To define the growth phases for analyzing the physiological and morphological mechanisms of grain filling in a spring wheat canopy, the dry weight of the grains and the water soluble sugar content (WSC) and structural weight of the culm were measured for the variety Haruyutaka everyday during the grain-filling period.

Final grain weight in wheat is not strongly influenced by sugar levels or activities of key starch synthesising enzymes during grain filling [PDF]
We investigated the extent to which final grain weight in wheat is limited by starch synthesis capacity during grain filling under field conditions. A total of 54 wheat genotypes including elite varieties and landraces was grown in two successive years ...

We examined the involvement of genetic and environmental factors in the variations and associations of the rate and duration of grain filling and the final grain weight in rice cultivars, instead of the simple phenotypic correlation and variance.

Contribution of the pod wall to seed grain filling in alfalfa [PDF]
AbstractThree genotypes of alfalfa viz. Medicago sativa (Zhongmu No. 1, Zhongmu No. 2) and M. varia (Caoyuan No. 3) grown in the filed were investigated for the contribution of pod wall and leaves by shading all pods and leaves on July 15, 20 and 25, respectively. Date was recorded for total pod weight (TPW), pod wall weight (PWW), seed weight per pod (

Identification of genotypes and marker validation for grain filling rate and grain filling duration in wheat under conservation agriculture [PDF]
Increase in ambient temperature beyond threshold level as predicted by global climate models may impact wheat production severely in India if it happens during grain filling stage. Grain filling rate (GFR) and grain filling duration (GFD) are critical determinant for final grain yield realization in wheat.

Dynamic Analysis of Gene Expression in Rice Superior and Inferior Grains by RNA-Seq. [PDF]
Poor grain filling of inferior grains located on lower secondary panicle branch causes great drop in rice yield and quality. Dynamic gene expression patterns between superior and inferior grains were examined from the view of the whole transcriptome by ...

Effects of powdery mildew on grain filling in spring barley in contrasting environments
Circumstantial evidence from field experiments at Rothamsted suggested that effects of powdery mildew on grain filling in spring barley may be determined partly by temperature during the graināfilling period.
