The Effect of Photoperiod Genes and Flowering Time on Yield and Yield Stability in Durum Wheat

Plants, 2020
This study analysed the effect of flowering time as influenced by photoperiod sensitivity genes on yield and yield stability in durum wheat. Twenty-three spring genotypes harbouring different allele combinations at Ppd-A1 and Ppd-B1 were grown in 15 ...

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

Journal 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

Whole-grain foods and chronic disease: evidence from epidemiological and intervention studies [PDF]

, 2015
Cereal-based foods are key components of the diet and they dominate most food-based dietary recommendations in order to achieve targets for intake of carbohydrate, protein and dietary fibre.

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

Frontiers 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 ...

Identification through fine mapping and verification using CRISPR/Cas9-targeted mutagenesis for a minor QTL controlling grain weight in rice

TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik, 2020
Key message A minor QTL for grain weight in rice, qTGW1.2b , was fine-mapped. Its casual gene OsVQ4 was confirmed through CRISPR/Cas9-targeted mutagenesis, exhibiting an effect that was larger than the original QTL effect.

Effect of soil applied zinc sulphate on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown on a calcareous soil in Pakistan [PDF]

, 2008
A field experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of soil application of zinc fertilizer on yield and yield components of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Inqlab 91) grown on calcareous soil in Pakistan.

Identification and Verification of qGS11, a QTL Controlling Grain Size and Heading Date in Rice

Agriculture, 2022
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).

Pericarp growth dynamics associate with final grain weight in wheat under contrasting plant densities and temperature.

Annals of Botany, 2020
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The pericarp weight comprises less than 17 % of wheat grain weight at harvest. The pericarp supports the hydration and nutrition of both the embryo and endosperm, during early grain filling.

Identification and allele mining of new candidate genes underlying rice grain weight and grain shape by genome-wide association study

BMC Genomics, 2020
Background Grain weight and grain shape are important agronomic traits that affect the grain yield potential and grain quality of rice. Both grain weight and grain shape are controlled by multiple genes.
