Mapping and validation of major quantitative trait loci for kernel length in wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum)

BMC Genetics, 2016
Kernel length is an important target trait in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) breeding programs. However, the number of known quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling kernel length is limited.

Underutilised crops in Europe: An interdisciplinary approach towards sustainable practices

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of a rapidly growing global population and significant climatic and environmental change, there is an urgent need to produce nutritious food in a sustainable manner. Some crops are underutilised in Europe, despite their suitability to local environments, viability for sustainable production and potential to improve diets.

X‐ray micro‐CT imaging to study foliar water uptake mechanisms in plants with contrasting leaf topography

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Formation of an aqueous continuum from the leaf surface to the sub‐stomatal cavity is a key process, affecting the foliar entry of solutes, particles, and pathogens. However, the factors controlling the transition from a water droplet to the formation of a continuous water film remain poorly understood.

Aktywność cytokininowa sześciu odmian Hordeum vulgare L. [Cytokinin activity of six cultivars of Hordeum vulgare L.]

Acta Agrobotanica, 2015
Cytokinin activity was determined in roots, crowns, ears of six varieties of the barley in the tobacco Wisconsin 38 callus tissue test. Analysis was made in early stage of ears.

Large‐scale quantification of stomatal patterning in barley leaves overexpressing epidermal patterning factor 1 reveals differential stomatal density between the adaxial and abaxial surfaces and spatial heterogeneity that impact stomatal function

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Stomatal density varies spatially over the leaf surface and between abaxial and adaxial leaf surfaces, with distribution greatly influencing plant photosynthesis and water use. However, methodological limitations have prevented quantification of spatial heterogeneity and its consequences for gaseous exchange in monocot crops.

Deletion of the gene encoding the magnesium chelatase I subunit resulted in a novel wheat leaf colour mutant

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Leaf colour mutants are ideal germplasm resources for investigating the mechanisms of chlorophyll (Chl) synthesis, chloroplast development and photosynthesis. In this study, we obtained a yellow‐leaf mutant, designated SN288‐2. The variant presented a yellow‐leaf phenotype and halted the development of chloroplasts at the seedling stage, with ...

UV‐B Responsive Flavonoid Synthesis Contributes to Tartary Buckwheat High‐Altitude Adaption

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High‐altitude environments expose plants to increased levels of UV‐B radiation, necessitating the evolution of protective mechanisms to mitigate stress. Buckwheat is a flavonoid‐rich pseudocereal naturally adapted to high‐altitude environments with elevated UV‐B exposure.
