Effect of stem structural characteristics and cell wall components related to stem lodging resistance in a newly identified mutant of hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
In wheat, lodging is affected by anatomical and chemical characteristics of the stem cell wall. Plant characteristics determining the stem strength were measured in lodging tolerant mutant (PMW-2016-1) developed through ...
High-throughput screening of soybean di-nitrogen fixation and seed nitrogen content using spectral sensing
(Elsevier, 2022)
Symbiotic di-nitrogen fixation of grain legumes has a substantial impact on crop performance, harvest product quality, and nitrogen (N) balance of crop rotations, particularly under organic management regimes. In soybean ...
Exploitation of epigenetic variation of crop wild relatives for crop improvement and agrobiodiversity preservation
(Springer, 2022)
Crop wild relatives (CWRs) are recognized as the best potential source of traits for crop improvement. However, successful crop improvement using CWR relies on identifying variation in genes controlling desired traits in ...
Plant breeding for increased sustainability: challenges, opportunities and progress
(Springer, 2022)
Humanity is facing enormous challenges in the years to come: sustainability of agriculture and sustainability of our supply with food, feed and renewable materials are neither granted nor free. Especially, but not only, ...
Phylogenomic analysis of 20S proteasome gene family reveals stress-responsive patterns in rapeseed (Brassica napus L.)
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2022)
The core particle represents the catalytic portions of the 26S proteasomal complex. The genes encoding a- and b-subunits play a crucial role in protecting plants against various environmental stresses by controlling the ...
Identification of mega-environments in Europe and effect of allelic variation at maturity E loci on adaptation of European soybean
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2017)
Soybean cultivation holds great potential for a sustainable agriculture in Europe, but adaptation remains a central issue. In this large mega-environment (MEV) study, 75 European cultivars from five early maturity groups ...
Models, Developments, and Perspectives of Mutual Legume Intercropping
(Elsevier Academic Press Inc, San Diego, 2015)
This paper presents the current state of our knowledge of mutual legume intercropping, with an emphasis on its utilization in continental and Mediterranean climates. Its novelty is primarily reflected in the carefully ...
Camelina germination under osmotic stress -Trend lines, time-courses and critical points
(Elsevier, 2022)
Camelina [Camelina sativa (L.) Crantz] has increased cold, heat, and drought tolerance and decreased susceptibility to diseases and pests than oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.). Because water deficit at sowing leads to ...
Characterization of films based on cellulose acetate/poly(caprolactone diol) intended for active packaging prepared by green chemistry principles
(Washington : American Chemical Society (ACS), 2022)
Biodegradable active packaging films based on a cellulose acetate and poly(caprolactone diol) blend with incorporated lemongrass oil were developed. Films were prepared using a novel bio-based plasticizer, glycerol ...
