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

PLOS 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.

Dissecting genetic loci affecting grain morphological traits to improve grain weight via nested association mapping [PDF]

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2019
The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for grain morphological traits were identified via nested association mapping and validated in a natural wheat population via haplotype analysis.

Identification of qTGW2, a Minor-Effect QTL Controlling Grain Weight in Rice [PDF]

Agronomy
Grain weight and grain shape are key traits affecting grain yield and quality in rice. In this research, a quantitative trait locus (QTL), qTGW2, that controls 1000-grain weight (TGW), grain length (GL), and grain width (GW) in rice, was fine-mapped ...

The Effect of Grain Position on Genetic Improvement of Grain Number and Thousand Grain Weight in Winter Wheat in North China

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
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.

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

Plant Methods, 2022
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 ...

OsSPL18 controls grain weight and grain number in rice.

Journal of Genetics and Genomics, 2019
Grain weight and grain number are two important traits directly determining grain yield in rice. To date, a lot of genes related to grain weight and grain number have been identified; however, the regulatory mechanism underlying these genes remains largely unknown.

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

Frontiers 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

Frontiers 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 ...
