Drought stress affects the protein and dietary fiber content of wholemeal whe...
Wild relatives of wheat, such as Aegilops spp. are potential sources of genes conferring tolerance to drought stress. As drought stress affects seed composition, the main goal... -
Comparison of the dietary fibre composition of old and modern durum wheat (Tr...
It has been suggested that intensive breeding has led to decreased contents of health-promoting components in modern wheats. We therefore compared the contents and compositions... -
Scalable Database Indexing and Fast Image Retrieval Based on Deep Learning an...
Digitalisation has opened a wealth of new data opportunities by revolutionizing how images are captured. Although the cost of data generation is no longer a major concern, the... -
Non-canonical fungal G-protein coupled receptors promote Fusarium head blight...
Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is the number one floral disease of cereals and poses a serious health hazard by contaminating grain with the harmful mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON).... -
Climate change impact and adaptation for wheat protein
Wheat grain protein concentration is an important determinant of wheat quality for human nutrition that is often overlooked in efforts to improve crop production. We tested and... -

Phosphopantetheinyl transferase (Ppt)-mediated biosynthesis of lysine, but no...
Zymoseptoria tritici is the causal agent of Septoria tritici blotch (STB) disease of wheat. Z. tritici is an apoplastic fungal pathogen, which does not penetrate plant cells at... -
Opposite fates of the purine metabolite allantoin under water and nitrogen li...
The metabolite allantoin is an intermediate of the catabolism of purines (components of nucleotides) and is known for its housekeeping role in nitrogen (N) recycling and also... -
Dissecting Wheat Grain Yield Drivers in a Mapping Population in the UK
Improving crop yields arises as a solution to ensure food security in the future scenarios of a growing world population, changes in food consumption patterns, climate change,... -
Foliar N application at anthesis alters grain protein composition and enhance...
Wheat is the second biggest staple crop worldwide and is mainly consumed in the form of baked goods, requiring a specific flour quality. Grain protein concentration (GPC) is an... -
Construction of a network describing asparagine metabolism in plants and its ...
A detailed network describing asparagine metabolism in plants was constructed using published data from Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) maize (Zea mays), wheat (Triticum... -
Drought tolerance during reproductive development is important for increasing...
Drought stress during reproductive development could drastically reduce wheat grain number and yield, but quantitative evaluation of such an effect is unknown under climate... -
RNA Catabolites Contribute to the Nitrogen Pool and Support Growth Recovery o...
Turn-over of RNA and catabolism of nucleotides releases one to four ammonia molecules; the released nutrients being reassimilated into primary metabolism. Preliminary evidence... -
Foxtail mosaic virus: A Viral Vector for Protein Expression in Cereals
Rapid and cost-effective virus-derived transient expression systems for plants are invaluable in elucidating gene function and are particularly useful in plant species for which... -
Beyond the one-way ANOVA for ’omics data
With ever increasing accessibility to high throughput technologies, more complex treatment structures can be assessed in a variety of ’omics applications. This adds an extra... -
Genetic variation in traits for nitrogen use efficiency in wheat
Crop nutrient and especially nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is both an economically and an environmentally highly desirable trait. It has been estimated that only a third of... -
Cell surface immune receptors: the guardians of the plant’s extracellular spaces
Since the original ‘Zigzag model’, several iterations have been proposed to reconcile both the Pattern Triggered Immunity (PTI) and the Effector Triggered Immunity (ETI)... -
Identification of Leaf Promoters for Use in Transgenic Wheat
Wheat yields have plateaued in recent years and given the growing global population there is a pressing need to develop higher yielding varieties to meet future demand. Genetic... -
CRISPR/Cas precision: do we need to worry about off-targeting in plants?
The CRISPR/Cas technology has recently become the tool of choice for targeted genome modification in plants and beyond. Although CRSIPR/Cas offers a rapid and facile way of...
