Carbon assimilation and distribution in cotton photosynthetic organs is a limiting factor affecting boll weight formation under drought

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Previous studies have documented cotton boll weight reductions under drought, but the relative importance of the subtending leaf, bracts and capsule wall in driving drought-induced reductions in boll mass has received limited attention.

Individual and interactive influences of elevated air temperature and soil drought at the flowering and boll-forming stage on cottonseed yield and nutritional quality

Crop Journal, 2022
As the main byproduct of cotton production, cottonseed yields edible vegetable oil, ruminant feed, and industrial products. We evaluated the individual and interactive effects of elevated air temperature and soil drought on cottonseed yield and ...

TaNBP1, a guanine nucleotide-binding subunit gene of wheat, is essential in the regulation of N starvation adaptation via modulating N acquisition and ROS homeostasis

BMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Nitrate (NO3 −) is the major source of nitrogen (N) for higher plants aside from its function in transducing the N signaling. Improving N use efficiency of crops has been an effective strategy for promotion of the sustainable agriculture ...
