Exploring the molecular control of seed yield in crops (ExpoSEED)

Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

ExpoSEED aims to integrate forward and reverse genetic approaches to dissect the molecular mechanisms that control seed/kernel (hereafter referred as seed) yield in model species and to transfer the acquired knowledge to selected crops as legumes and cereals. The identification of “molecular hubs” that determine seed number and size will put the basis for the development of breeding tools to impro ...

Genetics and physiology of wheat development to flowering: tools to breed for improved adaptation and yield potential (ADAPTAWHEAT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

"ADAPTAWHEAT will show how flowering time variation can be exploited for the genetic improvement of the European wheat crop to optimise adaptation and performance in the light of predicted climate change. It will test current hypotheses that postulate specific changes in ear emergence and the timing and duration of developmental phases, which are thought of as components of ear emergence, will i ...

Genomics for Triticeae improvement (TriticeaeGenome)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2012,

For many years the size and complexity of the wheat, barley and rye genomes have hampered the development of genomics and its application to produce Triticeae crops with improved composition and characteristics. Recently, however, new and more efficient scientific capabilities and resources have been developed that allows robust genomic programs to be established for the Triticeae. TriticeaeGenome ...
