Speed breeding in growth chambers and glasshouses for crop breeding and model...
1.AbstractTo meet the challenge of feeding a growing population, breeders and scientists are continuously looking for ways to increase genetic gain in crop breeding. One way... -
Genetic variation in traits for nitrogen use efficiency in wheat
Crop nutrient and especially nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is both an economically and an environmentally highly desirable trait. It has been estimated that only a third of... -
TEOSINTE BRANCHED1 Regulates Inflorescence Architecture and Development in Br...
The flowers of major cereals are arranged on reproductive branches known as spikelets, which group together to form an inflorescence. Diversity for inflorescence architecture... -
Final grain weight is not limited by the activity of key starch-synthesising ...
Since starch is by far the major component of the mature wheat grain, it has been assumed that variation in the capacity for starch synthesis during grain filling can influence... -
Cell surface immune receptors: the guardians of the plant’s extracellular spaces
Since the original ‘Zigzag model’, several iterations have been proposed to reconcile both the Pattern Triggered Immunity (PTI) and the Effector Triggered Immunity (ETI)... -
Identification of Leaf Promoters for Use in Transgenic Wheat
Wheat yields have plateaued in recent years and given the growing global population there is a pressing need to develop higher yielding varieties to meet future demand. Genetic... -
CRISPR/Cas precision: do we need to worry about off-targeting in plants?
The CRISPR/Cas technology has recently become the tool of choice for targeted genome modification in plants and beyond. Although CRSIPR/Cas offers a rapid and facile way of... -
The use of quantitative imaging to investigate regulators of membrane traffic...
Expansion of gene families facilitates robustness and evolvability of biological processes but impedes functional genetic dissection of signalling pathways. To address this,... -
A spatial temporal analysis of the Fusarium graminearum transcriptome during ...
Fusarium head blight of wheat is one of the most serious and hazardous crop diseases worldwide. Here, a transcriptomic investigation of Fusarium graminearum reveals a new model... -
VERNALIZATION1 controls developmental responses of winter wheat under high am...
Low temperatures are required to regulate the transition from vegetative to reproductive growth via a pathway called vernalization. In wheat, vernalization predominantly... -

A new proteinaceous pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) identified i...
Pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are detected by plant pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), which gives rise to PAMP‐triggered immunity (PTI). We characterized a... -
In vitro fermentability of xylo -oligosaccharide and xylo -polysaccharide fra...
Xylo-oligosaccharides and xylo-polysaccharides (XOS, XPS) produced by autohydrolysis of the fibre from oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) were purified using gel filtration... -
A review of wheat diseases-a field perspective
Wheat is one of the primary staple foods throughout the planet. Significant yield gains in wheat production over the past 40 years have resulted in a steady balance of supply... -
Rht18 Semi-Dwarfism in Wheat is Due to Increased Expression of GA 2-oxidaseA9...
Semidwarfing genes have improved crop yield by reducing height, improving lodging resistance, and allowing plants to allocate more assimilates to grain growth. In wheat (... -

The Coiled-Coil NLR Rph1, Confers Leaf Rust Resistance in Barley Cultivar Sudan
Unraveling and exploiting mechanisms of disease resistance in cereal crops is currently limited by their large repeat-rich genomes and the lack of genetic recombination or... -
Diverging importance of drought stress for maize and winter wheat in Europe
Understanding the drivers of yield levels under climate change is required to support adaptation planning and respond to changing production risks. This study uses an ensemble... -
Characterization of a Wheat Breeders’ Array suitable for high-throughput SNP ...
Targeted selection and inbreeding have resulted in a lack of genetic diversity in elite hexaploid bread wheat accessions. Reduced diversity can be a limiting factor in the...
