Comparative compositions of metabolites and dietary fibre components in dough...
Wholemeal flours from blends of bread wheat, emmer and spelt were processed into bread using yeast-based and sourdough fermentation. The bread wheat flour contained... -
Diffuse water pollution during recent extreme wet-weather in the UK: Environm...
Periods of extreme wet-weather elevate agricultural diffuse water pollutant loads and climate projections for the UK suggest wetter winters. Within this context, we monitored... -
Exploiting genomics to improve the benefits of wheat: Prospects and limitations
Conventional breeding has been immensely successful in increasing crop production to meet the demands of the growing global population, particularly for wheat where production... -
Localisation of iron and zinc in grain of biofortified wheat
The dietary contributions of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) from cereals are determined by concentrations, locations and chemical forms. A genetically biofortified wheat line showed... -
Recoverable resources from pot ale and spent wash from Scotch Whisky production
Scotch Whisky is an important global commodity which generates extensive co-product known as pot ale or spent wash (> 10 L co-product per L whisky). Whilst this is often used... -
The effect of organic carbon content on soil compression characteristics
We investigated the effect of soil organic carbon (SOC) on the consolidation behaviour of soil from two long term field experiments at Rothamsted; the Broadbalk Wheat Experiment... -
Wheat glutenin polymers 1. structure, assembly and properties
The importance of wheat glutenin polymers in determining the processing quality of wheat is generally accepted. Similarly, genetic and molecular studies have provided detailed... -
Progress towards the production of potatoes and cereals with low acrylamide-f...
The presence of acrylamide in foods derived from grains, tubers, storage roots, beans and other crop products has become a difficult problem for the food industry. Here we... -
The location of iron and zinc in grain of conventional and biofortified lines...
Sorghum is an important source of dietary iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) in parts of Africa and India, but there is a need to increase their concentrations to meet dietary... -
Simulation of winter wheat response to variable sowing dates and densities in...
Abstract Crop multi-model ensembles (MME) have proven to be effective in increasing the accuracy of simulations in modelling experiments. However, the ability of MME to capture... -
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;... -
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... -
Cereal asparagine synthetase genes
Asparagine synthetase catalyses the transfer of an amino group from glutamine to aspartate to form glutamate and asparagine. The accumulation of free (nonprotein) asparagine in... -
Using ensemble-mean climate scenarios for future crop yield projections: a st...
Using climate scenarios from only 1 or a small number of global climate models (GCMs) in climate change impact studies may lead to biased assessment due to large uncertainty in... -
Dynamic simulation of management events for assessing impacts of climate chan...
The productivity of permanent temperate cut grasslands is mainly driven by weather, soil characteristics, botanical composition and management. To adapt management to climate... -
Subcellular dynamics studies of iron reveal how tissue‐specific distribution ...
Understanding the mechanisms of iron trafficking in plants is key to enhancing the nutritional quality of crops. Because it is difficult to image iron in transit, we currently... -
N-terminal truncated RHT-1 proteins generated by translational reinitiation c...
The unprecedented wheat yield increases during the Green Revolution were achieved through the introduction of the Reduced height (Rht)-B1b and Rht-D1b semi-dwarfing alleles.... -
Take-All Disease: New Insights into an Important Wheat Root Pathogen
Take-all disease, caused by the fungal root pathogen Gaeumannomyces tritici, is considered to be the most important root disease of wheat worldwide. Here we review the advances... -
The relative abundance of wheat Rubisco activase isoforms is post-transcripti...
AbstractDiurnal rhythms and light availability affect transcription–translation feedback loops that regulate the synthesis of photosynthetic proteins. The CO2-fixing enzyme...
