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 ...

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 ...

Remobilisation of phosphorus fractions in rice flag leaves during grain filling: Implications for photosynthesis and grain yields. [PDF]
Phosphorus (P) is translocated from vegetative tissues to developing seeds during senescence in annual crop plants, but the impact of this P mobilisation on photosynthesis and plant performance is poorly understood.

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.

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 ...
