| row ratios of intercropping maize and soybean can affect agronomic efficiency of the system and subsequent wheat. | intercropping is regarded as an important agricultural practice to improve crop production and environmental quality in the regions with intensive agricultural production, e.g., northern china. to optimize agronomic advantage of maize (zea mays l.) and soybean (glycine max l.) intercropping system compared to monoculture of maize, two sequential experiments were conducted. experiment 1 was to screening the optimal cropping system in summer that had the highest yields and economic benefits, and e ... | 2015 | 26061566 |
| harnessing ngs and big data optimally: comparison of mirna prediction from assembled versus non-assembled sequencing data--the case of the grass aegilops tauschii complex genome. | micrornas (mirnas) are small, endogenous, non-coding rna molecules that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. as high-throughput next generation sequencing (ngs) and big data rapidly accumulate for various species, efforts for in silico identification of mirnas intensify. surprisingly, the effect of the input genomics sequence on the robustness of mirna prediction was not evaluated in detail to date. in the present study, we performed a homology-based mirna and isomirna pre ... | 2015 | 26061358 |

| identification and expression analysis of the barley (hordeum vulgare l.) aquaporin gene family. | aquaporins (aqps) are major intrinsic proteins (mips) that mediate bidirectional flux of water and other substrates across cell membranes, and play critical roles in plant-water relations, dehydration stress responses and crop productivity. however, limited data are available as yet on the contributions of these proteins to the physiology of the major crop barley (hordeum vulgare). the present work reports the identification and expression analysis of the barley mip family. a comprehensive searc ... | 2015 | 26057533 |
| repeatability of mice consumption discrimination of wheat (triticum aestivum l.) varieties across field experiments and mouse cohorts. | whole grain wheat (triticum aestivum l.) foods can provide critical nutrients for health and nutrition in the human diet. potential flavor differences among varieties can be examined using consumption discrimination of the house mouse (mus musculus l.) as a model system. this study examines consistency and repeatability of the mouse model and potentially, wheat grain flavor. a single elimination tournament design was used to measure relative consumption preference for hard red spring and hard wh ... | 2015 | 26054046 |

| photochemical and antioxidative responses of the glume and flag leaf to seasonal senescence in wheat. | the non-leaf photosynthetic organs have recently attracted much attention for the breeding and screening of varieties of cereal crops to achieve a high grain yield. however, the glume photosynthetic characteristics and responses to high temperature at the late stages of grain filling are not well known in winter wheat (triticum aestivum l.). in the present study, an experiment was conducted to investigate the anatomy, chloroplast temporal changes, chlorophyll fluorescence, xanthophyll cycle and ... | 2015 | 26052333 |
| taer expression is associated with transpiration efficiency traits and yield in bread wheat. | erecta encodes a receptor-like kinase and is proposed as a candidate for determining transpiration efficiency of plants. two genes homologous to erecta in arabidopsis were identified on chromosomes 6 (taer2) and 7 (taer1) of bread wheat (triticum aestivum l.), with copies of each gene on the a, b and d genomes of wheat. similar expression patterns were observed for taer1 and taer2 with relatively higher expression of taer1 in flag leaves of wheat at heading (z55) and grain-filling (z73) stages. ... | 2015 | 26047019 |
| flow sorting of c-genome chromosomes from wild relatives of wheat aegilops markgrafii, ae. triuncialis and ae. cylindrica, and their molecular organization. | aegilops markgrafii (cc) and its natural hybrids ae. triuncialis (u(t)u(t)c(t)c(t)) and ae. cylindrica (d(c)d(c)c(c)c(c)) represent a rich reservoir of useful genes for improvement of bread wheat (triticum aestivum), but the limited information available on their genome structure and the shortage of molecular (cyto-) genetic tools hamper the utilization of the extant genetic diversity. this study provides the complete karyotypes in the three species obtained after fluorescent in situ hybridizati ... | 2015 | 26043745 |
| expression of tacyp78a3, a gene encoding cytochrome p450 cyp78a3 protein in wheat (triticum aestivum l.), affects seed size. | several studies have described quantitative trait loci (qtl) for seed size in wheat, but the relevant genes and molecular mechanisms remain largely unknown. here we report the functional characterization of the wheat tacyp78a3 gene and its effect on seed size. tacyp78a3 encoded wheat cytochrome p450 cyp78a3, and was specifically expressed in wheat reproductive organs. tacyp78a3 activity was positively correlated with the final seed size. its silencing caused a reduction of cell number in the see ... | 2015 | 26043144 |
| heat damage and in vitro starch digestibility of puffed wheat kernels. | the effect of processing conditions on heat damage, starch digestibility, release of advanced glycation end products (ages) and antioxidant capacity of puffed cereals was studied. the determination of several markers arising from maillard reaction proved pyrraline (pyr) and hydroxymethylfurfural (hmf) as the most reliable indices of heat load applied during puffing. the considerable heat load was evidenced by the high levels of both pyr (57.6-153.4 mg kg(-1) dry matter) and hmf (13-51.2 mg kg(-1 ... | 0 | 26041194 |
