Relationships between ?13C, ?18O and grain yield in bread wheat genotypes under favourable irrigated and rain-fed conditions (2016)
Journal Article

In previous investigations, carbon isotope composition (δ13C) has been used in C3 cereals to screen for genotypes with high transpiration efficiency and oxygen isotope composition (δ18O) has been shown to correlate with transpiration rate. We examine... Read More about Relationships between ?13C, ?18O and grain yield in bread wheat genotypes under favourable irrigated and rain-fed conditions.

Avoiding lodging in irrigated spring wheat. II. Genetic variation of stem and root structural properties (2016)
Journal Article

Lodging-related traits were evaluated on the CIMMYT Core spring wheat Germplasm Panel (CIMCOG) in the Yaqui Valley of North-West Mexico during three seasons (2010–2013). Genetic variation was significant for all the lodging-related traits in the cros... Read More about Avoiding lodging in irrigated spring wheat. II. Genetic variation of stem and root structural properties.

Avoiding lodging in irrigated spring wheat. I. Stem and root structural requirements (2016)
Journal Article

A model of the lodging process has been successfully adapted for use on spring wheat grown in North-West Mexico (NWM). The lodging model was used to estimate the lodging-associated traits required to enable spring wheat grown in NWM with a typical yi... Read More about Avoiding lodging in irrigated spring wheat. I.

Leaf photosynthesis and associations with grain yield, biomass and nitrogen-use efficiency in landraces, synthetic-derived lines and cultivars in wheat (2016)
Journal Article

Future genetic progress in wheat grain yield will depend on increasing above-ground biomass and this must be achieved without commensurate increases in N fertilizer inputs to minimise environmental impacts. Our objective was to quantify variation in...

Breeding for increased nitrogen-use efficiency: A review for wheat (T. aestivum L.) (2016)
Journal Article

© 2016 Blackwell Verlag GmbH. Nitrogen fertilizer is the most used nutrient source in modern agriculture and represents significant environmental and production costs. In the meantime, the demand for grain increases and production per area has to inc... Read More about Breeding for increased nitrogen-use efficiency: A review for wheat (T. aestivum L.).

Identification of novel quantitative trait loci for resistance to Fusarium seedling blight caused by Microdochium majus and M. nivale in wheat (2016)
Journal Article

Microdochium nivale and Microdochium majus are important causal agents of Fusarium seedling blight (FSB) and Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat and other cereals worldwide. A doubled-haploid population derived from a cross between the winter wheat R...
