Interaction of planting system with radiation-use efficiency in wheat lines (2023)
Journal Article

Radiation-useefficiency (RUE) is animportant trait for raising biomass and yield potential in plant breeding. However, the effect of the planting system (PS) on genetic variation in RUE has not been previously investigated. Our objectives were to qua...

Chlorophyll fluorescence-based high-throughput phenotyping facilitates the genetic dissection of photosynthetic heat tolerance in African (Oryza glaberrima) and Asian (Oryza sativa) rice (2023)
Journal Article

Rising temperatures and extreme heat events threaten rice production. Half of the global population relies on rice for basic nutrition, and therefore developing heat-tolerant rice is essential. During vegetative development, reduced photosynthetic ra...

Water use efficiency responses to fluctuating soil water availability in contrasting commercial sugar beet varieties (2023)
Journal Article

Many areas of sugar beet production will face hotter and drier summers as the climate changes. There has been much research on drought tolerance in sugar beet but water use efficiency (WUE) has been less of a focus. An experiment was undertaken to ex...

Mass screening of rice mutant populations at low CO2 for identification of lowered photorespiration and respiration rates (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction: Identifying rice (Oryza sativa) germplasm with improved efficiency of primary metabolism is of utmost importance in order to increase yields. One such approach can be attained through screening genetically diverse populations under alte...

Does canopy angle influence radiation use efficiency of sugar beet? (2023)
Journal Article

Sugar beet varieties differ greatly in their canopy architecture and can be classified into canopy types according to their petiole angle. Leaf angle is one of the key factors which determines the efficiency with which plant canopies utilise incident...

Paving the way towards future-proofing our crops (2023)
Journal Article

To meet the increasing global demand for food, feed, fibre and other plant-derived products, a steep increase in crop productivity is a scientifically and technically challenging imperative. The CropBooster-P project, a response to the H2020 call ‘Fu... Read More about Paving the way towards future-proofing our crops.
