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 ...

TOUCHING GRAIN KERNELS SEPARATION BY GAP-FILLING
Separation of touching grain kernels is a recurring problem in image analysis. Morphological methods to separatemerged objects in binary images are generally based on the watershed transformapplied to the inverse of the distance function. This method is efficient with roughly circular objects, but cannot separate objects beyond a certain elliptic shape

Plastic film mulching (PM) is widely utilized for maize production in China. However, the effect of PM on the grain yield of crops has not been established, and the biochemical mechanism underlying the increase or decrease in grain yield under PM is not ...

GRAIN INCOMPLETE FILLING 2 regulates grain filling and starch synthesis during rice caryopsis development [PDF]
AbstractRice grain filling determines grain weight, final yield and grain quality. Here, a rice defective grain filling mutant, gif2, was identified. Grains of gif2 showed a slower filling rate and a significant lower final grain weight and yield compared to wild‐type.

Effect of removing superior spikelets on grain filling of inferior spikelets in rice
: Large-panicle rice cultivars often fail to reach their yield potential due to the poor grain filling of inferior spikelets (IS). Thus, it is important to determine the causes of poor IS grain filling.

Effects of Nanoparticles (Zinc and Silicon) and Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria on Yield, Photosynthetic Pigments and Grain Filling Components of Triticale under Salinity Stres [PDF]
IntroductionSalinity stands as a significant environmental stressor that profoundly curtails the growth and yield of crop plants. This adversity also extends to the impairment of pigments and plastids, leading to diminished chlorophyll indices, rates ...

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.
