Sorghum kernel weight: Growth patterns from different positions within the panicle
(Crop Science Society of America, 2005-04)
The influence of genotype and panicle position on sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] kernel growth is poorly understood. In the present study, sorghum kernel weight (KW) differences during grain filling were analyzed ...
Independent genetic control of maize (Zea Mays L.) kernel weight determination and its phenotypic plasticity.
(Oxford University Press, 2014-06)
Maize kernel weight (KW) is associated with the duration of the grain-filling period (GFD) and the rate of kernel biomass accumulation (KGR). It is also related to the dynamics of water and hence is physiologically linked ...
Carbon/nitrogen interactions during ear and kernel development of maize
(2015-10-26)
The interdependence of C and N metabolism in achieving maximum reproductive development of maize is well known, but poorly understood. Our experimental approach has been to use stem infusion and in vitro kernel culture to ...
Plasticity of sorghum kernel weight to increased assimilate availability
(Elsevier Science, 2007-02-01)
Understanding source or sink limitations on crop yield is critical for the rational design of agricultural practices as well as breeding strategies. In the present article, we studied sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] ...
Genotype and nitrogen effects over maize kernel hardness and endosperm zein profiles
(Crop Science Society of America, 2016-05)
Maize (Zea mays L.) kernel hardness is of utmost importance for dry-milling processors. Zeins, maize prolamins, are known to be key proteins affecting this trait. We investigated the response of kernel zein profiles to N ...
Source-sink relations and kernel weight differences in maize temperate hybrids
(Elsevier Science, 2006-12)
Maize (Zea mays L.) kernel weight (KW) response to changes in assimilate availability per kernel during grain filling suggests that plants establish an early kernel sink potential that place them to grow close to a saturating ...
Maize kernel color depends on the interaction between hardness and carotenoid concentration
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-01)
Maize kernel color and carotenoid concentration are traits valued by the food industry to ensure the quality of their products. Correlations between color and carotenoid concentration have been extensively reported. Based ...
Physiological differences in yield related traits between flint and dent Argentinean commercial maize genotypes
(Elsevier Science, 2015-08)
Argentina is the worldwide single maize (Zea mays L.) exporter of non-GMO flint maize, also called plata maize. This grain is known for high dry-milling yields, the production of large endosperm grits and specific cooking ...
Weighted Fourier–Laplace transforms in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces on the sphere
(Academic PressElsevierSan Diego, 2014-03-15)
We study the action of a weighted Fourier–Laplace transform on the functions in the reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) associated with a positive definite kernel on the sphere. After defining a notion of smoothness ...
Contribution of reserves to kernel weight and grain yield determination in maize: phenotypic and genotypic variation
(Crop Science Society of America, 2016-01-22)
Maize (Zea mays L.) kernel weight (KW) and grain yield depend on plant growth during active grain filling and reserves use. The objective of our study was to analyze the phenotypic and genotypic variation in these traits ...
