OsNLP3 enhances grain weight and reduces grain chalkiness in rice. [PDF]
Grain weight, a key determinant of yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.), is governed primarily by genetic factors, whereas grain chalkiness, a detriment to grain quality, is intertwined with environmental factors such as mineral nutrients. Nitrogen (N) is recognized for its effect on grain chalkiness, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be ...

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

Cytoplasm affects grain weight and filled-grain ratio in indica rice [PDF]
Abstract Background Cytoplasmic effects on agronomic traits -involving cytoplasmic and nuclear genomes of either different species or different cultivars - are well documented in wheat but have seldom been demonstrated in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

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 ...

ENVIRONMENTALAND CHEMICAL STUDIES ON SOME EXTRACTED ACTIVE COMPONENTS OF BARLEY [PDF]
β-Glucan is the effective naturally occurring compound that exists in the grains of Hordeum vulgaris L (barley). β-Glucan is a rich fiber fraction found as glucose polymer in the endosperm cell walls of barley and usually at a level of 2-8 of grain ...

Variability of grain weight per spike in wheat grown in different ecological conditions [PDF]
Variability of grain weight spike-1 was studied in 10 wheat genotypes: 'Ana Morava', 'Julija Mono', 'Gruža', 'Kuna', 'Lasta', 'Balkan', 'Rodna', 'NS Rana 2', 'Partizanka', 'Pobeda', grown over three experimental years under different environmental ...

Identification and Verification of qGS11, a QTL Controlling Grain Size and Heading Date in Rice
Grain size, shape and weight are important factors influencing grain yield and quality of rice. They are mostly determined by grain length (GL) and grain width (GW).
