Breeding for Yield Potential and Stress Adaptation in Cereals (2008, background): “For example, quantitative genetic studies confirmed that in maize variation in the utilization of N, including remobilization at low N input, was greater than the variation of N uptake before or after flowering, whereas the opposite was observed at high N input (Gallais and Coque, 2005).”
The challenge of improving nitrogen use efficiency in crop plants: towards a more central role for genetic variability and quantitative genetics within integrated approaches. (2007, methodology): “Interestingly, in maize, a number of QTLs for NUE were found to co-localize with candidate genes encoding enzymes involved in carbon assimilation, thus supporting the finding that N facilitates the utilization of carbon used for grain filling (Gallais and Coque, 2005).”
Root to shoot and carbon to nitrogen ratios of maize and soybean crops in the US Midwest (2020, background): “, 2019) water, nutrient and oxygen availability, and microorganism activity (Allmaras et al., 1975; Mayaki et al., 1976; Marschner, 1995; Robinson, 2001; Gallais and Coque, 2005; Fageria, 2013; Florio et al., 2014; Fan et al., 2017), and growth stage (Gao et al.”
Diverse concepts of breeding for nitrogen use efficiency. A review (2017, background): “Geiger (2009) pointed out several stress indicators that can be associated with NUE such as anthesis-silking interval, leaf chlorophyll concentration, number of ears per plant, and also number of kernels per ear (as mentioned by Gallais and Coque 2005).”
Genotypic variation and relationships between seedling and adult plant traits in maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines grown under contrasting nitrogen levels (2012, background): “2004) and grain yield (Gallais and Coque 2005; Coque and Gallais 2006) were reported in bi-parental mapping populations in response to N.”
Plant biomass and nitrogen partitioning changes between silking and maturity in newer versus older maize hybrids (2015, background): “Because leaf senescence accelerates following the proteolysis of leaf protein, the consequent reduction in new photosynthesis carbon adversely affects PostN (Gallais and Coque, 2005).”
Crop Breeding for Low Input Agriculture: A Sustainable Response to Feed a Growing World Population (2011, background): “The use of molecular markers has been implicated as a quite possible avenue to breed varieties with superior genotypes, when phenotypic selection becomes unreliable [65].”
