Summarize state, national, or international professional service activities over the past year that are most noteworthy (for example: elected to lead national or international professional organization, organizing national or international professional meetings, etc.) o School faculty have established national and international reputations, where their expertise is being sought for a variety of services, such as grant review panels, editorial boards, external promotion and tenure evaluations, and manuscript reviews in the peer-review process. For example, in 2012, we had 7 faculty serve on editorial boards, and in 2014 there are now 11. During this same time frame, the manuscript reviews in the peer-review process went from 73 to 175. Faculty have also been awarded national awards in 2014, including (among others) Fellow in the Agronomy Society of America, Outstanding Young Professional in Society Range Management, and Excellence in Conservation Award for Soil and Water Conservation Society. Regionally, the visibility and reputation of School’s faculty across the state has also increased. Several of the state’s commodity requests for proposals have reflected the importance of research in the areas of the School’s disciplines. In 2014, roughly one-third of the School’s active grants came from commodity/livestock groups for approximately $2 million. This was almost a 60% increase in commodity/livestock funding from the previous year. B. Department Goals and Priorities for the past year, including narrative about progress toward those goals. Of the goals that were established from last year, the following three were addressed: (1) Conduct a backwards audit of the School’s courses A critical review of the courses was conducted and as a first step all the courses in the School were aligned so there were no schedule conflicts. (2) Increase undergraduate student engagement and learning We developed the idea of using a portfolio and incorporated it into the assessment of all the School’s programs. Students will be able to populate the portfolio throughout their academic careers with examples from their classes that demonstrate specific learning outcomes (e.g. critical thinking, writing) (3) Pursue an innovative MNRM tuition model to gain resources A draft proposal was written and is under review. C. Department Challenges for the past year, including narrative on how those are being addressed. The School is still relatively new compared to more established programs in the university. The ongoing challenge is to develop synergies across disciplines. Efforts are made to foster synergies across the School’s disciplines and between Extension and research faculty to provide solutions to complex problems. For example, when making requests (e.g. AES assistantships, revolving equipment funds), preference is placed on proposals that are interdisciplinary, or forming diverse committees, especially search committees. Also, when articulating goals for our curriculum discussions, an emphasis is placed on academic uniformity. Synergistic, integrated activities have emerged throughout the School for research and teaching. D. Department Goals and Priorities for the Coming Year 1) Form bylaws for remaining SNRS committees; 2) Identify opportunities to meet needs of agricultural and natural resource stakeholders impacted by oil and gas; 3) Look for means to recruit and maintain high quality graduate students.

F. Department Challenges for the past year, including narrative on how those are being addressed.

Since Dr. Wolf-Hall resigned as Department Head in January of 2015, this has been a year of personnel challenges for the department. Following Dr. Wolf-Hall’s resignation, Jessica Ebert requested a year of unpaid leave of absence, Dawn Doetkott resigned due to chronic health problems, Rebecca Datzov resigned due to work relocation by her husband, and Dr. Fisher resigned his faculty position when offered a job in Maryland. In addition, Dr. Eugene Berry has been on sabbatical this year. Therefore, VMS is significantly compromised by lack of available faculty and staff; a series of events that has redistributed the departmental workload onto a smaller group of people. These staffing vacancies are being addressed by individual search processes that will take time and patience.

The Department continues to face challenges with numbers of teaching assistants and space for research. Dr. Dorsam, a departmental faculty member, still does not have lab or office space in VMS. We will continue to petition the Dean and Provost for TAs to help with MICR 202, a large Gen Ed course which always produces more laboratory enrollment that VMS can service. In addition, with the construction of a new VDL, VMS is planning to request some of the vacated laboratory space to address departmental teaching and research needs.

G. Department Goals and Priorities for the Coming Year

1. Successfully recruit a new Department Head 2. Successfully recruit a new Assistant Professor to fill Dr. Fisher’s position 3. Successfully hire a new technician for Dr. Fisher’s laboratory 4. Successfully hire a new front office support staff 5. Develop a new departmental mission statement that embraces the university plan 6. Complete the redesign of the departmental graduate program 7. Complete creation of a professional Master’s degree in microbiology

Veterinary Diagnostic Services Department

H. Significant Departmental achievements in research, teaching and outreach during the past year a. Teaching  Drs Newell and Webb taught a necropsy laboratory for the Veterinary Technology class. This provided a hands on sampling opportunity for the students.  MICR 465 was successfully migrated to Animal Science and given a numeric designation of ANSC 370. This class covers animal health in livestock species (cattle, sheep, swine). For the first time, dogs cats and horses were taught as ANSC 399 in the spring of 2015. The Animal Health Management courses were migrated to Animal Science as well (ANSC 378).

b. Research/Scholarly/Creative Activities c. The VDL is involved in a variety of research opportunities totaling $539,430 from 9 different grants/cooperative agreements. d. Three referred articles, two abstracts, three presentations and one book chapter originated from VDL faculty this year.

e. Extension/Outreach  Dr. Webb implemented the use of a new electronic newsletter that is available to veterinarians in North Dakota and western Minnesota.

. Service o Dr. Dyer served as president of the NDVMA. o The VLD hosted its annual CE event in May. o Tour of the VDL with the North Dakota Lieutenant Governor, 7/29/14 o Tour of the VDL with the minister of agriculture from Kyrgyzstan, 9/10/14 o Met with Minister of Education for Republic of Liberia, George S.S. Wuo

I. Department Goals and Priorities for the past year, including narrative about progress toward those goals. A considerable amount of time was spent in achieving full accreditation status with the American Association of Veterinary Laboratory Diagnosticians (AAVLD). This was successfully accomplished in the summer of 2014; the VDL is now fully accredited. The VDL was successful in hiring a full-time veterinary microbiologist (Dr. Claire Miller) to oversee the microbiology, virology and serology sections of the lab. Dr. Miller successfully passed her Veterinary Microbiology board exam in December and has assumed her full responsibilities at the VDL. Finally, the third priority was enlisting assistance and providing information for the successful funding of a new VDL by the North Dakota legislature in 2015.

C. Department Challenges for the past year, including narrative on how those are being addressed. Our challenges are linked to the need for a new VDL – space. In addition, we need more technical staffing as many of our sections are one person deep. Sources of funding for a new technician have been discussed and would have to come from collections income.

D.Department Goals and Priorities for the Coming Year Priorities for the coming year include: 1) beginning the design of new Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory, 2) continue to consider ways to hire new technical help for the VDL, 3) streamlining the VDL Quality Assurance system, and 4) refining our use of IT to make dissemination of case results more efficient.
