Prediction of Rice Plant Height Using Linear Regression Model by Pyramiding Plant Height-Related Alleles. [PDF]
Although numerous rice plant height-related genes have been cloned and functionally characterized in recent years, a gap between the identified genes and their utilization in breeding still exists. Here, we developed a linear regression model by pyramiding plant height-related alleles to predict rice plant height and confirmed that it can be used in ...

The contribution of photosynthesis traits and plant height components to plant height in wheat at the individual quantitative trait locus level [PDF]
AbstractPlant height is an important agronomic trait for morphogenesis and grain yield formation in wheat. In this study, we performed both normal and multivariate conditional quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses for plant height with spike length, internode number, length of the first internode to the sixth internode from the top during harvest ...

Plant height and hydraulic vulnerability to drought and cold [PDF]
Understanding how plants survive drought and cold is increasingly important as plants worldwide experience dieback with drought in moist places and grow taller with warming in cold ones.

Shoot growth of woody trees and shrubs is predicted by maximum plant height and associated traits [PDF]
1. The rate of elongation and thickening of individual branches (shoots) varies across plant species. This variation is important for the outcome of competition and other plant-plant interactions.

Evaluating Plant Brushing as a Strategy for Height Control in Edible Crop Species [PDF]
Greenhouse growers producing edible crops can encounter specific challenges when optimizing growing conditions. One challenge is soft growth associated with rapid tissue expansion. Soft growth can lead to plants falling over or soft, floppy leaves. These

Global patterns in plant height [PDF]
Summary 1. Plant height is a central part of plant ecological strategy. It is strongly correlated with life span, seed mass and time to maturity, and is a major determinant of a species’ ability to compete for light.

Plant strategies for greatest height: tapering or hollowing
AbstractThe tapered form and hollow cross-section of the stem and trunk of wild plants are rational mechanical approaches because they facilitate the plant simultaneously growing taller for photosynthesis and supporting its own weight. The purpose of this study is to clarify the advantages and disadvantages of tapering and hollowing from the ...

Environmental and Genetic Regulation of Plant Height in Soybean [PDF]
Abstract Shoot architecture is fundamentally crucial to crop growth and productivity. As a key component of shoot architecture, plant height is known to be controlled by both genetic and environmental factors, though specific details remain scarce.

Mapping dynamic QTL for plant height in triticale [PDF]
Plant height is a prime example of a dynamic trait that changes constantly throughout adult development. In this study we utilised a large triticale mapping population, comprising 647 doubled haploid lines derived from 4 families, to phenotype for plant height by a precision phenotyping platform at multiple time points.Using multiple-line cross QTL ...
