OsSPL9 Regulates Grain Number and Grain Yield in Rice [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Rice grain yield consists of several key components, including tiller number, grain number per panicle (GNP), and grain weight. Among them, GNP is mainly determined by panicle branches and spikelet formation. In this study, we identified a gene affecting

The da1 mutation in wheat increases grain size under ambient and elevated CO2 but not grain yield due to trade‐off between grain size and grain number [PDF]
Plant-Environment Interactions, 2021 Why this research Matters Grain size is potentially yield determining in wheat, controlled by the ubiquitin pathway and negatively regulated by ubiquitin receptor DA1.

Combined Analysis of BSA-Seq Based Mapping, RNA-Seq, and Metabolomic Unraveled Candidate Genes Associated with Panicle Grain Number in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2022 Rice grain yield is a complex and highly variable quantitative trait consisting of several key components, including the grain weight, the effective panicles per unit area, and the grain number per panicle (GNPP). The GNPP is a significant contributor to

Genetic and molecular factors in determining grain number per panicle of rice [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 It was suggested that the most effective way to improve rice grain yield is to increase the grain number per panicle (GN) through the breeding practice in recent decades.

Phytohormone-Mediated Molecular Mechanisms Involving Multiple Genes and QTL Govern Grain Number in Rice [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Increasing the grain number is the most direct route toward enhancing the grain yield in cereals. In rice, grain number can be amplified through increasing the shoot branching (tillering), panicle branching, panicle length, and seed set percentage ...

Wheat Escapes Low Light Stress by Altering Pollination Types
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Although low light stress seriously affects florets fertility and grain number during the reproductive period, crops can be fertilized by heterologous pollen to alleviate the reduction of grain number. However, wheat is strongly autogamous, how to change
