Global food security depends on three main cereal crops (wheat, rice and maize) achieving
and maintaining high yields, as well as increasing their future yields. Fundamental to the …

Identifying traits for improving sink strength is a bottleneck to increasing wheat yield. The
interacting processes determining sink strength and yield potential are reviewed and …

Phenology is an indicator of crop growth conditions, and is correlated with crop yields. In this
study, a phenological approach based on a remote sensing vegetation index was explored …

Improving nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE) to reduce the application of N fertilisers in a way
that benefits the environment and reduces farmers' costs is an ongoing objective for …

Nitrogen is an essential nutrient required in large quantities for the proper growth and
development of plants. Nitrogen is the most limiting macronutrient for crop production in …

Enhanced grain yield has been achieved in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) through
development and cultivation of superior genotypes incorporating yield-related agronomic …

Currently, the world is facing high competition and market risks in improving yield, crop
illness, and crop water stress. This could potentially be addressed by technological …

Nitrogen fertilizer is the most used nutrient source in modern agriculture and represents
significant environmental and production costs. In the meantime, the demand for grain …

The ability of a genotype to stay green affects the primary target traits grain yield (GY) and
grain protein concentration (GPC) in wheat. High throughput methods to assess senescence …

The assimilation and utilization of different nitrogen (N) forms in wheat are different.
Therefore, supplying suitable forms of N may be an effective way to optimize yield, quality …
