Rice cold tolerance at the reproductive stage in a controlled environment Tolerância ao frio do arroz no estádio reprodutivo sob condições controladas

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2006
Cold tolerance of rice (Oryza sativa L.) during the reproductive stage is important to guarantee high yield under low temperature environments. Field selection, however, does not allow identification of adequate tolerance sources and limits selection of ...

Effects of LED Light Exposure on Lutein and Bioactive Compounds in Nasturtium Flowers (Tropaeolum majus L.)

open access: yesFuture Postharvest and Food, EarlyView.
Red LED supplementation during cultivation modulated the accumulation of bioactive compounds in Tropaeolum majus flowers. Moderate exposure (3–5 h) enhanced antioxidant capacity and increased carotenoids, phenolics, and anthocyanins depending on petal color, highlighting a simple strategy to improve the functional value of edible flowers. ABSTRACT This

Breeding switchgrass for reduced nitrogen demand

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Breeding has improved switchgrass biomass yield, but productivity is still heavily dependent on nitrogen fertilizer application. The genetic diversity needed to improve nitrogen use efficiency of switchgrass remains underused, mainly because of the slow and laborious breeding process, thus leaving the crop's high nitrogen demand as a major barrier to ...

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Receptor-like Kinase GOM1 Regulates Glume-Opening in Rice

open access: yesPlants
Glume-opening of thermosensitive genic male sterile (TGMS) rice (Oryza sativa L.) lines after anthesis is a serious problem that significantly reduces the yield and quality of hybrid seeds.

Genomics of Flower Identity in Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The identity of the four characteristic whorls of typical eudicots, namely, sepals, petals, stamens, and carpels, is specified by the overlapping action of homeotic genes, whose single and combined contributions have been described in detail in the so ...

Effects of genotype and environment on the physiochemical properties of Canadian oat varieties

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 105, Issue 5, Page 3111-3121, 30 March 2025.
Abstract BACKGROUND The relationship between oat grain composition and physical attributes as influenced by oat genotype and Canadian growing environments was investigated. Thirty Canadian oat (Avena sativa L.) genotypes, grown in three Canadian growing locations (Brandon, Manitoba; Portage la Prairie, Manitoba; and Lacombe, Alberta) over 2 consecutive

Post‐Anthesis Nitrogen Loss from Corn

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, 1993
AbstractPublished research has shown relatively large amounts of NH3 being lost from aboveground vegetation during grain development for various grain crops For corn (Zea mays L.), maximum net N accumulation usually occurs during early reproductive development (R1‐R3) and a subsequent decline is often observed.

Pollen: ovule ratio and its relationship with other reproductive traits in some Passiflora species (Passifloraceae)

open access: yesAnales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2014
The pollen/ovule (P/O) ratio has been used as predictor of the reproductive system of angiosperms (lowest P/O values correspond to obligate autogamous species while the highest correlate with obligate xenogamous species) but it does not keep for all the ...
