Phosphorylation of the alpha-subunit of plant eukaryotic initiation factor 2 ...
Phosphorylation of the α-subunit of eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2α) and subsequent inhibition of protein synthesis is a major survival response to different stresses in... -
Improving rice photosynthesis and yield through trehalose 6-phosphate signaling
The biosynthetic route for the synthesis of trehalose in plants is through a low-flux pathway that leads to the accumulation of micromolar amounts of trehalose 6-phosphate (T6P)... -
Is bread bad for health?
During recent years there have been several parallel trends in popular books and social media suggesting that the consumption of bread made from ‘modern bread wheat’ is bad for... -
Wheat Glutenin polymers 2. The role of wheat glutenin subunits in polymer for...
The high- and low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits are major contributors to dough strength and elasticity, through their influence on glutenin polymer structure. The study of... -
Arabidopsis HEAT SHOCK FACTOR BINDING PROTEIN is required to limit meiotic cr...
The number of meiotic crossovers is tightly controlled and most depend on pro-crossover ZMM proteins, such as the E3 ligase HEI10. Despite the importance of HEI10 dosage for... -
Global wheat production could benefit from closing the genetic yield gap
Global food security requires food production to be increased in the coming decades. The closure of any existing genetic yield gap (Yig) by genetic improvement could increase... -
A novel light interception trait of a hybrid rice ideotype indicative of leaf...
One of the major challenges facing rice breeding is to produce ideotype or ideal plant architecture (IPA) to improve canopy radiation use efficiency and hence grain yield. The... -
Loss of chromatin remodeler DDM1 causes segregation distortion in Arabidopsis...
Segregation distortion (SD) is common in most genetic mapping experiments and a valuable resource to determine how gene loci induce deviation. Meiotic DNA crossing over and SD... -
Below-ground physiological processes enhancing phosphorus acquisition in plants
Phosphorus (P) is an essential element for crop growth and development. In acid soils, inorganic P (Pi) is immobilised with Fe3+ and Al3+, whereas in calcareous soils, it is... -
Microbially synthesized nanoparticles: aspect in plant disease management
Nanotechnology plays a critical role in agriculture and its associated management strategies. The emergence of plant pathogens (phytopathogens) across various crops has posed a... -
Changes in agricultural climate in South-Eastern England from 1892 to 2016 an...
The long-term increasing trend of annual mean temperature is only one aspect of recent climate change. Other changes in climate, seen in within-year weather patterns relevant to... -
WAKsing plant immunity, waning diseases
Abstract With the requirement to breed more productive crop plants in order to feed a growing global population, compounded by increasingly widespread resistance to pesticides... -
High molecular weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) 1Dx5 is concentrated in small...
The high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) are key determinants of the processing properties of wheat and over-expression of HMW-GS by transgenesis has therefore been... -
Artificial-intelligence tools aim to tame the coronavirus literature
The COVID-19 literature has grown in much the same way as the disease’s transmission: exponentially. The NIH’s COVID-19 Portfolio, a website that tracks papers related to the... -
Characteristics of soil organic matter within an erosional landscape under ag...
The characteristics of soil organic matter (SOM) such as stocks, sources and stability, are important for understanding soil functioning and C cycling in an eroding field. In... -
Stability of farm income: The role of agricultural diversity and agri-environ...
Instability (or variability) in farm income represents a significant challenge for farm management and the design of public policies. Identifying farming practices which can... -
Advances in the understanding of nitrogen (N) uptake by plant roots
Efficient use of nitrogen (N) by plants and particularly crops, is of global importance. In agriculture, high crop yields and protein content depend upon extensive N-inputs,... -
Understanding effects of genotype × environment × sowing window interactions ...
Durum wheat is one of the most important crops in the Mediterranean basin. The choice of the cultivar and the sowing time are key management practices that ensure high yield.... -
Suppression of a BAHD acyltransferase decreases p ‐coumaroyl on arabinoxylan ...
Grass cell walls have hydroxycinnamic acids attached to arabinosyl residues of arabinoxylan (AX), and certain BAHD acyltransferases are involved in their addition. In this... -
Dynamics of dry matter accumulation in internodes indicates source and sink r...
Storage of non-structural carbohydrates (NSC) in internode parenchyma before anthesis functions as a major carbon source for rice grain filling. In this study, two-year field...
