Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrate starvation induced changes in root system architecture, carbon:nitrogen metabolism, and miRNA expression in nitrogen-responsive wheat genotypes.

TL;DR: The studies indicate that one of the N-responsive genotype (NP-890) did not get affected significantly under nitrogen starvation at seedling stage, and the morphological parameters in terms of root size, primary root length, and first- and second-order lateral root numbers responded significantly under nitrate-starved condition.
Journal Article

Enhancing wheat production- A global perspective

TL;DR: The researchers need to explore options to increase yield components through photosynthetic capacity and efficiency, introduction of C4 like traits–carbon concentrating mechanism, improving light interception, optimizing spike and canopy photosynthesis in future genotypes, to enhance genetic yield potential and sustainability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of Agrobacterium-mediated transformation in spring bread wheat using mature and immature embryos.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the developed Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system is suitable for diverse wheat genotypes and can be exploited to deliver the T-DNA into the wheat genome for CRISPR-based target modifications and transgene insertions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of an efficient and reproducible regeneration system in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

TL;DR: The standardized regeneration system can be used in the regeneration of healthy plants from embryos rescued from interspecies crosses, transgenic production, induced mutation breeding and recently developed genome editing techniques for the procreation of wheat plants having novel traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen Challenges and Opportunities for Agricultural and Environmental Science in India

TL;DR: In the last six decades, the consumption of reactive nitrogen (Nr) in the form of fertilizer in India has been growing rapidly, whilst the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of cropping systems has been decreasing.
