The variability of yield and baking quality of wheat and suitability for export from Nordic–Baltic conditions

Acta Agriculturae Scandinavica. Section B, Soil and Plant Science, 2020
Nordic conditions necessitate varieties adapted to marginal environments (short vegetation period, winter damages etc.) to reduce environmental influence on yield and quality.

A New Multiple Phenological Spectral Feature for Mapping Winter Wheat

Remote Sensing, 2022
Rapid and accurate mapping of winter wheat using remote sensing technology is essential for ensuring food security. Most of the existing studies have failed to fully characterize the phenological features of winter wheat in mapping, resulting in low ...

Early-season and refined mapping of winter wheat based on phenology algorithms - a case of Shandong, China

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Winter wheat is one of the major food crops in China, and timely and effective early-season identification of winter wheat is crucial for crop yield estimation and food security.

ZSL Orchestrates Synaptonemal Complex Assembly as a Central Region Scaffold to Ensure Synapsis Fidelity and Crossover Control in Polyploid Meiosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A central molecular adaptor, ZSL, is identified that links transverse filaments ZYP1 to central element SCEP1/2 to drive synaptonemal complex assembly in Brassica napus. Loss of ZSL abolishes synaptonemal complex formation, disrupts meiotic chromosome segregation, and markedly increases crossovers, providing mechanistic insight into meiotic fidelity ...

Optimizing biomass use for carbon storage and land use with the OptiBiU model

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimal biomass use in a circular bioeconomy requires a system perspective to guide decision‐making. The Optimizing Biomass Use (OptiBiU) model was developed for this purpose. The model distinguishes among primary biomass production, intermediate products, and biobased products, and incorporates recycling.

Characterization of a new barley greenbug resistance gene Rsg4 in the Chinese landrace CI 2458

The Plant Genome
Barley (Hordeum vulgare) is a climate‐resilient crop widely cultivated in both highly productive and suboptimal agricultural systems, and its ability to adapt to multiple biotic and abiotic stresses has contributed significantly to food security ...

Mapping Winter Wheat with Combinations of Temporally Aggregated Sentinel-2 and Landsat-8 Data in Shandong Province, China

Remote Sensing, 2020
Winter wheat is one of the major cereal crops in China. The spatial distribution of winter wheat planting areas is closely related to food security; however, mapping winter wheat with time-series finer spatial resolution satellite images across large ...

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023
Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Dissecting the genetic basis of fruiting efficiency for genetic enhancement of harvest index, grain number, and yield in wheat

BMC Plant Biology
Background Grain number (GN) is one of the key yield contributing factors in modern wheat (Triticum aestivum) varieties. Fruiting efficiency (FE) is a key trait for increasing GN by making more spike assimilates available to reproductive structures ...
