Impact of Weather Conditions and Farming Systems on Size Distribution of Starch Granules and Flour Yield of Winter Wheat [PDF]
, 2020 The size distribution of wheat-grain starch granules has an impact on the yield of finne flour. The aim of the study was to compare the impact of conventional (mineral fertilizers, pesticides) and organic farming treatments (cover crops, composted cattle

Variations in agronomic and grain quality traits of rice grown under irrigated lowland conditions in West Africa [PDF]
, 2018 Rice breeding in West Africa has been largely skewed toward yield enhancement and stress tolerance. This has led to the variable grain quality of locally produced rice in the region.

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2020 Grain yield improvement in wheat (Triticum aestivum L) requires understanding of the genetic control of grain yield components and other related traits. In this study, a total of 82 and 314 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were associated with grain yield ...

Predicting spring barley yield from variety-specific yield potential, disease resistance and straw length, and from environment-specific disease loads and weed pressure [PDF]
, 2008 For low-input crop production, well-characterised varieties increase the possibilities of managing diseases and weeds. This analysis aims at developing a framework for analyzing grain yield using external varietal information about disease resistance ...

Expression of the CCCH-tandem zinc finger protein gene OsTZF5 under a stress-inducible promoter mitigates the effect of drought stress on rice grain yield under field conditions [PDF]
, 2020 Increasing drought resistance without sacrificing grain yield remains an ongoing challenge in crop improvement. In this study, we report that Oryza sativa CCCH‐tandem zinc finger protein 5 (OsTZF5) can confer drought resistance and increase grain yield ...

Crop plant architecture and grain yields [PDF]
SCIENTIA SINICA Vitae, 2021 Crop plant architecture, which mainly consists of plant height, tiller number, tiller angle, and panicle morphology, is an important agronomic trait that determines grain yields. The domestication or improvement of plant architecture has largely contributed to enhancing grain yield potential.

Grain yield and its components in triticale grown on a pseudogley soil [PDF]
Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2018 A field trial was conducted on an acid pseudogley soil during the 2011/12, 2012/13 and 2013/14 growing seasons to evaluate grain yield and its components in four triticale cultivars ('Favorit', 'Tango', 'Odisej' and 'KG-20').

Effects of inter-varietal diversity, biotic stresses and environmental productivity on grain yield of spring barley variety mixtures [PDF]
, 2012 Varietal seed mixtures tend to increase and stabilize crop yields, yet their application is sparse. Large-scale cultivation of variety mixtures may require a better understanding of how inter-varietal interactions and their interaction with the ...
