Genetic analysis of grain weight in wheat [PDF]
Heredity, 1986 The reciprocal monosomic analysis (RMA) technique of intervarietal chromosome manipulation was used to investigate the genetic control of grain weight in two varieties of wheat (Spica and Chinese Spring). The method enabled major genetic differences between the two varieties for this quantitative character to be assigned to individual chromosomes.

The Role of Whole Grains in Body Weight Regulation [PDF]
Advances in Nutrition, 2012 Whole grain (WG)-rich diets are purported to have a variety of health benefits, including a favorable role in body weight regulation. Current dietary recommendations advocate substituting WG for refined grains (RG), because many of the beneficial bioactive components intrinsic to WG are lost during the refining process.

Reinvestigation of THOUSAND-GRAIN WEIGHT 6 grain weight genes in wheat and rice indicates a role in pollen development rather than regulation of auxin content in grains [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2021 Phylogenetic and expression analyses of grain weight genes TaTGW6 and OsTGW6 and investigation of substrate availability indicate TGW6 does not regulate auxin content of grains but may affect pollen development. The THOUSAND-GRAIN WEIGHT 6 genes (TaTGW6 and OsTGW6) are reported to result in larger grains of wheat and rice by reducing production of ...
