Parental memories shape seeds

Trends in Plant Science, 2009
It is ten years since imprinting was first demonstrated in Arabidopsis, following the realization, five years earlier, that some genetic controls of seed development did not conform to Mendelian inheritance. Sixteen imprinted genes have since been identified in maize and Arabidopsis and these are expressed primarily in the endosperm, which nurtures ...

Bacterial seed endophyte shapes disease resistance in rice

Nature Plants, 2021
Cereal crop production is severely affected by seed-borne bacterial diseases across the world. Locally occurring disease resistance in various crops remains elusive. Here, we have observed that rice plants of the same cultivar can be differentiated into disease-resistant and susceptible phenotypes under the same pathogen pressure.

Shape Control Beyond the Seeds in Gold Nanoparticles

Chemistry of Materials, 2021
In typical seed-mediated syntheses of metal nanocrystals, the shape of the nanocrystal is determined largely by the seed nucleation environment and subsequent growth environment (where “environment...

Heritability of Seed Shape and Seed Size in Soybean

Crop Science, 1997
Round seeds are desirable for food‐type soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] cultivars and an understanding of the heritability of seed shape would benefit the development of these cultivars. The objectives of this study were to estimate heritability of seed shape and seed size by parent‐offspring regression, parent‐offspring correlation, and realized ...

Genome-wide association mapping and candidate gene analysis for seed shape in soybean (Glycine max)

Crop and Pasture Science, 2019
Seed shape (SS) of soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is an important morphological trait that significantly affects the quality of marketable seed. Study of the genetic architecture of SS is important and basic to soybean molecular breeding.

Seed Shape Diversity in families of the Order Ranunculales

, 2019
Seed shape in the order Ranunculales is described with the objective of characterizing the morphological seed types in the families of this order and to establish a correlation between seed shape, plant structure and life style.         Based on previous

Milling Effects on Mustard Seed Shape

Transactions of the ASAE, 1993
Mustard seed is dry-milled during initial processing to reduce its particle size, thereby enhancing liquid uptake. Although most particles are cracked or broken by milling, the size distribution of a milled sample, determined by sieving, may only be slightly broadened. The maximum diameter of some seeds actually increased after milling.

Cold Hardiness and Seed Shape in Maize

Nature, 1949
AT least one mid-Western seed company has asserted that 'round-grade' dent corn (maize) seeds withstand more than 'flat-grade' seeds the cold weather after early spring sowings.
