Regulation of aleurone development in cereal grains [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2010
The aleurone layer of cereal grains is important biologically as well as nutritionally and economically. Here, current knowledge on the regulation of aleurone development is reviewed. Recent reports suggest that the control of aleurone development is more complex than earlier models portrayed. Multiple levels of genetic regulation control aleurone cell

Molecular prospective on the wheat grain development

open access: yesCritical Reviews in Biotechnology, 2021
Wheat grain development is an important biological process to determine grain yield and quality, which is controlled by the interplay of genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. Wheat grain development has been extensively characterized at the phenotypic and genetic levels.

Effect of spikelet position on starch proportion, granule distribution and related enzymes activity in wheat grain

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2013
The starch proportion, starch granule distribution, and activities of enzymes involved in starch synthesis in different spikelet positions were examined during grain development in two high-yielding winter wheat cultivars.

New Growth-Related Features of Wheat Grain Pericarp Revealed by Synchrotron-Based X-ray Micro-Tomography and 3D Reconstruction

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops as it provides 20% of calories and proteins to the human population. To overcome the increasing demand in wheat grain production, there is a need for a higher grain yield, and this can be ...

Hordein Accumulation in Developing Barley Grains [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
The temporal pattern of accumulation of hordein storage proteins in developing barley grains was studied by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), western blot and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Hordein accumulation was compared to the pattern seen for two abundant control proteins, serpin Z4 (an early accumulator) and ...

Characterization of Starch Physicochemical Properties and Grain Transcriptome Reveal the Mechanism for Resistant Starch Accumulation

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
Understanding the physicochemical properties of starch during grain development and the mechanism for resistant starch (RS) accumulation will provide useful information for improving the RS content of wheat.

The dynamics of indigenous epiphytic bacterial and fungal communities of barley grains through the commercial malting process in Western Canada

open access: yesCurrent Research in Food Science, 2022
Microbial activity is present at every step of the malting process. It is, therefore, critical to manage the grain-associated microbial communities for the production of high-quality malts. This study characterized barley and malt epiphytic microbiota by

Microscopic and Proteomic Analysis of Dissected Developing Barley Endosperm Layers Reveals the Starchy Endosperm as Prominent Storage Tissue for ER-Derived Hordeins Alongside the Accumulation of Barley Protein Disulfide Isomerase (HvPDIL1-1)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Barley (Hordeum vulgare) is one of the major food sources for humans and forage sources for animal livestock. The average grain protein content (GPC) of barley ranges between 8 and 12%.
