Potential of rice tillering for sustainable food production. [PDF]
J Exp Bot, 2023 Tillering, also known as shoot branching, is a fundamental trait for cereal crops such as rice to produce sufficient panicle numbers. Effective tillering that guarantees successful panicle production is essential for achieving high crop yields.

Repeat-length variation in a wheat cellulose synthase-like gene is associated with altered tiller number and stem cell wall composition [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2017 The tiller inhibition gene (tin) that reduces tillering in wheat (Triticum aestivum) is also associated with large spikes, increased grain weight, and thick leaves and stems.

Strigolactones coordinate barley tillering and grain size. [PDF]
J Exp BotThe strigolactone (SL) plant hormone pathway inhibits tiller bud outgrowth. SLs also influence plant height, grain number, and grain size, but it is unclear how these traits are connected. To separate the effects of SLs on plant architecture, grain size,

Diversification of quantitative morphological traits in wheat. [PDF]
Ann BotBackground and Aims The development and morphology of crop plants have been profoundly altered by evolution under cultivation, initially through unconscious selection, without deliberate foresight, and later by directed breeding.

A gene regulatory network for tiller development mediated by Tin8 in maize.
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021 The complex gene regulatory network underlying maize tiller development remains largely unknown. Here we identified two major quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for tiller number, Tin8 on chromosome 8 and the previously known Tb1 on chromosome 1, in a ...

Effect of elevated CO2 and high temperature on seed-set and grain quality of rice [PDF]
, 2012 Hybrid vigour may help overcome the negative effects of climate change in rice. A popular rice hybrid (IR75217H), a heat-tolerant check (N22), and a mega-variety (IR64) were tested for tolerance of seed-set and grain quality to high-temperature stress at

Effect of defoliation height on regrowth of timothy and meadow fescue in the generative and vegetative phases of growth [PDF]
, 2003 Post-defoliation carbohydrate stores, leaf area and the number of active meristems are important factors affecting the subsequent regrowth of grasses. Defoliation height affects the magnitude of all these factors.
