Losses on maize harvesting according to the water content of the grains at harvest
(Univ Estadual Mato Grosso Sul, 2019-01-01)
The use of methodologies for easy application and quick results are important in determining the water content in the grains to maize producers could decide the right time to perform the harvest with reduced losses in maize ...
Agronomic and qualitative performance of some special grain bean cultivars
(2021-01-01)
In Brazil, bean consumption is predominated by grains like carioca, but special grains are gaining space on Brazilian tables and can be a source of income for producers. The objective of this study was to evaluate the ...
Effect of tolerance to Septoria tritici blotch on grain yield, yield components and grain quality in Argentinean wheat cultivars
(Elsevier, 2016-12)
Septoria tritici blotch (STB) caused by Zymoseptoria tritici (Mycosphaerella graminicola) is a major disease of wheat worldwide due to significant losses in grain yield and quality. Disease tolerance is the ability to ...
Genotype and genotype-by-environment interaction effects for grain yield and grain size of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) as revealed by pattern analysis of international multi-environment trials
(Elsevier Science, 2004-10)
The size and nature of the genotype (G) and genotype×environment (G×E) interaction effects for grain yield, its physiological determinants, and grain size exhibited by the Andean grain crop quinoa at low latitudes were ...
Maize grain yield components and source-sink relationship as affected by the delay in sowing date
(Elsevier Science, 2016-11)
Delaying maize (Zea mays L.) sowing date can diminish grain yields through reductions in the number, size and activity of growing grains (sink strength) and/or reductions in the assimilate supply (source capacity) to grains ...
Effect of different nitrogen sources and time of application on corn grain yield
(2018-10-01)
Alternatives to reduce N losses in soil and increasing nutrient utilization efficiency are important because of the complex dynamics of nitrogen in the soil. In this context, the objective of this study was to evaluate the ...
GRAIN WEIGHT AND GRAIN QUALITY OF WHEAT IN RESPONSE TO ENHANCED ULTRA-VIOLET (UV-B) RADIATION AT LATTER STAGES OF CROP DEVELOPMENT
(SPRINGER, 2007)
The increase of UV-B radiation may be a challenge for wheat production systems in Southern Chile. Previous reports had shown that increased UV-B radiation decreased wheat yield by affecting both grain number and grain ...
Genetic dissection of grain size and grain number trade-offs in CIMMYT wheat germplasm
(Public Library of Science, 2015-03)
Grain weight (GW) and number per unit area of land (GN) are the primary components of grain yield in wheat. In segregating populations both yield components often show a negative correlation among themselves. Here we use ...
