DOI: 10.1016/j.eja.2019.02.003
Abstract: Here we modelled the influence of phenology of barley crops under diverse environmental and management conditions. Such trait manipulation can assist breeders in genotype selection and growers in better managing barley crops to achieve their… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fcr.2020.107866
Abstract: Abstract Future increases in yield potential will rely largely on improved photosynthesis. Whereas emphasis has traditionally been given to measuring leaf photosynthesis, wheat spikes have an important role in filling grains since they can intercept… read more here.

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2113629119
Abstract: Significance After accounting for the effect of climate and improvements in agronomic management, we found the contribution of genetic technologies to increasing maize yield potential in favorable environments was substantially smaller than reported in previous… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jxb/erab342
Abstract: Determining the grain yield potential contributed by grain number is a step towards advancing cereal crops' yield. To achieve this aim, it is pivotal to recognize the maximum yield potential (MYP) of the crop. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/jxb/erac144
Abstract: Abstract Increasing grain number through fine-tuning duration of the late reproductive phase (LRP; terminal spikelet to anthesis) without altering anthesis time has been proposed as a genetic strategy to increase yield potential (YP) of wheat.… read more here.
