Perennial clovers and ryegrasses as understorey crops in cereals [PDF]
, 2003 Perennial crops undersown in cereals provide ground cover from harvest of the cereal crop to sowing of the next crop. Such cover crops can e.g. reduce soil erosion, nutrient leaching and N fertiliser requirements of the succeeding crop.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Induction of apomixis, or clonal reproduction through seed, could economise commercial hybrid seed production and enable smallholder farmers to save and sow hybrid seed. Here, we demonstrate the synthetic induction of apomixis in two sorghum hybrids and show that the clonal hybrid seed can be maintained across multiple seed generations.

Non-inversion tillage in organic arable cropping [PDF]
, 2008 The opportunities for using an non-inversion tillage (NI) approach in organic systems has not been well investigated by research and what research has been done has not perhaps been sufficiently long-term.

Developing an Efficient System for Hybrid Rice Seed Production Using Partial Male Sterility
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Efficient production of hybrid rice seeds requires male sterility systems to overcome the challenges of self‐pollination. In this study, we identified male gametic transfer defect (GTrD)5 and GTrD9 as essential genes for the process of male gamete transmission in rice.

Review on Economic Impacts and Herbicide Selectivity of Selected Cereal Weeds
, 2019 Weeds interfere with cereal crops and can reduce growth, yield components and yields. Hence different weed management options were taken to alleviate its competition to hasten crop interfere, especially herbicidal. In this regard, herbicide selectivity has a great sensitivity for effective control of cereal weeds.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Floret fertility is a key determinant of grain number per spike and an important factor in cereal crop yield. However, the mechanisms by which phytohormone signalling and transcription factors coordinately regulate floret fertility and spikelet development are not well understood, especially in wheat.

Herbicide Resistance in Ryegrass: Stochastic Evaluation of Management Strategies [PDF]
Annual Ryegrass is a significant weed in cereal production in Western Australia. Herbicide resistance is increasing and is a major concern to producers. Long-term, field scale trials are being conducted on a number of sites in the state.

Remote Sensing of Endogenous Pigmentation by Inducible Synthetic Circuits in Grasses
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Plant synthetic biology holds great promise for engineering plants to meet future demands. Genetic circuits are being designed, built and tested in plants to demonstrate the proof of concept. However, developing these components in monocots, which the world relies on for grain, lags behind dicot models, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and ...

Weed problems in various tillage systems in the Nordic countries [PDF]
, 2006 There is an increasing use of various forms of reduced tillage or no-tillage in the Nordic countries. This will favour the growth of grass weed species and perennial species.

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Flower colour variation is pivotal for plant evolution, ecological adaptation, and pollinator attraction. In the Liriodendron genus, L. tulipifera features a distinct orange petal stripe which is absent in L. chinense, driven by differential carotenoid accumulation, yet the underlying genetic mechanism remains unclear.
