Nitrogen Supply Regulates Vascular Bundle Structure and Matter Transport Characteristics of Spring Maize Under High Plant Density

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Nitrogen (N) fertilizer application greatly enhances grain yield by improving dry matter accumulation and grain filling in spring maize. However, how N application rates regulate the vascular bundle structure, matter transport and grain filling of spring

Dynamic Analysis of Gene Expression in Rice Superior and Inferior Grains by RNA-Seq. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
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 ...

Identification and Characterization of microRNAs during Maize Grain Filling. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
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 ...

Exploiting Grain-Filling Rate and Effective Grain-Filling Duration to Improve Grain Yield of Early-Maturing Maize [PDF]

, 2013
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 ...

Effects of powdery mildew on grain filling in spring barley in contrasting environments

, 1984
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 grain‐filling period.

Integrated agronomic practices management improved grain formation and regulated endogenous hormone balance in summer maize (Zea mays L.)

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2020
Compared with single agronomic practices management during grain formation, knowledge about integrated agronomic practices management on grain-filling characteristics and physiological function of endogenous hormones was limited. In order to clarify this

RGB1 Regulates Grain Development and Starch Accumulation Through Its Effect on OsYUC11-Mediated Auxin Biosynthesis in Rice Endosperm Cells

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
RGB1, a subunit of heterotrimeric G protein, plays important roles in regulating grain size and weight of rice. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying controlling grain filling process by G protein are still largely unclear.

Comparative Effects of Heat Stress at Booting and Grain-Filling Stage on Yield and Grain Quality of High-Quality Hybrid Rice

, 2023
Rice plants are highly sensitive to high-temperature stress, posing challenges to grain yield and quality. However, the impact of high temperatures on the quality of high-quality hybrid rice during the booting stage, as well as the differing effects of ...
