Overexpression of a methyl-CpG-binding protein gene OsMBD707 leads to larger tiller angles and reduced photoperiod sensitivity in rice

BMC Plant Biology, 2021
Background Methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) proteins play important roles in epigenetic gene regulation, and have diverse molecular, cellular, and biological functions in plants.

Improvements in Plant Morphology Facilitating Progressive Yield Increases of japonica Inbred Rice since the 1980s in East China

Agriculture, 2021
Grain yield was greatly increased during the genetic improvement of japonica inbred rice since the 1980s in Jiangsu, east China; thus, an improved plant morphology should be expected, considering that plant morphology is a decisive factor determining ...

Spatiotemporal Resolved Leaf Angle Establishment Improves Rice Grain Yield via Controlling Population Density

iScience, 2020
Summary: Leaf angle is mainly determined by the lamina joint (LJ) and contributes to ideal crop architecture for high yield. Here, we dissected five successive stages with distinct cytological features of LJs spanning organogenesis to leaf angle ...

Genetic Basis of Tillering Angle from Other Plants to Wheat: Current Progress and Future Perspectives

Plants
Plant architecture is an important agronomic trait that impacts crop yield. The tiller angle is a critical aspect of the plant’s structural organization, which is influenced by both internal and external factors.

OsHOX1 and OsHOX28 Redundantly Shape Rice Tiller Angle by Reducing HSFA2D Expression and Auxin Content1

Plant Physiology, 2020
Two homeodomain-leucine zipper genes shape tiller angle of rice by influencing lateral asymmetric distribution of the plant hormone auxin. Tiller angle largely determines plant architecture, which in turn substantially influences crop production by ...

Screening for Sugarcane Root Phenes Reveals That Reducing Tillering Does Not Lead to an Increased Root Mass Fraction

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Sugarcane root systems are poorly studied and understood due to the perennial nature, tall stature, and the long cropping cycle. Whilst some field studies gave insights into sugarcane root traits, there is no detailed description of root and root system ...

Effect of nitrogen fertilization on structure and tillering dynamics of Piata palisade grass during the deferment period

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2019
Nitrogen fertilization can increase the appearance of new tillers, which can improve the structure of deferred sward, since the deferral period is not long.
