Annals of Botany, 1987 Effects of the environment on shoot survival were studied in winter wheat cv. Avalon grown in microplots at a density of 247 plants m−2. The incident radiation and mean temperature were altered during one of three periods of between 14 and 29 d duration, the first (P1) starting at the end of tiller production and the last (P3) finishing near the end of

Genetic gain in grain yield and main agronomic traits of winter wheat during the past 90 years in Pannonian plain [PDF]
Selekcija i Semenarstvo, 2022 This study aimed to quantify the changes in grain yield and main agronomic traits in winter wheat cultivars registered during the past 90 years . A field trial with 18 winter wheat cultivars registered from 1930 to 2016 was conducted at the experimental ...

GW10, a Member of P450 Subfamily Regulates Grain Size and Grain Number in Rice [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2021 Abstract Grain size and grain number play extremely important roles in rice grain yield. Here, we identify GW10 , which encodes a P450 subfamily protein and controlls grain size and grain number by using Lemont ( tropical japonica ) as donor parent and HJX74 ( indica ) as recipient parent. The GW10 locus was mapped into a 20.1 kb region

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

SMALL GRAIN 11 Controls Grain Size, Grain Number and Grain Yield in Rice [PDF]
Rice, 2016 Grain size is one of key agronomic traits that determine grain yield in rice. Several regulators of grain size have been identified in rice, but the mechanisms that determine grain size and yield remain largely unknown.Here we characterize a small grain (smg11) mutant in rice, which exhibits small grains, dense panicles and the increased number of ...

Identification and Validation of Quantitative Trait Loci for Grain Number in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Agronomy, 2020 Grains number is one of the most important agronomic traits in the determination of rice productivity. To explore the underlying genetic basis of grain number in rice, quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis was performed using three recombinant inbred ...
