Genetic analysis of root traits in maize [PDF]

Agronomie, 1998
In many areas around the world, maize (Zea Mays L.) crops are affected by root lodging. Several authors have previously shown that associations of root and shoot traits enabled the prediction of the resistance of genotypes to root lodging. In this preliminary attempt to understand the genetics of these traits, a set of 100 recombinant inbred lines from

Plant responses to belowground variations along elevational gradients in temperate and tropical climates [PDF]

, 2019
Soil is a hyper-heterogeneous environment, and how plants respond to changes in belowground variations in soil properties and microclimate is poorly understood.

Above- and belowground herbivory jointly impact defense and seed dispersal traits in Taraxacum officinale [PDF]

, 2014
Plants are able to cope with herbivores by inducing defensive traits or growth responses that allow them to reduce or avoid the impact of herbivores. Since above- and belowground herbivores differ substantially in life-history traits, for example feeding

Phenotyping pipeline reveals major seedling root growth QTL in hexaploid wheat [PDF]

, 2015
Seedling root traits of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) have been shown to be important for efficient establishment and linked to mature plant traits such as height and yield.

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Phenotyping, genome‐wide dissection, and prediction of maize root architecture for temperate adaptability

iMeta
Root System Architecture (RSA) plays an essential role in influencing maize yield by enhancing anchorage and nutrient uptake. Analyzing maize RSA dynamics holds potential for ideotype‐based breeding and prediction, given the limited understanding of the ...

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Genetic analysis of root morphological traits in wheat

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2014
Traits related to root architecture are of great importance for yield performance of crop species, although they remain poorly understood. The present study is aimed at identifying the genomic regions involved in the control of root morphological traits in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.).

Comprehensive phenotyping of SKUAST-K released rice varieties reveals significant role of root traits in drought resilience

Discover Agriculture
The North Western Himalayan region, particularly the Kashmir valley, harbors a rich diversity of rice landraces, yet systematic studies on climate resilience are lacking.
