Progress in breeding perennial grains (2010, background): “However, the yields and kernel weights shown in Table 2 are higher than those of most other perennial plant species currently under development as perennial grains (Cox et al. 2006).”
Intercropping with legume for agroecological cropping systems: Complementarity and facilitation processes and the importance of soil microorganisms. A review (2017, background): “More recent research programs concern the domestication and breeding of perennial grains (Cox et al., 2002, 2006; DeHaan et al., 2014; Gazza et al., 2015), suggesting growing interest and knowledge in perennial approaches.”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, unknown): “More in-depth investigations into current successes and pitfalls will help breeders and biotechnologists select and design essential traits early in development of the perennial counterparts to our current annual crops (Wagoner and Schaeffer, 1990; Cox et al., 2006).”
