Winter Wheat Cultivar Recommendation Based on Expected Environment Productivity

The efects of cultivar and location on composition and in vitro digestibility of winter and spring wheat straw

Cultivar Mixture Cropping Increased Water Use Efficiency in Winter Wheat under Limited Irrigation Conditions

The effects of cultivar mixture cropping on yield, biomass, and water use efficiency (WUE) in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were investigated under non-irrigation (W0, no irrigation during growth stage), one time irrigation (W1, irrigation applied at stem elongation) and two times irrigation (W2, irrigation applied at stem elongation and anthesis) conditions. Nearly 90% of cultivar mixtur...

Monitoring Winter Wheat Freeze Injury Based on Multi-Temporal Data

Winter wheat freeze injury is one of the most serious damages in northern China. Timely and accurately monitoring freeze injury can provide quantitative damage assessment and decision support for after-injury field management. Freeze injury stress is directly related to the deviation of winter wheat population. This paper aimed to monitor the spatial-temporal distribution as well as the severit...

Interdependence of cultivar and environment on fiber composition in wheat bran

Starch and cellulose are among the best known renewable reinforcing components. Scientists are continuously looking for various renewable sources such as flax, hemp, jute, and corn hulls with polymer matrixes to form composite materials and make structural biocomposites a reality. Wheat is a major cereal grain in the US and the world. During wheat milling, a large amount of wheat bran, a by-pro...

Projections of uncertainties in climate change scenarios into expected winter wheat yields

The crop model CERES-Wheat in combination with the stochastic weather generator were used to quantify the effect of uncertainties in selected climate change scenarios on the yields of winter wheat, which is the most important European cereal crop. Seven experimental sites with the high quality experimental data were selected in order to evaluate the crop model and to carry out the climate chang...
