Combining yield potential and drought resilience in a spring wheat diversity ...
Pressures of population growth and climate change require the development of resilient higher yielding crops, particularly to drought. A spring wheat diversity panel was... -
Leaf to panicle ratio (LPR): a new physiological trait indicative of source a...
Identification and characterization of new traits with sound physiological foundation is essential for crop breeding and production management. Deep learning has been widely... -
Wheat growth responses to soil mechanical impedance are dependent on phosphor...
Increased mechanical impedance induced by soil drying or compaction causes reduction in plant growth and crop yield. However, how mechanical impedance interacts with nutrient... -
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... -
The contribution of fiber components to water absorption of wheat grown in th...
The water absorption (WA) of white wheat flour is a major factor affecting processing quality, and millers, therefore, process their wheat to achieve the required level.... -
Chronic vascular effects of oat phenolic acids and avenanthramides in pre- or...
Wholegrain consumption is linked to a lower risk of cardiovascular disease. Evidence from randomized controlled trials have established that the consumption of wholegrain oats... -
The case for improving crop carbon sink strength or plasticity for a CO2-rich...
Atmospheric CO2 concentration [CO2] has increased from 260 to 280 μmol mol−1 (level during crop domestication up to the industrial revolution) to currently 400 and will reach... -
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... -
Virus-Mediated Transient Expression Techniques Enable Gene Function Studies i...
Weeds are arguably among the most economically important groups of plant species. They have major agronomic and environmental impacts and affect food security. For winter-cereal... -
Genetic Transformation of Common Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) Using Biolistics
The following protocol describes the genetic transformation of wheat using the BioRad PDS/1000-He particle delivery system. Immature embryos are isolated 12–16 days... -
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... -
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... -
Stress, nutrients and genotype: understanding and managing asparagine accumul...
Plant stress and poor crop management strategies compromise the foundations of food security: crop yield, nutritional quality and food safety. Accumulation of high... -
Genetic variation and heritability of grain protein deviation in European whe...
There is a well-established negative relationship between the yield and the concentration of protein in the mature wheat grain. However, some wheat genotypes consistently... -
Substantial increase in yield predicted by wheat ideotypes for Europe under f...
A substantial increase in food production is needed for global food security. Europe is the largest wheat producer, delivering 35% of wheat globally, but its future genetic... -
Transitions in wheat endosperm metabolism upon transcriptional induction of o...
Cereal grains, including wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), are major sources of food and feed, with wheat being dominant in temperate zones. These end uses exploit the storage... -
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... -
Differential ear growth of two maize varieties to shading in the field enviro...
The interception of irradiation by smog pollution and cloud cover associated with extreme rainfall events has become an increasingly important limiting factor in crop production... -
Time‐intensive geoelectrical monitoring under winter wheat
Several studies have explored the potential of electrical resistivity tomography to monitor changes in soil moisture associated with the root water uptake of different crops....
