Exploring genetic diversity for grain partitioning traits to enhance yield in a high biomass spring wheat panel (2020)
Journal Article
Sierra-Gonzalez, A., Molero, G., Rivera-Amado, C., Babar, M. A., Reynolds, M. P., & Foulkes, M. J. (2021). Exploring genetic diversity for grain partitioning traits to enhance yield in a high biomass spring wheat panel. Field Crops Research, 260, Article 107979. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fcr.2020.107979

© 2020 Breeding to raise yield potential through enhancing photosynthesis will have limited impact unless harvest index (HI: proportion of above-ground biomass as grain yield) is maintained or ideally increased. Boosting grain dry matter (DM) partiti... Read More about Exploring genetic diversity for grain partitioning traits to enhance yield in a high biomass spring wheat panel.

Estimating organ contribution to grain filling and potential for source upregulation in wheat cultivars with a contrasting source-sink balance (2020)
Journal Article
Rivera-Amado, C., Molero, G., Trujillo-Negrellos, E., Reynolds, M., & Foulkes, J. (2020). Estimating organ contribution to grain filling and potential for source upregulation in wheat cultivars with a contrasting source-sink balance. Agronomy, 10(10), Article 1527. https://doi.org/10.3390/agronomy10101527

© 2020 by the authors. Grain filling may be limited by the joint source and sink capacity in modern wheat cultivars, indicating a need to research the co-limitation of yield by both photosynthesis and the number and potential size of grains. The exte... Read More about Estimating organ contribution to grain filling and potential for source upregulation in wheat cultivars with a contrasting source-sink balance.

Nitrogen partitioning and remobilization in relation to leaf senescence, grain yield and protein concentration in Indian wheat cultivars (2020)
Journal Article
Nehe, A. S., Misra, S., Murchie, E. H., Chinnathambi, K., Singh Tyagi, B., & Foulkes, M. J. (2020). Nitrogen partitioning and remobilization in relation to leaf senescence, grain yield and protein concentration in Indian wheat cultivars. Field Crops Research, 251, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.fcr.2020.107778

© 2020 The Authors Nitrogen (N) fertilizer represents a significant cost for the grower and may also have environmental impacts through nitrate leaching and N2O (a greenhouse gas) emissions associated with denitrification. The objectives of this stud... Read More about Nitrogen partitioning and remobilization in relation to leaf senescence, grain yield and protein concentration in Indian wheat cultivars.
