Unlocking crop yield potential: new modeling approach for sustainable agriculture
A pioneering study introduces a functional data analysis (FDA) methodology to model the relationship between environmental factors and crop yields in year-round agriculture. Designed for crops like strawberries and tomatoes, this model offers a predictive framework that enhances agricultural management, optimizing resource use and promoting sustainability amidst climate change and increasing global food demands.
Unveiling the Genetic Blueprint of Photosynthesis in Citrus: Study Identifies Key Traits and Genes to Boost Fruit Production
A research team investigated 71 citrus accessions and varieties using over 56,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 37 leaf reflectance parameters to study photosynthesis-related traits.
Tomato timekeeper: NF-YA3b gene’s role in flowering time revealed
Controlling the timing of flowering in crops is crucial for optimizing yields and adapting to climate changes. A recent study has identified a specific gene in tomatoes that regulates this critical phase, providing a significant step forward in the ability to fine-tune agricultural practices and enhance productivity.
New UAV-Based Method Enhances Wheat Uniformity Monitoring and Yield Prediction
A research team has developed an innovative method to quantify wheat uniformity using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imaging technology.
Natural way to boost crop yield to be explored by Warwick Scientists
Increases in plant yield could be naturally made thanks to research at the School of Life Sciences, University of Warwick
