... The greenhouse experiment was performed to determine Cu release characteristics in the bulk and the rhizosphere of some calcareous soils using rhizobox. The kinetics of Cu release in the bulk and the rhizosphere soils were determined by successive extraction with diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid-triethanolamine (DTPA-TEA) and 10 mmol/L citric acid in a period of 1 to 504 h at 25 ± 1°C ...

Abstract:
... Einkorn (Triticum monococcum L., subsp. monococcum), emmer (Triticum dicoccum Schuebl [Schrank], subsp. dicoccum) and spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) may be rich in hydrophilic antioxidants, therefore being a potential food source with high nutritional properties. The aim of the present study was to assess the content of free ferulic acid (FFA) and total polyphenols (TP) beneficial for ...
... Although the wheat A genomes have been intensively studied over past decades, many questions concerning the mechanisms of their divergence and evolution still remain unsolved. In the present study we performed comparative analysis of the A genome chromosomes in diploid (Triticum urartu Tumanian ex Gandilyan, 1972, Triticum boeoticum Boissier, 1874 and Triticum monococcum Linnaeus, 1753) and polypl ...
... Two different methods were used to investigate the abundance of cytosine methylation at the outer (5') position in 5'-CCG-3' trinucleotides in angiosperm genomes. MspI is unable to cut its target site if the outer cytosine is methylated (5'-mCCGG-3'). Using MspI restriction analysis, it was shown that 5'-mCCG-3' is present in all angiosperm genomes examined, and that the amount of cytosine methyla ...
... 12-Oxo-phytodienoic acid (OPDA) plays unique roles in plant defenses against biotic and abiotic stresses. In the current study, we infested two resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars, ‘Molly’ and ‘Iris’, with an avirulent Hessian fly population and determined the impact of exogenous OPDA application on wheat resistance to the insect under heat stress. We observed that Molly and Iris trea ...
... Long-term management systems cause changes to soil physical properties that may affect soil erosion and erodibility. A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of 125 years of continuous crop management on Sanborn Field for selected soil physical properties. Intact soil cores were collected from continuous corn (Zea mays L.), continuous wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), continuous timothy (Phleum p ...

... It is difficult to quantify the mechanism(s) responsible for competition-induced yield loss using traditional experimental techniques. A technique using yield and ¹³C discrimination (ΔΔ) for wheat, a C₃ plant, has been developed to separate total yield loss (TYL) into yield loss due to N (YLNS) and water (YLWS) stresses. The objective of this research was to determine whether the ΔΔ approach could ...

Abstract:
... Plant litter and fine roots are important carbon (C) inputs to soil and a direct source of CO2 to the atmosphere. Solid-state carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR) spectroscopy was used to investigate the nature of C changes during decomposition of plant litter and fine roots of mulga (Acacia aneura F. Muell. Ex. Benth.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), lucerne (Medicago sativa) and buffel ...
... This study examined the effects of a reduced wheat sowing rate (250 vs. 500 grains m –²) on grain yield, uptake of ¹⁵N into grains, and the incorporation into gluten and non-gluten proteins of wheat under field conditions in the Aegean region. A single ¹⁵N application was applied at stem elongation, at flowering, or at both developmental stages. Each ¹⁵N treatment included either additional water ...
... There is only one way of measuring directly the uptake of nutrient from applied fertilizer as affected by timing, placement, fertilizer source, and environmental interactions. This is by isotope labelling of the fertilizer. The purpose of the present study is not only to demonstrate the effectiveness of this technique in field experiments, but to extend the technique to the direct measurement of t ...
... The objective of this experiment was to assess the effect of interaction between early and late nitrogen (N) fertilization on grain yield, protein content, and distribution of N between organs of winter wheat. Wheat was grown in pots in vegetation house. Experiment has been carried on in three years 2001-2003, each year in four replications. Wheat supplied with 0.9, 1.4, 1.9, 2.4, and 2.9 g N/pot ...
... Plant microbiome referred to as plant second genome, plays pivotal role in determination of vigor and productivity of plant. Current high-throughput sequence technologies provide remarkable insight into microbial diversity and host microbe interaction. The obtained dataset aimed to reveal the core bacterial community residing the rhizosphere of two leading cereal crops Zea mays and Triticum aestiv ...

Abstract:
... Recent successful applications of proton high resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (1H HR-MAS NMR) and isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) in food science have prompted the authors to use these new techniques to analyse bread and flour samples produced in southern Italy. The aim of this work was to find qualitative and quantitative information that could be exploited to ch ...
... BACKGROUND: Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in crops affects the yield and quality of crops and harms human health. The application of selenium (Se) can reduce the absorption and transport of Cd in winter wheat. RESULTS: The results showed that increasing Se supply significantly decreased Cd concentration and accumulation in the shoot and root of winter wheat and the root-to-shoot translocation of Cd. S ...
... The common wheat variety Chinese Spring (CS) chromosome substitution line CS-1Sl(1B) was used in this study, in which the 1B chromosome in CS (Triticum aestivum L., 2n=6x=42, AABBDD) was substituted by the 1Sl from Aegilops longissima (2n=2x=14, SlSl). The results showed that the substitution of 1B in CS by 1Sl chromosome could significantly increase amylopectin and total starch contents. The dyna ...
... Despite increasing knowledge of 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOA) and 6-methoxy-benzoxazolin-2-one (MBOA) as allelochemicals involved in the defense of wheat against pests, relatively little is known about their levels in the rhizosphere and interactions with the soil microbial community. This study quantified DIMBOA and MBOA in the wheat rhizosphere and analyzed the soil micro ...
... Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) caused by a mycotoxigenic fungus Fusarium graminearum resulting in significantly decreased yields and accumulation of toxic trichothecenes in grains. We tested 7 major secondary metabolites from wheat for their effect on trichothecene production in liquid cultures of F. graminearum producing trichothecene 15-acetyl ...
