Genetic effects determining rice grain weight and grain density

Euphytica, 1992
Increasing grain weight is one means of increasing rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain yields. Selection for increased density of filled grains may offer an approach to increasing rice grain weight. Before rice breeding programs can begin effectively selecting for higher grain density, the nature and amount of the genetic variation present must be evaluated ...

Effect of vernalization on grain fill duration and grain weight in spring wheat

2011
Vernalization response genes are known to contribute indirectly to grain yield by influencing flowering time, number of tillers and spikelets in sensitive wheat genotypes. There has been no report of the effect of vernalization on grain fill duration and grain weight in wheat.

QTL analysis for grain weight in common wheat

Euphytica, 2006
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis for grain weight (GW = 1000 grain weight) in common wheat was conducted using a set of 100 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross ‘Rye Selection 111 (high GW) × Chinese Spring (low GW)’. The RILs and their two parental genotypes were evaluated for GW in six different environments (three locations ...

Weight Determining of Factors Influencing Grain Output Based on Entropy Weight Method [PDF]

Asian Agricultural Research, 2012
This article selects 8 main factors (the number of rural employees, total power of agricultural machinery, effective irrigation area of crops, growing area of grain crops, fertilizer consumption, electricity consumption in rural areas, area affected and area covered) as the factors influencing grain output, and offers the method of determining weight ...

A collaboration worth its weight in grain

Nature, 2016
Interventions to improve crop yields in rural China through collaboration between researchers and farmers illustrate how the goal of increasing global food production can be approached locally. See Letter p.671 Closing the gap between realized and potential crop yields is key to sustainably feeding ...

QTL mapping and correlation analysis for 1000-grain weight and percentage of grains with chalkiness in rice

Journal of Genetics, 2013
The study of 1000-grain weight (TGW) and percentage of grains with chalkiness (PGWC) is very important in rice. In this study, a set of introgression lines (ILs), derived from Sasanishiki/Habataki with Sasanishiki as the recurrent parent, were used to detect correlations and quantitative trait loci (QTL) on TGW and PGWC in two different environments ...

The wall-associated kinase GWN1 controls grain weight and grain number in rice

Theoretical and Applied Genetics
Grain size is a crucial agronomic trait that determines grain weight and final yield. Although several genes have been reported to regulate grain size in rice (Oryza sativa), the function of Wall-Associated Kinase family genes affecting grain size is still largely unknown.
