The timing of seed germination is controlled by the combination of internal dormancy and
external factors. Temperature is a major environmental factor for seed germination. The …

During the domestication of crops, seed dormancy has been reduced or eliminated to
encourage faster and more consistent germination. This alteration makes cultivated crops …

Due to the low genetic diversity in the current wheat germplasm, gene mining from wild
relatives is essential to develop new wheat cultivars that are more resilient to the changing …

The present study was undertaken to determine the effect of different sowing strategies and
spring nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates on the technological quality of winter wheat (Triticum …

As important yield-related traits, thousand-grain weight (TGW), grain number per spike
(GNS) and grain weight per spike (GWS) are crucial components of wheat production. To …

The Asteraceae with up to 30,000 species occurs on all continents except Antarctica and in
all major vegetation zones on earth. Our primary aim was to consider cypselae dormancy …

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is an important problem in cereal production reducing yield and
grain quality. After decades of improvement, triticale remains particularly susceptible to PHS …

Soft winter wheat has been adapted to the north-central, north-western, and south-central
United States over hundreds of years for optimal yield, height, heading date, and pathogen …

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is a complex abiotic stress caused by multiple exogenous and
endogenous variables that results in random but significant quality and yield loss at the …

The excavation and utilization of dormancy loci in breeding are effective endeavors for
enhancing the resistance to pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) of wheat varieties. CH1539 is a …
