A dataset of promoter and 5’UTR sequences of homoeo-alleles of 495 wheat genes that contribute to agriculturally important traits in 95 ancestral and commercial wheat cultivars... -
Editorial: State-of-the-Art Technology and Applications in Crop Phenomics
Together with the rise of whole-genome sequencing of many plant species, large-scale and high-throughput plant phenotyping (HTP), as well as associated phenotypic analysis, has... -
What are the regulatory targets for intervention in assimilate partitioning t...
Sucrose utilisation for the synthesis of cellular components involved in growth and development and the accumulation of biomass determines diversity in the plant kingdom;... -
Next Generation dsRNA-Based Insect Control: Success So Far and Challenges
RNA interference (RNAi) is a method of gene silencing where dsRNA is digested into small interfering RNA (siRNA) in the presence of enzymes. These siRNAs then target homologous... -
Post-translational cleavage of HMW-GS Dy10 allele improves the cookie-making ...
Wheat is a major staple food crop worldwide because of the unique properties of wheat flour. High molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs), which are among the most critical... -
The impact of weather and increased atmospheric CO <sub>2</sub> from 1892 t...
Climate change effects on UK winter wheat grain yield are complex: warmer temperature, negative; greater carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentration, positive; but other... -
Genotypic differences in wheat yield determinants within a NAM population bas...
Future grain yield (GY) improvements require the identification of beneficial traits within the context of high yield potential and not just based on the pleiotropic effect of... -
Improving Photosynthetic Metabolism for Crop Yields: What Is Going to Work?
Photosynthesis is an indispensable process that provides the oxygen we breathe, regulates climate, and drives biological processes including crop yields. An important and... -
RNAi suppression of xylan synthase genes in wheat starchy endosperm
The xylan backbone of arabinoxylan (AX), the major cell wall polysaccharide in the wheat starchy endosperm, is synthesised by xylan synthase which is a complex of three subunits... -
Capturing and Selecting Senescence Variation in Wheat
Senescence is a highly quantitative trait, but in wheat the genetics underpinning senescence regulation remain relatively unknown. To select senescence variation and ultimately... -
Wheat Developmental Traits as Affected by the Interaction between Eps-7D and ...
Earliness per se (Eps) genes are important to fine tune adaptation, and studying their probable pleiotropic effect on wheat yield traits is worthwhile. In addition, it has been... -
Effect of Flowering Time-Related Genes on Biomass, Harvest Index, and Grain Y...
Grain yield (YLD) is a function of the total biomass (BM) and of partitioning the biomass by grains, i.e., the harvest index (HI). The most critical developmental stage for... -
Pan-European multi-crop model ensemble simulations of wheat and grain maize u...
The simulated data set described in this paper was created by an ensemble of nine different crop models: HERMES (HE), Simplace<Lintul5,Slim3, FAO-56 ET0> (L5),... -
Rapid Generation and Analysis of a Barley Doubled Haploid Line with Higher Ni...
Creating varieties with high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is crucial for sustainable agriculture development. In this study, a superior barley doubled haploid line (named DH45)... -
Effect of Intake of Food Hydrocolloids of Bacterial Origin on the Glycemic Re...
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition characterized by increased blood glucose levels from dysfunctional carbohydrate metabolism. Dietary intervention can help to prevent and... -
Genomics accelerated isolation of a new stem rust avirulence gene–wheat resis...
Stem rust caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt) is a devastating disease of the global staple crop wheat. Although this disease was largely controlled in... -
Identifying aphid resistance in the ancestral wheat Triticum monococcum under...
AbstractWheat is an economically, socially, and nutritionally important crop, however, aphid infestation can often reduce wheat yield through feeding and virus transmission.... -
Efficient CRISPR/Cas-mediated Targeted Mutagenesis in Spring and Winter Wheat...
AbstractThe CRISPR/Cas technology has recently become a molecular tool of choice for gene function studies in plants as well as crop improvement. Wheat is a globally important... -
Remarkable recent changes in the genetic diversity of the avirulence gene Avr...
Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the fungus Zymoseptoria tritici, is one of the most economically important diseases of wheat. Recently, both factors of a gene-for-gene... -
