Grain-filling rate improves physical grain quality in barley under heat stress conditions during the grain-filling period [PDF]
Heat stress is a primary constraint to Australia's barley production. In addition to impacting grain yield, it adversely affects physical grain quality (weight and plumpness) and market value.

Exploiting Grain-Filling Rate and Effective Grain-Filling Duration to Improve Grain Yield of Early-Maturing Maize [PDF]
Early-maturing maize (Zea mays L.) genotypes yield 15 to 30% less than late-maturing genotypes. One strategy for improving grain yield in the early-maturing group involves assessment of grain-filling traits as secondary traits for selection for high ...

Response of grain-filling rate and grain quality of mid-season indica rice to nitrogen application
Nitrogen is one of the important factors for high yield of rice. Apart from high yield, high quality has become the current urgent demand for rice production. Grain-filling stage is crucial for rice yield and quality formation.

Identification and Characterization of microRNAs during Maize Grain Filling. [PDF]
The grain filling rate is closely associated with final grain yield of maize during the period of maize grain filling. To identify the key microRNAs (miRNAs) and miRNA-dependent gene regulation networks of grain filling in maize, a deep-sequencing ...

Functional Analysis of OsCIPK17 in Rice Grain Filling [PDF]
We used mutant cipk17 and Nipponbare in field experiments to analyze agronomic traits, photosynthetic parameters, transcriptome, and gene expression. The results demonstrated cytoplasmic localization of OsCIPK17, while GUS allogeneic (A. thaliana) tissue-staining and quantitative analysis showed the gene was expressed in many organs, including flower ...

Brassinosteroids Regulate Grain Filling in Rice [PDF]
Abstract Genes controlling hormone levels have been used to increase grain yields in wheat (Triticum aestivum) and rice (Oryza sativa). We created transgenic rice plants expressing maize (Zea mays), rice, or Arabidopsis thaliana genes encoding sterol C-22 hydroxylases that control brassinosteroid (BR) hormone levels using a promoter ...

Grain-filling problem in ‘super’ rice [PDF]
Modern rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars, especially the newly bred 'super' rice, have numerous spikelets on a panicle with a large yield capacity. However, these cultivars often fail to achieve their high yield potential due to poor grain-filling of later-flowering inferior spikelets (in contrast to the earlier-flowering superior spikelets ...

Favorable Alleles of GRAIN-FILLING RATE1 Increase the Grain-Filling Rate and Yield of Rice [PDF]
Hybrid rice (Oryza sativa) has been cultivated commercially for 42 years in China. However, poor grain filling still limits the development of hybrid japonica rice. We report here the map-based cloning and characterization of the GRAIN-FILLING RATE1 (GFR1) gene present at a major-effect quantitative trait locus. We elucidated and confirmed the function

Dynamics of a Grain-Filled Ball on a Vibrating Plate [PDF]
We study experimentally how the bouncing dynamics of a hollow ball on a vibrating plate is modified when it is partially filled with liquid or grains. Whereas empty and liquid-filled balls display a dominant chaotic dynamics, a ball with grains exhibits a rich variety of stationary states, determined by the grain size and filling volume.
