Maize Kernel Composition and Morphology Influences Pericarp Retention During Nixtamalization
Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.Abstract Background and Objectives Pericarp retention during nixtamalization directly influences masa quality, affecting texture, machinability, and nutritional content of staple foods such as tortillas and chips. Despite its industrial relevance, the underlying kernel traits that govern pericarp retention remain poorly characterized.

Perspectives on Germplasm [PDF]
HortScience, 2003 The very early years of the beginnings of agriculture are understandably difficult to chronicle. How, and why does one become a farmer? Perhaps someone noted that a stand of plants with grains or fruit bore edible materials over and over again. Someone else may have found that seeds could be saved.

Breeding switchgrass for reduced nitrogen demand
Grassland Research, EarlyView.Breeding has improved switchgrass biomass yield, but productivity is still heavily dependent on nitrogen fertilizer application. The genetic diversity needed to improve nitrogen use efficiency of switchgrass remains underused, mainly because of the slow and laborious breeding process, thus leaving the crop's high nitrogen demand as a major barrier to ...
