Enhancement of developmental defects in the boron‐deficient maize mutant tassel‐less1 by reduced auxin levels

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Plant responses to deficiencies of the micronutrient boron are diverse and go beyond the well‐characterized function of boron in cell wall crosslinking. To explain these phenotypic discrepancies, hypotheses about interactions of boron with various phytohormones have been proposed, particularly auxin.

TILLER ANGLE CONTROL 1 modulates plant architecture in response to photosynthetic signals

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2018
Light serves as an important environmental cue in regulating plant architecture. Previous work had demonstrated that both photoreceptor-mediated signaling and photosynthesis play a role in determining the orientation of plant organs. TILLER ANGLE CONTROL

Modelling tiller growth and mortality as a sink-driven process using Ecomeristem: implications for biomass sorghum ideotyping.

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2019
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Plant modelling can efficiently support ideotype conception, particularly in multi-criteria selection contexts. This is the case for biomass sorghum, implying the need to consider traits related to biomass production and quality. This

Genetic Diversity of Selected Upland Rice Genotypes (Oryza sativa L.) for Grain Yield and Related Traits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Seventy-seven upland rice genotypes including popular cultivars in Nigeria and introduced varieties selected from across rice-growing regions of the world were evaluated under optimal upland ecology.

Variation of floret fertility in hexaploid wheat revealed by tiller removal

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2015
Highlight In hexaploid wheat, floret primordia number reaches maximum at green anther stage; visible floral degradation may occur at different stages and can be delayed by detillering.

Snow tussocks, chaos, and the evolution of mast seeding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
One hitherto intractable problem in studying mast seeding (synchronous intermittent heavy flowering by a population of perennial plants) is determining the relative roles of weather, plant reserves, and evolutionary selective pressures such as predator ...

Differential coupling of gibberellin responses by Rht-B1c suppressor alleles and Rht-B1b in wheat highlights a unique role for the DELLA N-terminus in dormancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
During the Green Revolution, substantial increases in wheat (Triticum aestivum) yields were realized, at least in part, through the introduction of the Reduced height (Rht)-B1b and Rht-D1b semi-dwarfing alleles.

Performance of winter wheat varieties in white clover living mulch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The choice of variety for agricultural systems with multiple crops may differ from the one used in sole crop because of the changes in environmental conditions brought about by interspecific plant competition. Information about varietal performance under

Variation in carbon isotope discrimination in Cleistogenes squarrosa (Trin.) Keng: patterns and drivers at tiller, local, catchment, and regional scales

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2011
Understanding the patterns and drivers of carbon isotope discrimination in C4 species is critical for predicting the effects of global change on C3/C4 ratio of plant community and consequently on ecosystem functioning and services. Cleistogenes squarrosa

Alternate wetting and drying irrigation maintained rice yields despite half the irrigation volume, but is currently unlikely to be adopted by smallholder lowland rice farmers in Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation can save water while maintaining rice yields, but in some countries its adoption by farmers remains limited.
