Plant Production ScienceSpikelet number per unit area is the most important yield component of rice (Oryza sativa L.). While spikelet number in rice is often related to total N content in whole plant, several studies have reported that it is more strongly correlated with dry ...

The impact of post-anthesis nitrogen and water availability on yield formation of winter wheat
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2012 The effects of irrigation regimes (full irrigation and water-withholding at anthesis) and post-anthesis nitrogen supplies (LN: 0, MN: 20 and HN: 40 kg N/ha) on grain yield and its components in winter wheat were studied, with attention to biomass gain by

A natural allele of TAW1 contributes to high grain number and grain yield in rice
The Crop Journal, 2021 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 ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Vacuolar H+‐ATPase (V‐ATPase) is a multisubunit rotary proton pump that acidifies intracellular compartments. Using elastic network models, we identified conserved hinge residues that govern its large‐scale functional motions. We show that intrinsically encoded ‘soft modes’ drive critical functional transitions, including rotary catalysis and ...

MOLECULAR MARKER ANALYSIS OF SPIKE FERTILITY INDEX AND RELATED TRAITS IN A BREAD WHEAT RECOMBINANT INBRED LINE POPULATION [PDF]
BAG. Journal of Basic and Applied Genetics, 2019 Spike fertility index (SF) has been well established as an ecophysiological trait related to grain number per unit area and a promising selection target in wheat breeding programs. Scarce information on the molecular basis of SF is available thus far. In

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Drug resistance limits treatment success in a subset of lung cancers driven by ROS1 gene alterations. Using patient‐derived cells and computer simulations, we studied three key mutations and how they affect five targeted drugs. The mutations reduced drug effectiveness in different ways by altering protein structure and behavior.

The impact of source restriction on yield formation of corn (Zea mays L.) due to water deficiency
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2010 To understand the mechanisms causing yield limitations in defoliated plants subjected to water deficiency, the experiments were laid out as a randomized complete block design with split-plot arrangement.

Genes Impacting Grain Weight and Number in Wheat (Triticum aestivum L. ssp. aestivum)
Plants, 2022 The primary goal of common wheat (T. aestivum) breeding is increasing yield without negatively impacting the agronomic traits or product quality. Genetic approaches to improve the yield increasingly target genes that impact the grain weight and number ...

Natural variation in MORE GRAINS 1 regulates grain number and grain weight in rice
Journal of Integrative Plant BiologyABSTRACTGrain yield is determined mainly by grain number and grain weight. In this study, we identified and characterized MORE GRAINS1 (MOG1), a gene associated with grain number and grain weight in rice (Oryza sativa L.), through map‐based cloning. Overexpression of MOG1 increased grain yield by 18.6%–22.3% under field conditions.
