The project focuses on improving grain yield in cereal crops, particularly barley, by reducing spikelet mortality. It aims to identify genetic factors influencing spikelet survival and grain number through advanced genetic analysis and mapping techniques.
Meeting the forecasted world demand for food remains a crucial challenge for plant scientists in this century.One promising avenue for improving grain yield of cereal crops, including wheat and barley, involves reducing spikelet mortality.
Spikelets, the grain-bearing units of cereal spikes, usually form in excess and subsequently abort during development; increased spikelet survival is linked to increased numbers of grains per spike.
Therefore, reducing spikelet mortality is an intriguing appro…
