High-throughput estimation of crop traits: A review of ground and aerial phen...
Crop yields need to be improved in a sustainable manner to meet the expected worldwide increase in population over the coming decades as well as the effects of anticipated... -
A modular cloning toolkit for genome editing in plants
CRISPR/Cas has recently become a widely used genome editing tool in various organisms, including plants. Applying CRISPR/Cas often requires delivering multiple expression units... -
Exploring the Role of Cereal Dietary Fiber in Digestion
Increasing the dietary fiber of staple foods such as bread is an attractive way to promote healthy eating in a large part of the population, where dietary fiber consumption is... -
Foliar N Application at Anthesis Stimulates Gene Expression of Grain Protein ...
The major components of wheat storage proteins are gliadins and glutenins, and as they contribute differently to baking quality, a balanced mixture of these components is... -
Effects of Cultivar and Nitrogen Nutrition on the Lipid Composition of Wheat ...
Despite being minor components of flour, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) lipids contribute to grain processing. They are particularly important for bread making, where they adsorb... -
Nutrient Dynamics in Wheat
Nutrients are taken up by plant roots in a regulated manner and are then distributed around the plant according to demand. As the plant develops and matures, requirements will... -
Increasing metabolic potential: C-fixation
Due to the growing world population, crop yields must increase to meet the rising demand. Crop plants also require adaptation to optimize performance in the changing... -
Wheat sample affects growth performance and the apparent metabolisable energy...
The aim of this study was to examine chemical composition, quality characteristics, apparent metabolisable energy (AME) and nutrient utilisation of wheat samples currently... -
Acrylamide: New European Risk Management Measures and Prospects for Reducing ...
Acrylamide (C3H5NO) is a processing contaminant formed from free asparagine and reducing sugars during high-temperature cooking and processing. It is a Group 2A carcinogen, and... -
Crop Biotechnology
Plant molecular biology came to the fore in the early 1980s and there has been tremendous growth in the subject since then. The study of plant genes and genomes, coupled with... -
Effects of Organic and Conventional Crop Nutrition on Profiles of Polar Metab...
The profiles of polar metabolites were determined in wholemeal flours of grain from the Broadbalk wheat experiment and from plants grown under organic and low-input systems to... -
Exploring the potential for top-dressing bread wheat with ammonium chloride t...
The frequency and severity of drought is predicted to rise in many parts of the world. Considering that drought is the main constraint on rain-fed wheat crop production, both...
