This article comments on: Beechey-Gradwell Z, Cooney L, Winichayakul S, Andrews M, Hea SY, Crowther T, Roberts N. 2020. Storing carbon in leaf lipid sinks enhanced perennial... -
Sugar sensing responses to low and high light in leaves of the C4 model grass...
Abstract ABSTRACT :Although sugar regulate photosynthesis, the signalling pathways underlying this process remain elusive, especially for C4 crops. To address this knowledge... -
A carbohydrate-binding protein, B-GRANULE CONTENT 1, influences starch granul...
Abstract In Triticeae endosperm (e.g. wheat and barley), starch granules have a bimodal size distribution (with A- and B-type granules) whereas in other grasses the endosperm... -
Linking fundamental science to crop improvement through understanding source ...
Understanding processes in sources and sinks that contribute to crop yields has taken years of painstaking research. For crop yield improvement, processes need to be understood... -
