Transcriptomic and Physiological Response of Durum Wheat Grain to Short-Term Heat Stress during Early Grain Filling

open access: yesPlants, 2021
In a changing climate, extreme weather events such as heatwaves will be more frequent and could affect grain weight and the quality of crops such as wheat, one of the most significant crops in terms of global food security. In this work, we characterized

Superior grains determined by grain weight are not fully correlated with the flowering order in rice

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2015
Rice panicles are composed of many branches with two types of extreme grains, the superior and the inferior. Traditionally, it has been well accepted that earlier flowers result in superior grains and late flowers generate inferior grains. However, these

Functional Analysis of OsCIPK17 in Rice Grain Filling

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
We used mutant cipk17 and Nipponbare in field experiments to analyze agronomic traits, photosynthetic parameters, transcriptome, and gene expression. The results demonstrated cytoplasmic localization of OsCIPK17, while GUS allogeneic (A. thaliana) tissue-

Genetic analysis of grain weight in wheat [PDF]

open access: yesHeredity, 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.

Performance of the Two-Source Energy Balance (TSEB) Model as a Tool for Monitoring the Response of Durum Wheat to Drought by High-Throughput Field Phenotyping

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The current lack of efficient methods for high throughput field phenotyping is a constraint on the goal of increasing durum wheat yields. This study illustrates a comprehensive methodology for phenotyping this crop's water use through the use of the two ...

Estimation of sink capacity of rice grains: A comparison of calculation methods based on 1000-grain weight and grain projected area

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2023
Accurate estimation of sink capacity in rice (grain number × potential grain size), independent of grain filling, is necessary for considering source – sink interactions. However, how to measure potential grain size is still a matter of debate.

Effect of delayed sowing on grain number, grain weight, and protein concentration of wheat grains at specific positions within spikes

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Delays in sowing have significant effects on the grain yield, yield components, and grain protein concentrations of winter wheat. However, little is known about how delayed sowing affects these characteristics at different positions in the wheat spikes ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Mapping and genetic validation of a grain size QTL qGS7.1 in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019
Grain size is a major determinant of grain weight, which is one of the components of rice yield. The objective o this study was to identify novel, and important quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for grain size and weight in rice.

Characterization of transgenic wheat lines expressing maize ABP7 involved in kernel development

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2023
Wheat is one of the major food crops in the world. Functional validation of the genes in increasing the grain yield of wheat by genetic engineering is essential for feeding the ever-growing global population.
