QTL‐seq for rapid identification of candidate genes for 100‐seed weight and root/total plant dry weight ratio under rainfed conditions in chickpea [PDF]
SummaryTerminal drought is a major constraint to chickpea productivity. Two component traits responsible for reduction in yield under drought stress include reduction in seeds size and root length/root density. QTL‐seq approach, therefore, was used to identify candidate genomic regions for 100‐seed weight (100SDW) and total dry root weight to total ...

Electrical capacitance as a predictor of root dry weight in shrub willow (Salix; Salicaceae) parents and progeny. [PDF]
Premise of the study:Root biomass is an important trait often disregarded in woody perennial selection due to the challenge and expense of accurately and efficiently measuring large populations. In this study, we aim to develop a simple method that can predict root dry weight within a diverse shrub willow (Salix) breeding population representing ...

ABSTRACTDirect planting (i.e. the planting of seed roots) can reduce the labor requirements of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.) cultivation. To broaden the breeding material for high dry matter productivity in direct planting, root dry matter content (DMC) and root dry matter weight per hill (DMW) were compared under both direct planting and ...
