Improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency Through Overexpression of Alanine Aminotran...
Nitrogen is an essential nutrient for plants, but crop plants are inefficient in the acquisition and utilization of applied nitrogen. This often results in producers over... -
Mapping Agronomic and Quality Traits in Elite Durum Wheat Lines under Differi...
Final grain production and quality in durum wheat are affected by biotic and abiotic stresses. The association mapping (AM) approach is useful for dissecting the genetic control... -
Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci Relating to Flowering Time, Flag Le...
Tetraploid landraces of wheat harbour genetic diversity that could be introgressed into modern bread wheat with the aid of marker-assisted selection to address the genetic... -
A Neural Network Method for Classification of Sunlit and Shaded Components of...
(1) Background: Information rich hyperspectral sensing, together with robust image analysis, is providing new research pathways in plant phenotyping. This combination... -
Effect of Plant Growth Promoting Bacteria on the Growth of Wheat Seedlings Su...
Certain phosphorous solubilizing (PSB) and phosphorous mineralizing (PMB) bacteria may improve plant growth by improving nutrient availability. The aim of this work was to... -
Comparative Genomics and Functional Studies of Wheat BED-NLR Loci
Nucleotide-binding leucine-rich-repeat (LRR) receptors (NLRs) with non-canonical integrated domains (NLR-IDs) are widespread in plant genomes. Zinc-finger BED (named after the... -
Developing a High-Throughput SNP-Based Marker System to Facilitate the Introg...
The genus Aegilops contains a diverse collection of wild species exhibiting variation in geographical distribution, ecological adaptation, ploidy and genome organisation.... -
Novel Sources of Variation in Grain Yield, Components and Mineral Traits Iden...
Salt-affected soils constrain wheat production globally. A wild wheat species, Thinopyrum bessarabicum (Savul. & Rayss) Á. Löve (Poaceae), and its derivatives are tolerant... -
Mutagenesis of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici and Selection of Gain-of-Viru...
Wheat stem rust caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is regaining prominence due to the recent emergence of virulent isolates and epidemics in Africa,... -
CRISPR-Cas9 Multiplex Editing of the α-Amylase/Trypsin Inhibitor Genes to Red...
Wheat and its derived foods are widespread, representing one of the main food sources globally. During the last decades, the incidence of disorders related to wheat has become a... -
Mapping Coeliac Toxic Motifs in the Prolamin Seed Storage Proteins of Barley,...
Wheat gluten, and related prolamin proteins in rye, barley and oats cause the immune-mediated gluten intolerance syndrome, coeliac disease. Foods labelled as gluten-free which... -
The Sulphur Response in Wheat Grain and Its Implications for Acrylamide Forma...
Free (soluble, non-protein) asparagine concentration can increase many-fold in wheat grain in response to sulphur deficiency. This exacerbates a major food safety and regulatory... -
Impacts of G x E x M on Nitrogen Use Efficiency in Wheat and Future Prospects
Globally it has been estimated that only one third of applied N is recovered in the harvested component of grain crops. This represents an incredible waste of resource and the... -
Evidence That Phosphorylation of the α-Subunit of eIF2 Does Not Essentially I...
A mechanism based on reversible phosphorylation of the α-subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2α) has been confirmed as an important regulatory pathway for the... -
Genome Sequence of Fusarium graminearum Strain CML3066, Isolated from a Wheat...
Fusarium graminearum is a global fungal pathogen of wheat and other small grains, causing Fusarium head blight (FHB) disease, also known as wheat scab. We report here the... -
Development of Wheat-Aegilops caudata Introgression Lines and Their Character...
Aegilops caudata L. [syn. Ae. markgrafii (Greuter) Hammer], is a diploid wild relative of wheat (2n = 2x = 14, CC) and a valuable source for new genetic diversity for wheat... -
Examining the Effects of Temperature on Recombination in Wheat
Meiotic recombination plays a crucial role in the generation of new varieties. The effectiveness of recombination is limited by the distribution of crossover events, which in... -
A Co-Expression Network in Hexaploid Wheat Reveals Mostly Balanced Expression...
Polyploidization has played an important role in plant evolution. However, upon polyploidization, the process of meiosis must adapt to ensure the proper segregation of increased... -
Detection of T. urartu Introgressions in Wheat and Development of a Panel of ...
Tritcum urartu (2n = 2x = 14, AuAu), the A genome donor of wheat, is an important source for new genetic variation for wheat improvement due to its high photosynthetic rate and... -
PHI-Nets: A Network Resource for Ascomycete Fungal Pathogens to Annotate and ...
Interactions between proteins underlie all aspects of complex biological mechanisms. Therefore, methodologies based on complex network analyses can facilitate identification of...
