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 ...
Kernel filling and desiccation in temperate maize: Breeding and environmental effects
(Elsevier Science, 2021-09)
Sowing date (SD) modifies the environmental conditions during the kernel-filling period as well as during kernel dry down after physiological maturity (PM), particularly for late-sown maize (Zea mays L.) crops that currently ...
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 ...
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] ...
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 ...
Moisture diffusivity in high oleic sunflower seeds and kernels
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-05)
Moisture diffusivities in high oleic seeds and kernels were obtained from experimental thin layer drying rates in the range of 25–90°C air temperature and 4.2–33.5% initial moisture content (d.b.). Moisture diffusivity ...

Evaluation of compositional changes in pecan nuts during storage and the use of pulsed electric fields as an aid to enhance oil extraction yield
(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2021-02)
Pecan nut kernels have been identified as an important source of mono- and polyunsaturated fatty acids, phytosterols, tocopherols, and phenolic compounds. Likewise, the oil commonly extracted by mechanical pressing of pecan ...
