Modeling management of continuous dryland cotton with an intervening winter wheat cover crop in a semiarid climate

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2022
Although winter cover crop residue can mitigate the stresses of dryland production in semi-arid regions, cover crops can also reduce soil moisture and cash crop yields.

Vernalization and photoperiod alleles greatly affected phenological and agronomic traits in bread wheat under autumn and spring sowing conditions

Crop and Environment, 2022
The responses to temperature (vernalization) and day length (photoperiod) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are mainly defined by allelic differences at the respective VRN-1 and PPD-1 loci, which greatly affect wheat phenology and adaptability.

Genotypic capacity of post-anthesis stem reserve mobilization in wheat for yield sustainability under drought and heat stress in the subtropical region

Frontiers in Genetics, 2023
Wheat productivity is severely affected by drought and heat stress conditions worldwide. Currently, stem reserve mobilization (SRM) is receiving increased attention as a trait that can sustain wheat yields under adverse environments.

Multi-Locus GWAS of Quality Traits in Bread Wheat: Mining More Candidate Genes and Possible Regulatory Network

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In wheat breeding, improved quality traits, including grain quality and dough rheological properties, have long been a critical goal. To understand the genetic basis of key quality traits of wheat, two single-locus and five multi-locus GWAS models were ...
