Increasing effective panicle number per plant (EPN) is one approach to increase yield potential in rice. However, molecular mechanisms underlying EPN remain unclear. In this study, we integrated map-based cloning and genome-wide association analysis to identify the EPN4 gene, which is allelic to NARROW LEAF1 (NAL1).

OsSPL18 controls grain weight and grain number in rice
Grain weight and grain number are two important traits directly determining grain yield in rice. To date, a lot of genes related to grain weight and grain number have been identified; however, the regulatory mechanism underlying these genes remains largely unknown.

Rice is one of the leading cereal crops that consumed over half of the world’s population. The number of grains per panicle is the main trait to decide grain yield potential of rice. Rice germplasm have rich diversity for panicle related trait.

A natural allele of TAW1 contributes to high grain number and grain yield in rice
Abstract Grain number per panicle (GNP) is a complex trait controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTL), directly determining grain yield in rice. Identifying GNP-associated QTL is desirable for increasing rice yield. A rice chromosome segment substitution line (CSSL), F771, which showed increased panicle length and GNP, was identified in a set of ...

Dissecting the trade-off of grain number and size in wheat
Principal component and meta-QTL analyses identified genetic loci affecting the trade-off of wheat grain number and size, which could provide opportunities to optimize local breeding strategies for further yield improvement. Grain yield of wheat is complex, and its physiological and genetic bases remain largely unknown.

Studying germplasm collection accessions of naked oats
Background. The breeding value of accessions from the VIR collection can be estimated only under specific climate and soil conditions. Studying such accessions helps to include them in the breeding process.Materials and methods.

The Effect of Photoperiod Genes and Flowering Time on Yield and Yield Stability in Durum Wheat
This study analysed the effect of flowering time as influenced by photoperiod sensitivity genes on yield and yield stability in durum wheat. Twenty-three spring genotypes harbouring different allele combinations at Ppd-A1 and Ppd-B1 were grown in 15 ...
