Effect of high molecular weight glutenin subunit Dy10 on wheat dough properti...
High-molecular-weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GSs) are the most critical grain storage proteins that determine the unique processing quality of wheat. Although it is part of the... -
Enhanced Plant Rooting and Crop System Management for Improved N Use Efficiency
Despite the significant inroads into increasing agricultural productivity in recent decades, nitrogen remains a key limiting factor for crop growth and yield. Though highly... -
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... -
The rise of necrotrophic effectors
Many biotrophic pathogens, which require living plant tissues for colonization, interact with their hosts in a gene-for-gene (GFG) manner whereby plant disease resistance (R)... -
Differentiated function and localisation of SPO11-1 and PRD3 on the chromosom...
During meiosis, DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) occur throughout the genome, a subset of which are repaired to form reciprocal crossovers between chromosomes. Crossovers are... -
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... -
Integration of embryo–endosperm interaction into a holistic and dynamic pictu...
Interaction between the embryo and endosperm affects seed development, an essential process in yield formation in crops such as rice. Signals that mediate communication between... -
Advances in Barley Breeding for Improving Nitrogen Use Efficiency
Crop breeding for high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) or tolerance to low nitrogen fertilization is thought to be an ideal solution to reduce the cost, carbon footprint, and... -
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... -
Localized nutrient supply can facilitate root proliferation and increase nitr...
Soil compaction constrains root growth and crop yield. Previous studies have shown that localized nutrient supply can significantly improve maize plant growth in field... -
Changes in the concentrations and transcripts for gibberellins and other horm...
Abstract Background Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a major source of nutrition globally, but yields can be seriously compromised by water limitation. Redistribution of... -

Variation in the Content and Composition of Tocols in a Wheat Population
Wheat is a well-known source of B vitamins but also contains significant amounts of vitamin E and related tocols, which have a number of positive health benefits. However, there... -
Genetic Diversity in Nitrogen Fertiliser Responses and N Gas Emission in Mode...
Crops assimilate nitrogen (N) as ammonium via the glutamine synthetase/glutamate synthase (GS/GOGAT) pathway which is of central importance for N uptake and potentially... -
Characterisation of Grains and Flour Fractions from Field Grown Transgenic Oi...
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the major staple crops in the world and is used to prepare a range of foods. The development of new varieties with wider variation in... -
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... -
The Effects of Brief Heat During Early Booting on Reproductive, Developmental...
Rising temperatures due to climate change threaten agricultural crop productivity. As a cool-season crop, wheat is heat-sensitive, but often exposed to high temperatures during... -
Plant adaptation to nutrient stress
Mineral nutrients absorbed in the inorganic form are indispensable for plant growth and development. The various processes underlying yield formation in crops such as biomass... -
Adverse Reactions to Wheat or Wheat Components
Wheat is an important staple food globally, providing a significant contribution to daily energy, fiber, and micronutrient intake. Observational evidence for health impacts of... -
Understanding the Relationships between Free Asparagine in Grain and Other Tr...
Since the discovery of acrylamide in food, and the identification of free asparagine as the key determinant of acrylamide concentration in wheat products, our understanding of...
