OsMADS17 simultaneously increases grain number and grain weight in rice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
AbstractDuring the processes of rice domestication and improvement, a trade-off effect between grain number and grain weight was a major obstacle for increasing yield. Here, we identify a critical gene COG1, encoding the transcription factor OsMADS17, with a 65-bp deletion in the 5′ untranslated region (5′ UTR) presented in cultivated rice increasing ...

Genetic and Molecular Factors Determining Grain Weight in Rice [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Grain weight is one of the major factors determining single plant yield production of rice and other cereal crops. Research has begun to reveal the regulatory mechanisms underlying grain weight as well as grain size, highlighting the importance of this research for plant molecular biology. The developmental trait of grain weight is affected by multiple

Carpel size, grain filling, and morphology determine individual grain weight in wheat [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Individual grain weight is a major yield component in wheat. To provide a comprehensive understanding of grain weight determination, the carpel size at anthesis, grain dry matter accumulation, grain water uptake and loss, grain morphological expansion, and final grain weight at different positions within spikelets were investigated in a recombinant ...

Superior grains determined by grain weight are not fully correlated with the flowering order in rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
Rice panicles are composed of many branches with two types of extreme grains, the superior and the inferior. Traditionally, it has been well accepted that earlier flowers result in superior grains and late flowers generate inferior grains. However, these correlations have never been strictly examined in practice.

Control of Thousand-Grain Weight by OsMADS56 in Rice [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2021
Grain weight and size are important traits determining grain yield and influencing grain quality in rice. In a previous study, a quantitative trait locus controlling thousand-grain weight (TGW) in rice, qTGW10-20.8, was mapped in a 70.7 kb region on chromosome 10.

Wheat grain width: A clue for re-exploring visual indicators of grain weight [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Methods, 2021
AbstractMean grain weight (MGW) is among the most frequently measured parameters in wheat breeding and physiology. Although in the recent decades, various wheat grain analyses (e.g. counting, and determining the size, color, or shape features) have been facilitated thanks to the automated image processing systems, MGW estimations has been limited to ...

Quantitative trait loci identification and breeding value estimation of grain weight-related traits based on a new wheat 50K single nucleotide polymorphism array-derived genetic map

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Mining novel and less utilized thousand grain weight (TGW) related genes are useful for improving wheat yield. In this study, a recombinant inbred line population from a cross between Zhongkemai 138 (ZKM138, high TGW) and Chuanmai 44 (CM44, low TGW) was ...

Responses of nitrogen accumulation and translocation in five cytoplasmic hybrid rice cultivars

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2022
To study the difference among cytoplasm at the different nitrogen conditions, a research experiment was conducted using five different cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) hybrid rice with nitrogen levels at N0, N1, N2, and N3; the nitrogen application rates ...

Effect of Foliar Application of Various Nitrogen Forms on Starch Accumulation and Grain Filling of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Under Drought Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Foliar nitrogen (N) fertilizer application at later stages of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) growth is an effective method of attenuating drought stress and improving grain filling.

The effect of foliar application of nutrients and humic acid on grain yield and quality of bread wheat cultivars under drought stress [PDF]

open access: yesتنش های محیطی در علوم زراعی, 2023
IntroductionAbsorption of nutrients from the soil depends on soil moisture, fertilizer application, soil nutrients and other factors. Foliar application of nutrients under water stress is one of the ways to reduce the effect of stress on the quantity and
