Winter oilseed rape and winter wheat growth prediction using remote sensing methods

Plant, Soil and Environment, 2015
Remote sensing is often used for yield prediction as well as for crop monitoring. This paper describes how Landsat satellite data can be used to derive a growth model calculated from normalised difference vegetation index that can predict winter wheat ...

Nutritional composition of pollen stores in managed bees across European agro‐ecosystems reveals species‐specific differences but limited pesticide effects

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.
In the pollen stores of three bee species deployed across 128 European sites, bumble bees harboured lower lipid content and higher protein‐to‐lipid ratios than honey bees and mason bees. Toxicity‐weighted pesticide risk did not alter protein‐to‐lipid ratios, but higher risk was associated with reduced protein and lipid content in the pollen stores of ...

Dehydration‐driven organization of metabolites into NaDES‐like assemblies in orthodox seeds

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Desiccation tolerance in plants, especially during orthodox seed dehydration, relies on compatible solute accumulation, complex molecular mechanisms, and intermolecular organizations that remain poorly understood. We combined metabolite profiling, mass spectrometry imaging, and electrospray and cold‐spray ionization mass spectrometry to ...

Response of imidazolinone-tolerant volunteer oilseed rape to herbicides and herbicide mixtures used for broadleaved weed control in sugar beet

Julius-Kühn-Archiv, 2012
Due to a higher proportion of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) in sugar beet rotations, volunteer oilseed rape can occur in increased numbers in subsequent crops.

Capturing sequence variation among flowering-time regulatory gene homologues in the allopolyploid crop species Brassica napus

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Flowering, the transition from the vegetative to the generative phase, is a decisive time point in the lifecycle of a plant. Flowering is controlled by a complex network of transcription factors, photoreceptors, enzymes and miRNAs.

Bacillus based biocontrol on Brassica [PDF]

, 2008
Many bacterial strains have been shown to mediate protection to biotic stress and promote growth of plants. Different bacteria can mediate protection in different ways e.g. by inhibition, competition or increasing plant resistance.

Beyond Starch: Towards a Scalable Potato Platform for Molecular Farming

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Re‐engineering potato as a biosafe and host‐optimised platform for plant molecular farming by integrating intrinsic biological traits with targeted engineering strategies. ABSTRACT Thirty‐five years after the first recombinant protein was produced in potato and 30 years after clinical trials of edible vaccines from its tubers, the crop is being ...

Nitrogen deficiency impacts on leaf cell and tissue structure with consequences for senescence associated processes in Brassica napus [PDF]

, 2016
International audienceImprovement of nutrient use efficiency is a major goal for several crop plants, especially Brassica napus. Indeed, the low nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in this crop results in negative economic and ecological consequences.

The Transcription Factor OsWRKY64 Interacts With OsART1 to Positively Regulate Al Resistance in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
A proposed working model illustrating the cooperative regulation of Al tolerance by OsWRKY64 and OsART1 in rice. Under Al stress conditions in acidic soil, the transcription factor OsART1 directly binds to the promoter of OsWRKY64 to activate its transcription. The synthesized OsWRKY64 protein then physically interacts with OsART1 in the nucleus.

Dynamics of selenium uptake and metabolism of organic selenium species in the leaves and seeds of Brassica napus L.

Agricultural and Food Science, 2018
The essential micronutrient selenium (Se) is retained better in animal and human tissues in its organic forms while nonprotein selenoamino acids, such as selenomethylselenocysteine (SeMetSeCys), are considered as functional organic Se species. We studied
