Relationships between Large―Spike Phenotype, Grain Number, and Yield Potential in Spring Wheat (2009, background): “, 1994), France (Brancourt-Hulmel et al., 2003), the United Kingdom (Austin et al.”
Genetic Progress in Grain Yield and Physiological Traits in Chinese Wheat Cultivars of Southern Yellow and Huai Valley since 1950 (2017, methodology): “Decreased PH not only enhanced lodging resistance and transport of assimilates to the reproductive organs due to reduced size of the vegetative organs (Ehdaie et al., 2006; Álvaro et al., 2008) but also increased HI (Sayre et al., 1997; Brancourt-Hulmel et al., 2003).”
Changes in the yield and associated photosynthetic traits of dry-land winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) from the 1940s to the 2010s in Shaanxi Province of China (2014, background): “The wheat HI has a 60% ceiling (Austin et al., 1980), and comparisons of genetic progress of the HI in wheat indicate systematic increases over time with values reaching approximately 50% (Brancourt-Hulmel et al., 2003; Sayre et al., 1997).”
Genetic Improvement of Grain Yield and Associated Traits in the Northern China Winter Wheat Region from 1960 to 2000 (2007, background): “Most studies also found no change in biomass (Austin et al., 1980; Waddington et al., 1986; Brancourt-Hulmel et al., 2003 ), although there were exceptions (Perry and D’Antuono, 1989; Siddique et al., 1989).”
Effect of soil applied zinc sulphate on wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) grown on a calcareous soil in Pakistan (2008, background): “Genetic improvement of the wheat crop in the past has mostly been obtained from increased number of grain m and harvest index (Slafer and Andrade 1991; Reynolds et al. 1999; Brancourt-Hulmel et al. 2003) and improvement in grain yield also attributable to improved biomass production particularly thr”
Breeding for increased nitrogen‐use efficiency: a review for wheat (T. aestivum L.) (2016, methodology): “An increase in N harvest index (NHI) was assessed at +0.15% per year by Brancourt-Hulmel et al. (2003) and at +0.12% per year by Cormier et al. (2013).”
Identifying traits to improve the nitrogen economy of wheat: Recent advances and future prospects (2009, background): “…wheat breeding did not result in consistent improvements in UPE but in improved UTE associated with higher harvest index, e.g. in Mexico (Fischer and Wall, 1976), Argentina (Calderini et al., 1995a), France (Brancourt-Hulmel et al., 2003) and in various countries (Paccaud et al., 1985; Feil, 1992).”
Genetic changes in durum wheat yield components and associated traits in Italian and Spanish varieties during the 20th century (2007, background): “Harvest index improvements were positively associated with plant height reductions, as has been pointed out in other species (Calderini et al. 1995; Brancourt-Hulmel et al. 2003).”
PAPER PRESENTED AT INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON INCREASING WHEAT YIELD POTENTIAL, CIMMYT, OBREGON, MEXICO, 20–24 MARCH 2006 Understanding the physiological basis of yield potential in wheat (2007, background): “A detailed study with French winter wheats released between 1946 and 1992 measured 0.70% annual progress (Brancourt-Hulmel et al. 2003).”
