A relation was found between the alkylresoroinols content and the weight of single grains, their specific weight and situation in the ear. In the group of grains with high specific weight (above 1.300 g/cm<sup>3</sup>) the relative alkykesorcinols content proved to be a constant value, whereas the total content was positively correlated ...

The effect of agronomic factors on grain weight and protein content of the grains from different ear positions (top, middle and bottom) in barley cultivars 92-11 and Xiumai-3 was studied. It was shown that grain weight of middle-positioned grains was the

Dormancy in wheat grain (Triticum aestivum L.) : studies on grain-coat pigment formation and abscisic acid content during the development of wheat grain of six genotypes : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Botany at Massey University [PDF]
Dormancy in wheat grain has been associated with red pigmentation of the grain-coats. The development from anthesis to harvest-ripeness of two-white-grained and four red-grained genotypes of varying dormancy was investigated. Grain growth was measured as

Identification and validation of a new grain weight QTL in rice
The genetic control of grain weight (GW) remains poorly understood. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) determining the GW of rice were identified using a natural GW mutant, sgw. Using a segregating population derived from sgw (low GW) and cultivar 9311 ('9311'; indica, high GW), the chromosome segment associated with GW was detected on the short arm of ...

Estimation of productivity indicators of new winter wheat varieties in the steppe Crimea
The main sown areas in the Republic of Crimea are occupied by winter grain crops. The study conducted by Crimean scientists over many years and confirmed in production has shown that productivity of winter grain crops is unstable and varies significantly

Regional Association Analysis of MetaQTLs Delineates Candidate Grain Size Genes in Rice
Molecular mapping studies which aim to identify genetic basis of diverse agronomic traits are vital for marker-assisted crop improvement. Numerous Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) mapped in rice span long genomic intervals with hundreds to thousands of ...

A rule-based functional-structural model of rice considering source and sink functions [PDF]
As a first step towards a generic genotype-phenotype model of rice, we present here a model of the growth and morphology of rice in combination with ecophysiological processes using the technique of functional-structural plant modelling (FSPM) and the ...

Glycine betaine and salicylic acid induced modification in productivity of two different cultivars of wheat grown under water stress [PDF]
A pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the beneficial effect of foliar application of glycine betaine (10mM), grain presoaking in salicylic acid (0.05 M) and their interaction on drought tolerance of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars ...
