GENES FOR DWARFNESS IN WHEAT, TRITICUM AESTIVUM L

open access: yesGenetics, 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

open access: yesPLANTS, 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]

open access: yes, 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.

Azole antifungal contaminants disrupt mycorrhizal function and risk agricultural sustainability

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global food production is increasingly threatened by soil degradation, climate change and the rising costs of synthetic fertilisers. Circular agriculture, which promotes resource reuse, is a promising solution, but using treated wastewater and biosolids in farming introduces risks from emerging contaminants like pharmaceutical residues.

Fatty acid composition of corn and wheat plant shoots under the action of sali­­cy­late in drought conditions

open access: yesБіологічні студії, 2020
Background. Salicylic acid is a phenolic compound of natural plant origin with hormonal properties. Salicylic acid is involved in the formation of plant resistance to stressors of biotic and abiotic nature.

Absorption and Bio-Transformation of Selenium Nanoparticles by Wheat Seedlings (Triticum aestivum L.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Elemental selenium is one of the dominant selenium species in soil, but the mechanism of its uptake by plants is still unclear. In this study, nanoparticles of elemental selenium (SeNPs) with different sizes were prepared, and their uptake and ...

Ancient Wheat Species Can Extend Biodiversity of Cultivated Crops [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Wheat genetic resources may be grown in organic farming systems or in less favourable areas for bread wheat species. Characteristics of hulled wheat species (23 varieties of einkorn, emmer wheat, spelt wheat) were studied and evaluated within a two-year ...

Gibberellins and heterosis of plant height in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2007
Abstract Background Heterosis in internode elongation and plant height are commonly observed in hybrid plants, and higher GAs contents were found to be correlated with the heterosis in plant height. However, the molecular basis for the increased internode elongation in hybrids is unknown.

Increased temperature and drought do not threaten the mycelium of Tuber melanosporum in Mediterranean regions

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Drought and high temperatures are expected to increase in Europe, in particular in Mediterranean regions, where black truffle (Tuber melanosporum Vittad.) is mainly harvested. This fungus, living in symbiotic ectomycorrhizal association with trees, is important in forest ecosystems and agricultural diversification.
