Genetics and Grain Filling Effects on Starch Properties in Wheat. [PDF]
The physicochemical properties of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) determine its application. This study aims to investigate the genetic patterns and heterosis performance of physicochemical properties of wheat starch, using the variety Xinong99 and two filling-deficient mutants, dwarf wrinkle grain (dwg) and dwarf narrow grain (dng), obtained by EMS ...

Grain filling of cereals under soil drying [PDF]
SummaryMonocarpic plants require the initiation of whole‐plant senescence to remobilize and transfer assimilates pre‐stored in vegetative tissues to grains. Delayed whole‐plant senescence caused by either heavy use of nitrogen fertilizer or adoption of lodging‐resistant cultivars/hybrids that remain green when the grains are due to ripen results in a ...

Proteome Analysis of Grain Filling and Seed Maturation in Barley [PDF]
Abstract In monocotyledonous plants, the process of seed development involves the deposition of reserves in the starchy endosperm and development of the embryo and aleurone layer. The final stages of seed development are accompanied by an increase in desiccation tolerance and drying out of the mature seed.

High post-anthesis temperature effects on bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain transcriptome during early grain-filling [PDF]
Background: High post-anthesis (p.a) temperatures significantly reduce mature grain weight in wheat and other cereals. However, the mechanisms through which this reduction occurs are not entirely known. It has been suggested that the pericarp may control

The improvement of grain filling is the key issue for promoting wheat thousand grain weight and grain yield. The levels of polyamines (PAs) significantly affect grain filling in cereals, but the mechanism by which PAs affect grain filling in wheat is ...

Effect of foliar application of Azospirillum brasilense and zinc sulfate on the grain-filling process of rainfed wheat [PDF]
Grain growth (by weight), grain-filling rate, and the duration of each grain-filling phase are crucial in determining the final grain weight. Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of ZnSO4 on grain filling in the Sardari wheat cultivar ...

Effects of Supplemental Irrigation and Biofertilizers on Yield, Chlorophyll Content, Rate and Period of Grain Filling of Rainfed Wheat [PDF]
Introduction The yield of wheat in Iran is very low as compared to the other wheat producing countries. One of the most important effective factors is water shortage.

The relationship between polyamines and hormones in the regulation of wheat grain filling. [PDF]
The grain weight of wheat is strongly influenced by filling. Polyamines (PA) are involved in regulating plant growth. However, the effects of PA on wheat grain filling and its mechanism of action are unclear.

Characterization of the rate and duration of grain filling in wheat in southwestern China
Field trials were carried out during 2011–2013 in three locations on 10 wheat genotypes. Traits that were investigated included grain weight, grain-filling duration, grain-filling rates and the lag phase from flowering to the commencement of effective ...
