Starch accumulation in hulless barley during grain filling [PDF]
Botanical Studies, 2017 Starch consists of two types of molecules: amylose and amylopectin. The objective of this study was increase understanding about mechanisms related to starch accumulation in hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) grain by measuring temporal changes in (i) grain amylose and amylopectin content, (ii) starch synthase activity, and (iii) the relative ...

Cell membrane stability- an important criterion for selection of heat tolerant genotypes in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]
, 2017 Cell membrane stability, grain filling rate, grain filling duration, canopy temperature and grain yield were used to evaluate performance of 100 diverse bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes under timely sown and late sown heat stress conditions ...

Effect of removing superior spikelets on grain filling of inferior spikelets in rice
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 : 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.

Plant Production Science, 1999 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.

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 ...

Effects of rain shelter or simulated rain during grain filling and maturation on subsequent wheat grain quality in the UK [PDF]
, 2017 The effects of simulated additional rain (ear wetting, 25 mm) or of rain shelter imposed at different periods after anthesis on grain quality at maturity and the dynamics of grain filling and desiccation were investigated in UK field-grown crops of wheat
