Could large‐scale silicon supplementation of crop‐lands mitigate the impacts of climate change?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Intervention strategies that involve supplementing crop‐lands with silicon have significant scope for carbon capture and drought mitigation, offering wide‐ranging societal impacts. These include contributing to decarbonisation goals, enhancing food security, providing economic benefits and reducing environmental damage associated with intensive ...

Participatory assessment of minor crops: A situated study on hulled wheats

Quantitative Plant Biology
Expanding crop diversity is essential to address the imminent challenges of agriculture. This is especially true for organic farming, which relies on locally adapted species and varieties.

Inheritance of leaf angle in Triticum aestivum L. [PDF]

Euphytica, 1976
A 6×6 diallel was prepared to study the inheritance of leaf angle in T. aestivum L. Genetic analysis in terms of diallel cross parameters and graphic analysis indicated the control of additive gene effects in the expression of this character.

Wheat breeding approaches for designing wheat to thrive in a warmer world

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Wheat is a vital food crop, accounting for approximately 20% of daily calories and protein consumed worldwide. However, modern‐day wheat is under pressure from global change. The improvement rate of wheat yields is not keeping up with the demand of our growing population. Furthermore, abiotic and biotic stressors are becoming more prevalent. This paper

GENES FOR DWARFNESS IN WHEAT, TRITICUM AESTIVUM L

Genetics, 1973
ABSTRACT The genetic control of plant height was studied in crosses of four spring wheats involving the standard height variety Ramona 50 and short-statured selections Olesen, D6301, and D6899. Data from parent, F1, F2, and F3 populations indicated that four independently segregating loci account for most of the differences among the ...

A framework linking silicon fertilisation, plant silicification and soil carbon cycling

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital for soil health, food security, and climate change mitigation. We reviewed how silicon (Si) fertilisers, commonly used to improve plant health, may also influence SOC dynamics. We developed a framework linking Si and SOC and discussed the possibility of Si‐mediated plant changes contributing to SOC sequestration.

Sources of nitrogen for winter wheat in organic cropping systems [PDF]

, 2013
In organic cropping systems, legumes, cover crops, residue incorporation, and manure application are used to maintain soil fertility, but the contributions of these management practices to soil nitrogen (N) supply remain obscure.
