Abstract An approach to improving radiation use efficiency (RUE) in wheat is screen for variability rates of leaf respiration darkness (Rdark). We used a high-throughput system quantify variation Rdark among diverse range spring genotypes (301 lines) grown two countries (Mexico and Australia) seasons (2017 2018), doing so the relative importance genotype (G) environment (E) influencing variations Rdark. Through careful design, residual (unexplained) represented <10% total observed. Up...
Plants must continuously react to the ever-fluctuating nature of their environment. Repeated exposure stressful conditions can lead priming, whereby prior encounters heighten a plant's ability respond future events. A clear example priming is provided by model plant Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis), in which photosynthetic and photoprotective responses are enhanced following recurring light stress. While there various post-translational mechanisms underpinning photoprotection, an...
