Effect of Ni and Urea on Growth, Nitrate and Nutrients Concentration in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Grown in Hydroponics

Majallah-i ̒Ulum-i Bāghbānī, 2017
Introduction: The N source used in commercial hydroponic culture of vegetables is mainly NO3-N. The rate of NO3- uptake is usually high, particularly in leafy vegetables and it can be markedly increased when the NO3- supply in the environment is high. An

Genome association of carbohydrate metabolites provides new insights toward functional breeding in coffee. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Coffee is one of the world's most widely consumed beverages, derived mainly from Coffea arabica, known for its superior flavor, and Coffea canephora (Robusta/Conilon), valued for its resilience and higher caffeine content. Functional breeding aims to develop cultivars that combine productivity and stress tolerance with improved health‐related ...

Negative Regulators of Rice Agronomic Traits: Functional Insights and Applications in Genome Editing‐Based Breeding

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

Effect of endosperm type on the utilization of sorghum grain by beef cattle

, 1975
In vitro evaluation of 61 varieties of sorghum grain indicated definite varietal differences in digestibility. The only factor having a significant influence on in vitro digestibility was seed hardness which is directly related to the endosperm type of ...

Natural Variation in GmSL20 Improves Seed Size and Quality in Soybean

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed size plays an important role in determining crop yield, yet the genetic mechanisms underlying the regulation of this agronomic trait remain incompletely understood in soybean. Here, we perform a genome‐wide association study mapping with seed length variations and identify a major quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 20, named ...

Temporal genetic relationships between growth, development, and malting quality in winter barley (Hordeum vulgare) using aerial imagery

The Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Grain characteristics are the cumulative product of growth and development throughout the growing season. In barley (Hordeum vulgare), these traits determine the grain's value for malting purposes. The ability to accurately predict the genetic merit for malting quality is of great interest for barley breeding programs. Same‐season selection on

The potential of seedbank digital information in plant conservation

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 1017-1028, July 2026.
Seedbanks are vital for biodiversity conservation, but their potential remains underutilised due to a limited understanding of the intraspecific genetic diversity they hold. By leveraging digitised data associated with seedbank collections, such as sampling locations, number of maternal plants and seed traits, we can attempt the estimation of genetic ...
