Candidate proteins associated with popping expansion capacity of popcorn [PDF]
AbstractThe mechanical resistance of the popcorn pericarp has a positive and direct relationship to its expansion volume. It allows enough time for the endosperm to gelatinize completely before its extravasation. Expansion is a polygenic trait that has been extensively studied.

Estimation and classification of popping expansion capacity in popcorn breeding programs using NIR spectroscopy [PDF]
One of the most important quality traits in popcorn breeding programs is the popping expansion (PE) capacity of the kernel, which is the ratio of the volume of the popcorn to the weight of the kernel. In this study, we evaluated whether near infrared spectroscopy (NIR spectroscopy) could be used as a tool in popcorn breeding programs to routinely ...

Computational Fluid Dynamic simulation of the supersonic CO2 expansion during champagne cork popping [PDF]
Abstract Behind the iconic “pop!" accompanying the uncorking of a champagne bottle hides a gas flow of surprising complexity. Its modeling is made delicate by its supersonic nature, its interaction with the cork stopper, the eminently unsteady character of the flow escaping from the bottle, and the continuous change of the geometry of the ...

Diallel analysis of yield, popping expansion, and southern rust resistance in popcorn lines [PDF]
Ten popcorn inbred lines were crossed in a circulant partial diallel matching scheme (group of lines derived from IAC 112 × group of lines from 'Zaeli'). The hybrids were evaluated in respect to grain yield (GY), popping expansion (PE), and resistance to southern rust (Puccinia polysora, Pp), in randomized block design, with three replications.

Rank-ordering coefficients of variation for popping expansion
The coefficient of variation (CV) has been the most important statistic to determine the precision of experimental errors, but an even classification for guiding popcorn breeders is still lacking for popping expansion. The normality of data from 50 CVs was tested through the Shapiro-Wilk test, and the mean (m), median, standard deviation (SD), maximum ...

Genetic gain for grain yield and popping expansion in full-sib recurrent selection in popcorn
A first cycle of full-sib recurrent selection was conducted in a popcorn base population, with the objective of improving popping expansion and grain yield as recommended in a previous study by Pereira and Amaral Junior (2001). Seventy five full-sib families were obtained and evaluated in a randomized complete block design, with two replications within

Yield and popping expansion components in local popcorn varieties from Southern Brazil
The aim of this study was to evaluate grain yield (GY), popping expansion (PE), popping expansion disregarding the weight of unpopped kernels (PEW), and eleven other agronomic and morphological traits of 14 local popcorn varieties (LPV) from far west of the state of Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil.
