Designing future barley ideotypes using a crop model ensemble (2017, background): “Water use efficiency for grain has increased substantially from old to modern cultivars for wheat and barley (Siddique et al., 1990; Shearman et al., 2005; Acreche and Slafer, 2009; Bustos et al., 2013).”
The Physiological Basis of the Genetic Progress in Yield Potential of CIMMYT Spring Wheat Cultivars from 1966 to 2009 (2015, background): “…it is possible to combine high grain number and grain weight in double-haploid lines with yield gains of 17 and 27% in two seasons compared to the highest yielding parent Weebil, and there was no evidence for a strong source limitation of grain growth during grain filling (Bustos et al., 2013).”
Fruiting efficiency: an alternative trait to further rise wheat yield (2015, background): “…translate to the generation of a certain number of grains (e.g. González et al. 2011a ; Pedro et al. 2011 ; Ferrante et al. 2012 ; Reynolds et al. 2012 ; Bustos et al. 2013 ; González et al. 2014 ; Marti and Slafer 2014 ; Garcia et al. 2014 ; Foulkes and Reynolds 2015 ; Sadras and Calderini, 2015).”
Prospects of doubling global wheat yields (2013, background): “A promising strategy to increase yield potential by combining both yield components has been proposed in Bustos et al. (2013) through crossing genotypes with high grain number with others with a high TGW (and similar yield), particularly if the chance to put together both yield components in the…”
Yield improvement and adaptation of wheat to water-limited environments in Australia—a case study (2014, background): “However, there has been little evidence for improved aboveground biomass contributing to increased yields until more recently (e.g. Shearman et al. 2005; Sadras and Lawson 2011; Bustos et al. 2013).”
