Perenniality, more than genotypes, shapes biological and chemical rhizosphere composition of perennial wheat lines [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Perennial grains provide various ecosystem services compared to the annual counterparts thanks to their extensive root system and permanent soil cover. However, little is known about the evolution and diversification of perennial grains rhizosphere and ...

Development of Perennial Wheat Through Hybridization Between Wheat and Wheatgrasses: A Review
Engineering, 2018 Wheatgrasses (Thinopyrum spp.), which are relatives of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), have a perennial growth habit and offer resistance to a diversity of biotic and abiotic stresses, making them useful in wheat improvement. Many of these desirable traits

Unveiling the root–rhizosphere environment of perennial wheat: a metabolomic perspective [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground Perennial grain roots grow continuously, enhancing soil carbon sequestration and forming a “holobiont” with the microbiome, essential for nutrient acquisition and stress resilience.

Exploring the rhizosphere of perennial wheat: potential for plant growth promotion and biocontrol applications [PDF]
Scientific ReportsPerennial grains, which remain productive for multiple years, rather than growing for only one season before harvest, have deep, dense root systems that can support a richness of beneficial microorganisms, which are mostly underexplored.

Prospect of Perennial Wheat in Agro-ecological System
Procedia Environmental Sciences, 2011 AbstractThe development of perennial crops through breeding would help deal with the multiple issues involving environmental conservation and food security in a world of shrinking resources. Perennial wheat offers a new solution to the long-standing problems of soil erosion and degradation associated with conventional annual small-grain cropping ...

Effects of long-term tillage on soil nitrogen transformation, nitrogen fractions, and wheat yield [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceThe response of soil nitrogen (N) transformation processes and N supply capacity to tillage practices is crucial for reducing soil N loss and promoting sustainable agricultural development. However, the comprehensive research and driving mechanism of how

Seasonal root growth and dry matter partitioning in perennial wheat
Plant Production SciencePerennial wheats produced grain for up to 4 years in southern Australia, but quantitative data are lacking on dry matter (DM) allocation above- and below-ground over regrowth cycles.
