Genetic improvements have significantly contributed to wheat production. Five wheat cultivars—widely grown in north China in the 1950s, 1990s, or 2010s—were grown in field experiments conducted in the 2014–2015 and 2015–2016 growing seasons.

Relationships between climate and winter cereal grain quality in Finland and their potential for forecasting [PDF]
Many studies have demonstrated the effects of climate on cereal yield, but there has been little work carried out examining the relationships between climate and cereal grain quality on a national scale.

To increase breeding efficiency and the grain yield potential of wheat, the trade-off between grain number and grain weight should be minimized by: i) improving the balance between the two main yield components or by ii) increasing grain weight potential. This study aimed to evaluate the trade-off between grain weight and grain number and to assess key

Cultivar and environmental effects on protein content and grain weight of malting barley
The protein content and grain weight of 8 barley cultivars were studied at six locations in Zhejiang province. The results showed that there were significant differences in protein content and grain weight among barley cultivars and growing locations. It

Different grain-filling rates explain grain-weight differences along the wheat ear
Thousand grain weight is one of the components determining wheat grain yield. It represents the average value of individual grain weights which depends on position within the ear and on positon within the spikelet. Our objective was to quantify the influences of individual floret anthesis date, of carpel weight at anthesis and of rate and duration of ...

Variation in the grain properties of maize hybrids with different grain hardness characteristics and their response to nitrogen fertilizer in terms of milling quality : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science (Seed Technology) at Massey University [PDF]
The proportion of grits and flour produced during the dry milling of maize (Zea mays L.) grain is related to the ratio of hard to soft endosperm. The quality standards required vary widely with different end uses, and for dry milling a hybrid with a ...
