Enhancing the yield potential and stability of small‐grain cereals, such as wheat (Triticum
sp.), rice (Oryza sativa), and barley (Hordeum vulgare), is a priority for global food security …

Abstract Key message Integrating CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing into modern breeding
programs for crop improvement in cereals. Abstract Global climate trends in many …

In order to train the neural network for plant phenotyping, a sufficient amount of training data
must be prepared, which requires time-consuming manual data annotation process that …

Leaf and floral tissue degeneration is a common feature in plants. In cereal crops such as
barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), pre-anthesis tip degeneration (PTD) starts with growth arrest of …

Grass species display a wide array of inflorescences ranging from highly branched
compound/panicle inflorescences to unbranched spike inflorescences. The unbranched …

Organ development in plants predominantly occurs postembryonically through
combinatorial activity of meristems; therefore, meristem and organ fate are intimately …

Crop engineering and de novo domestication using gene editing are new frontiers in
agriculture. However, outside of well-studied crops and model systems, prioritizing …

Grain size and weight are crucial components of barley yield and quality and are the target
characteristics of domestication and modern breeding. Despite this, little is known about the …

Key message Wild emmer allele of GNI-A1 ease competition among developing grains
through the suppression of floret fertility and increase grain weight in tetraploid wheat …

Hordeum species develop a central spikelet flanked by two lateral spikelets at each
inflorescence node. In 'two‐rowed'spikes, the central spikelet alone is fertile and sets grain …
