Uncovering the Role of the KANADI Transcription Factor ZmKAN1 in Enhancing Drought Tolerance in Maize [PDF]

open access: yesPlants
Drought stress causes substantial yield losses in maize, posing a serious threat to food security. Leaf adaxial-abaxial polarity development is closely associated with drought tolerance.

Optimizing the N Rate for Maize Forage to Balance Profits and N Ecological Stress

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
The N application used for the production of forage affects environment stress. The N application rate used for the production of the whole maize (Zea mays L.) plant (WMP) affects the produced feed and environment.

Rotary and subsoiling tillage rotations influence soil carbon and nitrogen sequestration and crop yield

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2022
Long-term single tillage causes serious deterioration of land quality and reduction of crop yield. Tillage rotation can alleviate the problems caused by long-term single tillage. However, the effects of different tillage rotations are still very limited.

Heat stability of winter wheat depends on cultivars, timing and protective methods

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
Heat stress negatively affects wheat production in many regions of the world. At present, sensitivity to heat stress remains one of the least understood aspects of wheat genetics and breeding, and measures for preventing heat stress are understudied.

Evaluation of a new method for quantification of heat tolerance in different wheat cultivars

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2018
Heat stress seriously affects wheat production in many regions of the world. At present, heat tolerance research remains one of the least understood fields in wheat genetics and breeding and there is a lack of effective methods to quantify heat stress ...

Genetic dissection of the grain-filling rate and related traits through linkage analysis and genome-wide association study in bread wheat

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2022
Wheat grain yield is generally sink-limited during grain filling. The grain-filling rate (GFR) plays a vital role but is poorly studied due to the difficulty of phenotype surveys.

Study of Genetic Variation and Drought Tolerance in Commercial Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) Cultivars [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Genetic Resources, 2015
In order to identify drought stress tolerance in rapeseed, nine commercial rapeseed cultivars (Opera, Karaj1, Karaj2, Karaj3, Zarfam, Okapi, Talayeh, Licord and Modena) were evaluated under two conditions (normal and drought stress) in Kangavar region in
