Grain weight is one of the most important components cereal yield and quality. A clearer understanding physiological molecular determinants this complex trait would provide an insight into potential benefits for plant breeding. In present study, dynamics dry matter accumulation, water uptake, grain size in parallel with expression expansins during growth wheat were analysed. The stabilized content grains showed a strong association final (r2=0.88, P <0.01). length was found to be that best...
The pericarp weight comprises <17 % of wheat grain at harvest. supports the hydration and nutrition both embryo endosperm during early filling. However, studies its association with final have been scarce. This research studied growth dynamics from anthesis onwards relationship to under contrasting plant densities night warming.
Abstract Introduction Lardizabala biternata is a vine endemic to Chile, distributed between 32°S and 40°S. Its sweet edible fruits have historically been harvested by hand from the wild as there are no productive systems for this vine. Herein, we conducted first phenotypic analysis of L. fruits, which includes qualitative quantitative analyses morphological morphometric traits. This baseline development production that could reduce anthropogenic pressure on populations favour ex-situ...
