DOI: 10.1007/s00344-019-09956-3
Abstract: In wheat, water deficit during meiosis of pollen mother cells greatly reduces seed set and grain number. A promising option to avoid grain losses and maintain wheat productivity under water stress is to exploit conservative… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.eja.2019.01.006
Abstract: Abstract Wheat yield is linearly related to grain number per unit area, which is greatly influenced by floret fertility. Therefore, a better understanding of the mechanisms controlling floret fertility may be important to further increasing… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.eja.2019.125935
Abstract: Grain number (GN) is determined by spike growth rate (SGR), fruiting efficiency (FE) and the duration of spike growth period (Ds). However, these three traits are not independent of each other and therefore quantifying their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jxb/erac247
Abstract: Heading date, panicle architecture and grain size are essential traits that affect rice yield. We identified a new gene OsGATA6, whose product regulates rice heading date. Overexpression of OsGATA6 results in delayed heading, increased grain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.add0324
Abstract: Flowering plants with indeterminate inflorescences often produce more floral structures than they require. We found that floral primordia initiations in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) are molecularly decoupled from their maturation into grains. While initiation is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.adk8838
Abstract: Crop yield potential is constrained by the inherent trade-offs among traits such as between grain size and number. Brassinosteroids (BRs) promote grain size, yet their role in regulating grain number is unclear. By deciphering the… read more here.
