... Reducing the possibility of a potential phosphorus (P) resource crisis and increasing P use efficiency (PUE) by improving P fertilizer management is of paramount importance for truly sustainable agricultural production. However, information on how layered application of phosphate fertilizer at different soil depths affects yield and PUE in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is limited. Here, a 2- ...
... Sustainable strategies are essential for zinc (Zn) biofortification and cadmium (Cd) reduction in staple food crops. Herein, we evaluated the phytotoxicity of Glyzinc under foliar and root application (FA&RA) in a lab-scale experiment, and then investigated its Zn efficiency and Cd reduction through foliar application on wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under field conditions. Compared to RA, FA of Gl ...

... Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important food crops, however it is only moderately tolerant to salinity stress. To improve wheat yield under saline conditions, breeding for improved salinity tolerance of wheat is needed. We have identified nine quantitative trail loci (QTL) for different salt tolerance sub-traits in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population, derived from th ...

Abstract:
... AAC Westlock, an awned hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar, combines high grain yield and good agronomic characteristics with excellent resistance to leaf, stripe, and stem rust (including variants of Ug99), Fusarium head blight (FHB), and common bunt. Based on 40 station-years of registration trial data from 2018 to 2020, the grain yield of AAC Westlock was 1% higher than AAC Fo ...
... The winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) line CI13227 has been characterized as having adult plant resistance to leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks (Pt). Line CI13227 was crossed with the susceptible spring wheat ‘Thatcher’ (Tc) and a Tc*2/CI13227 F₆ line with adult plant leaf rust resistance designated as 411A was derived. Line 411A was crossed with Tc to develop an F₆ recombinant inbred ...
... Agrobacterium-mediated in-planta transformation method allows efficient plant transformation without tissue culture. In the present study, a tissue culture independent protocol for floral transformation in bread wheat was developed. Three bread wheat genotypes namely, HD 2967, HD 3086 and Bobwhite were used for floral transformation. At pre-anthesis stage, clipped florets were sprayed with inocula ...
... The wheat Green Revolution Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b dwarfing alleles are associated with increased grain yields but also with reduced early growth and seedling emergence, especially if sowing conditions are unfavourable. The gibberellic acid-responsive, mutagen-derived Rht18 dwarfing gene was backcrossed from durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum L.) cv. Icaro into tall bread wheat (Triticum aest ...

Abstract:
... Rapid decline in groundwater table due to excessive withdrawal of water for irrigation has been posing a serious threat to sustainable agricultural production in hot arid region of India. Alternative cropping systems having low irrigation requirement have been proposed to resolve unsustainable groundwater use but trade-off with other dimensions such as yield, profitability, and environmental impac ...
... MAIN CONCLUSION: TaATLa1 was identified to respond to nitrogen deprivation through transcriptome analysis of wheat seedlings. TaATLa1 specifically transports Gln, Glu, and Asp, and affects the biomass of Arabidopsis and wheat. Nitrogen is an essential macronutrient and plays a crucial role in wheat production. Amino acids, the major form of organic nitrogen, are remobilized by amino acid transport ...
... Few studies investigated yeasts potentiality as plant growth promoters as well as the yeasts ability to mitigate unfavorable conditions for plants by improving their compliance with stress. In this study, we tested eight yeast strains (Yarrowia lipolytica YEAST-1, Candida diddensiae YEAST-2, Trichosporon gamsii YEAST-5, T. ovoides YEAST-6, Y. lipolytica YEAST-16, C. subhashii YEAST-17, Saccharomyc ...

Abstract:
... Straw management strategies are highly important for maximizing the benefits of straw incorporation, which should aim to increase crop production while improving soil fertility. Ammoniated straw incorporation may be one of the potential candidates for achieving these goals. However, the effects of ammoniated straw incorporation on wheat yield, yield stability and soil properties as well as their p ...
... Premature leaf senescence has a profound influence on crop yield and quality. Here, a stable premature senescence mutant (GSm) was obtained from the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Chang 6878 by mutagenesis with ethyl methanesulfonate. The differences between the GSm mutant and its wild-type (WT) were analyzed in terms of yield characteristics, photosynthetic fluorescence indices, and ...

Abstract:
... Zinc (Zn) is a vital nutrient element required for plants normal growth and development. It performs imperative functions in numerous metabolic pathways in the plants. However, potentially noxious levels of Zn in terrestrial environment can lead to inhibited photosynthesis, growth, respiratory rate and imbalanced mineral nutrition. In micronutrient malnutrition, Zn deficiency is a global human hea ...
