An efficient method to instantly assess drought-tolerant plants after germination is using osmoregulation in tissue culture media. In this study, the responses of three Iranian melon genotypes to sorbitol (0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 M) or polyethylene glycol (PEG)

Summary Improving plant architecture and increasing yields are the main goals of rice breeders. However, yield is a complex trait influenced by many yield‐related traits. Identifying and characterizing important genes in the coordinated network regulating complex rice traits and their interactions is conducive to cultivating high‐yielding rice ...

An in vitro assay for pre-screening resistance to Fusarium head blight in durum wheat
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe, is a wheat disease that causes yield losses and mycotoxin accumulation in the grain. In germplasm of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp.

“Shape of Cell”—An Auxin and Cell Wall Duet
ABSTRACT Understanding the mechanisms underlying cell shape acquisition is of fundamental importance in plant science, as this process ultimately defines the structure and function of plant organs. Plants produce cells of diverse shapes and sizes, including pavement cells and stomata of leaves, elongated epidermal cells of the hypocotyl, and cells with

Seedling elongation responses to gibberellin seed treatments in wheat
The wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Reduced height (Rht) alleles are widely used to prevent lodging through semi‐dwarfism. Seedling elongation and coleoptile length can be significantly decreased by some of these alleles, leading to reduced soil emergence ...

Rooting for the little guy: Below‐ground traits predict juvenile grass demography in microsites
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Plant functional traits can be a powerful tool for predicting species demography in response to variable environmental conditions. However, accurate predictions of juvenile plant response require ontogenetically relevant traits that capture the response to microsite ...

This review examines how hormonal homeostasis integrates environmental/developmental signals to guide carbohydrate flow in rice grain filling and endosperm development. Genetic/transcriptional networks, explored through superior/inferior spikelet models, will help reveal targets to optimize grain filling and guide breeding high‐yield crops.

High-Throughput Phenotyping of Seed/Seedling Evaluation Using Digital Image Analysis
Image-based evaluation of phenotypic traits has been applied for plant architecture, seed, canopy growth/vigor, and root characterization. However, such applications using computer vision have not been exploited for the purpose of assessing the ...
