Chromosomal control of wheat endosperm proteins. A critical review. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Progress made in the chromosomal location of structural genes for wheat endosperm proteins, and in the study of the regulation and quantitative expression of these genes, by using aneuploids and by related techniques, is critically evaluated ...

Glucosinolate and Isothiocyanate Profiles in Different Varieties of Raphanus sativus Seed via Multivariate Data Analysis

open access: yesAgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Through HPLC–MS/MS analysis and multivariate statistics, raphani semen (RS) varieties with high functional components were screened. The white raphani semen “Xuebawang” was identified as ideal for further study due to its high bioactive content: glucoraphenin (9010.27 mg/100 g), glucoraphanin (1027.76 mg/100 g), sulforaphane (66.14 mg/100 g), and ...

Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Variations of endoreduplication and its potential contribution to endosperm development in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2019
Endoreduplication is the phenomenon by which cells increase their ploidy. Endoreduplication is initiated by the transition from the mitotic cell cycle to the endocycle, in which DNA replication occurs without a subsequent chromosome separation and ...

Starch Biosynthesis in Crop Plants

open access: yesAgronomy, 2018
Starch is a water-insoluble polyglucan synthesized inside the plastids of plant tissues to provide a store of carbohydrate. Starch harvested from plant storage organs has probably represented the major source of calories for the human diet since before ...

The Rapid Cytological Process of Grain Determines Early Maturity in Weedy Rice

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Shorter grain-filling period and rapid endosperm development endow weedy rice (WR) with early maturity compared to cultivated rice (CR). However, the role of the cytological features and antioxidative enzyme system during grain development are largely ...

A study of seed vigour and seedling emergence of maize under field and laboratory conditions : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
Maximum yield is obtained from an optimum stand of any crop species. However there are many factors influencing the stand which can broadly be grouped as soil and plant factors. Soil moisture, temperature and aeration influence germination. These factors

The Effect of Lactic Acid in Association With Steam in Reducing Microorganisms in Soft Wheat

open access: yesCereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Within the food industry, steam is an effective method of microbial reduction for a variety of products. Previous studies have shown that tempering soft wheat with organic acids, as well as steam application, can potentially reduce wheat's microbial load with minor changes in the functional properties of the flour ...

Nuclear Entanglement: New Insights Into the Role of Cytoskeleton and Nucleoskeleton in Plant Nuclear Function

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

Changes in concentration of protein and nucleic acids in the endosperm during ovule development in Clivia miniata

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
Changes of protein and nucleic acid concentrations in micropylar and chalazal parts of the endosperm during exponential and stationary phases of embryo growth (Clivia miniata Regel) were examined. The following facts were established: 1.
