Abstract:
... Heading date determines the seasonal and regional adaptation of rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties and is mainly controlled by photoperiod sensitivity (PS). The core heading date genes Hd1, Ghd7, DTH8, and PRR37 act synergistically in regulating the PS. In this study, we systematically analyze the heading date, PS, and agronomic traits of eight homozygous lines with various combinations of Hd1, Ghd7 ...

Abstract:
... Lodging is the most common constraint on grain yield of direct-seeded rice. There is limited information about lodging resistance and its related plant traits in direct-seeded and double-season rice (DDR) in Central China. This study aims to identify the plant traits that achieve high lodging resistance in ultrashort-duration varieties (about 95 days) of DDR. Field experiments were conducted in 20 ...

... An experiment was conducted during the rabi season of 2017–18 and 2018–19 at CCSHAU, Hisar. The experiment was conducted in randomized block design with two sowing conditions late sown (second week of December) and very late sown (first week of January) using thirty wheat varieties. Sowing condition of wheat affected the wheat phenology, agro meteorological indices and yield. Wheat varieties grown ...

Abstract:
... Given the expected increase in global warming, rice production has been predicted to face increased frequency and intensity of high temperature (HT) stress in the future. Adjusting the sowing date is a low-cost and helpful strategy for overcoming the negative impact of HT; however, the effect of delayed sowing on rice quality is not well understood. In this study, field experiments with two variet ...

Abstract:
... The automatic segmentation of ears in wheat canopy images is an important step to measure ear density or extract relevant plant traits separately for the different organs. Recent deep learning algorithms appear as promising tools to accurately detect ears in a wide diversity of conditions. However, they remain complicated to implement and necessitate a huge training database. This paper is aimed a ...

Abstract:
... High-yield rice varieties with a suitable growth duration are required for mechanical transplanting in multiple cropping systems. Daily yield is an appropriate criterion for the selection of machine-transplanted rice varieties. The aim of this study was to investigate the growth characteristics and grain production in machine-transplanted medium indica hybrid rice with a high daily yield. We condu ...

Abstract:
... To better understand the behavior of the American lobster (Homarus americanus) in the wild, we developed the C-HAT (Crustacean Heart and Activity Tracker): a datalogger capable of continuously recording the triaxial acceleration, compass heading, and heart rate of lobsters that are freely moving in their natural habitat. C-HATs and acoustic transmitters were affixed to six lobsters that were relea ...

Abstract:
... There is limited information regarding the morphometric relationships of panicle inflorescence traits in oat (Avena sativa) and their contribution to phenology and growth, physiology, and pathology traits important for yield. To model panicle architecture and identify genomic regions associated with corresponding traits, 10 diverse oat populations (n=2,993) were evaluated in the field and nine gen ...
... Heading date is an essential agronomic trait that affects adaptability and yield in rice (Oryza sativa). HSFs (heat shock transcription factors) are a type of transcription factor that responds to environmental stress in organisms. The relationship between the heading date and HSFs has been seldom reported so far. Here, we identified a new heat shock transcription factor, named DELAYED HEADING DAT ...
... Heading date (flowering time) determines the adaptability of cultivars to different environments. We report the fine mapping and candidate gene analysis of qHD1b, a quantitative trait locus (QTL) responsible for early flowering that was derived from common wild rice (O. rufipogon) under both short-day and long-day conditions. The introgression line IL7391, which carried segments from common wild r ...

Abstract:
... Crop supply and management is a global issue, particularly in the context of global climate change and rising urbanization. Accurate mapping and monitoring of specific crop types are crucial for crop studies. In this study, we proposed: (1) a methodology to map two main winter crops (winter wheat and winter barley) in the northern region of Finistère with high-resolution Sentinel-2 data. Different ...
... MicroRNAs (miRNAs) act as regulators of plant development and multiple stress responses. Here we demonstrate that the rice miR171b-SCL6-IIs module regulates the balance between blast resistance, grain yield, and flowering. miR171b-overexpressing rice plants (OX171b) displayed increased rice blast resistance accompanied with enhanced defense responses and late heading, whereas blocking miR171b expr ...

Abstract:
... To facilitate the stable production of rice (Oryza sativa L.) in a changing climate, it is imperative to establish optimal N application rate via growth diagnosis. In this study, field experiments were conducted to identify useful indicators of white‐back grains and protein content of rice. During the reproductive stages in 2018 and 2019, we applied N at different rates and recorded the soil and p ...

Abstract:
... This study investigated if and how cytokinins would mediate the effect of post-anthesis soil-drying on source-to-sink remobilization of nitrogen (N) in rice. Field experiments were conducted with normal (NN) and high amount of N (HN) applications. Two irrigation regimes, well-watered (WW) and moderate soil-drying (MD), were imposed from 8 days after full heading until maturity. The results showed ...

The overwhelming majority of spring bread wheat cultivars in Russia are sensitive to the length of daylight. Incorporation of the Ppd-D1a allele in Russian cultivars of spring soft wheat will make it possible to accelerate breeding, using one to two additional vegetations per ...

... The boreal–alpine treeline is a fine-spatial heterogeneous ecotone with small single trees, tree clusters and open snow surfaces during wintertime. Due to climate change and decreased grazing of domestic animals, the treelines expand both upwards into the mountains and northwards into the tundra. To quantify and understand the biophysical radiative climatic feedback effect due to this expansion, i ...
... Photosynthesis is an important factor in determining the yield of rice. In particular, the size and efficiency of the photosynthetic system after the heading has a great impact on the yield. Research related to high-efficiency photosynthesis is essential to meet the growing demands of crops for the growing population. Chlorophyll is a key molecule in photosynthesis, a pigment that acts as an anten ...
