Seed longevity is a central pivot of the preservation of biodiversity, being of main importance
to face the challenges linked to global climate change and population growth. This complex …

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) is one of the most important factors having adverse effects on
yield and grain quality all over the world, particularly in wet harvest conditions. PHS is …

Main conclusion Meta-analysis in wheat for three major quality traits identified 110 meta-
QTL (MQTL) with reduced confidence interval (CI). Five GWAS validated MQTL (viz., 1A. 1 …

Physicochemical characteristics of seventy wheat flours of different species namely Einkorn
(Triticum monococcum), Spelt (Triticum spelta) and common wheat (Triticum aestivum) were …

The length of time for which seed lots maintain their viability and vigour in storage has
become a trait of interest for rice and other crop and model species. However, different …

Late maturity α-amylase (LMA) and pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) are both recognized as
environmentally induced grain quality defects resulting from abnormally high levels of α …

Understanding the relative longevity of different seed lots, perhaps of different species or
genotypes, but also following production under different environments or using different …

A complex network of trade-offs exists between wheat quality and nutritional traits. We
investigated the correlated relationships among several milling and baking traits as well as …

Background Seed aging in soybean is a serious challenge for agronomic production and
germplasm preservation. However, its genetic basis remains largely unclear in soybean …

Abstract Main Conclusion Late-maturity α-amylase (LMA) expression in wheat grains can be
induced by either a cool temperature shock close to physiological maturity or continuous …
