The efficiency of a durum wheat-winter pea intercrop to improve yield and wheat grain protein concentration depends on N availability during early growth [PDF]
Grain protein concentration of durum wheat is often too low, particularly in low-N-input systems. The aim of our study was to test whether a durum wheat - winter pea intercrop can improve relative yield and durum wheat grain protein concentration in low ...

Principles for Rigorous Design and Application of Synthetic Microbial Communities
SynComs are artificially designed to enable inter‐species metabolic interactions, metabolic division of labor, and ecological interactions that can elicit phenotypes like colonization stability and environmental adaptation. This systematic review explores the processes used to construct SynComs, the assessment of the mechanisms of metabolic interaction

Cytological study on haploid male fertility in maize
Doubled haploid (DH) breeding technology, which relies on haploid genome doubling, is widely used in commercial maize breeding. Spontaneous haploid genome doubling (SHGD), a more simplified and straightforward method, is gaining popularity among maize ...

Behavioral Response of Rhyzopertha dominica, Lesser Grain Borer, to Wheat Volatiles [PDF]
The lesser grain borer is a grain pest that eats and damages grain products such as rice, corn, wheat, and millet (Edde, 2012). The lesser grain borer has a tendency to to reproduce rapidly and explode into big infestations under optimal conditions ...

Penicillium verrucosum occurrence and Ochratoxin A contents in organically cultivated grain with special reference to ancient wheat types and drying practice [PDF]
This study addresses the relationship between the ochratoxigenic strains of Penicillium verrucosum and ochratoxin A (OTA) contents in organically cultivated grain. It included 37 combined, non-dried grain samples from farmers with no drying facilities as

ABSTRACT Precise transgene‐free gene upregulation remains a challenge in crop biotechnology, as conventional enhancers often exceed CRISPR‐mediated knock‐in size constraints and face regulatory hurdles. Here we establish a foundational cross‐species resource of compact transcriptional enhancers developed via STEM‐seq, a high‐throughput screening ...

Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Identification of gibberellins in developing wheat grain. [PDF]
The known gibberellins A15, A17, A19, A20, A24, A25 (tentative), and GA44, and indole-3-acetic acid have been identified in developing wheat grain by GC-MS. In addition five putative new gibberellins were detected. Two of them, GA54 and GA55, have since been established by direct comparison with synthetic specimens, supplied by Professor N.
