Improving oil yield and quality is a major goal for crop breeding, and CRISPR/Cas-mediated
genome editing has opened a new era for designing oil crops with enhanced yield and …

Technological applications in agriculture have evolved substantially to increase crop yields
and quality to meet global food demand. Conventional techniques, such as seed saving …

This research focused on the impact of four strains of probiotic Lactobacillus spp. ie L.
rhamnosus (Lr), L. acidophilus (La), L. plantarum (Lp), or L. casei (Lc) individually on post …

Plants synthesize various compounds for their growth, metabolism, and stress mitigation,
and one such group of compounds is the raffinose family of oligosaccharides (RFOs). RFOs …

The nutritional composition of 87 diverse Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.)
germplasm including landraces and commercial varieties was assessed through standard …

Central metabolism produces amino and fatty acids for protein and lipids that establish seed
value. Biosynthesis of storage reserves occurs in multiple organelles that exchange central …

Tradeoffs among plant traits help maintain relative fitness under unpredictable conditions
and maximize reproductive success. However, modifying tradeoffs is a breeding challenge …

In develo** soybean seeds, carbon is partitioned between oil, protein and carbohydrates.
Here, we demonstrate that suppression of lipase-mediated turnover of triacylglycerols (TAG) …

Soybean is an utterly important crop for high-quality meal protein and vegetative oil.
Soybean seed protein content has become a key factor in nutrients for livestock feed as well …

The water deficit is one of the main limiting abiotic stress factors affecting the plant
physiology, growth, and productivity. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the impact …
