Trade-off between grain weight and grain number and key traits for increasing potential grain weight in CIMCOG population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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

Plant Density Effect on Grain Number and Weight of Two Winter Wheat Cultivars at Different Spikelet and Grain Positions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
In winter wheat, grain development is asynchronous. The grain number and grain weight vary significantly at different spikelet and grain positions among wheat cultivars grown at different plant densities.

Different grain-filling rates explain grain-weight differences along the wheat ear [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2018
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 ...

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.

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 ...

Natural allelic variation in GRAIN SIZE AND WEIGHT 3 of wild rice regulates the grain size and weight

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2023
Abstract Grain size is important for yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Although many genes involved in grain size have been isolated, few can be used in breeding due to their interactions and phenotypic effects. Here, we describe natural variation in the granule-type quantitative trait locus GRAIN SIZE AND WEIGHT 3 (GSW3) located on ...
