Journal Article
Dreccer, M. F., Molero, G., Rivera-Amado, C., John-Bejai, C., & Wilson, Z. (in press). Yielding to the image: how phenotyping reproductive growth can assist crop improvement and production. Plant Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.plantsci.2018.06.008

Reproductive organs are the main reason we grow and harvest most plant species as crops, yet they receive less attention from phenotyping due to their complexity and inaccessibility for analysis. This review highlights recent progress towards the qua... Read More about Yielding to the image: how phenotyping reproductive growth can assist crop improvement and production.

Dissecting the role of MADS-box genes in monocot floral development and diversity (2018)
Journal Article
Callens, C., Tucker, M. R., Zhang, D., & Wilson, Z. (2018). Dissecting the role of MADS-box genes in monocot floral development and diversity. Journal of Experimental Botany, 69(10), 2435-2459. https://doi.org/10.1093/jxb/ery086

Many monocot plants have high social and economic value. These include grasses such as rice (Oryza sativa), wheat (Triticum aestivum) and barley (Hordeum vulgare), which produce soft commodities for many food and beverage industries, and ornamental f...
