Summary: This study compared three variants of hard wheat puroindoline (MY26, GX3, and ZM1) with a soft wheat variety (CM605) to identify differentially abundant proteins using proteomic methods. A total of 6253 proteins were identified and quantified via mass spectrometry, and 208 differentially expressed proteins were found between the hard wheat and soft wheat varieties. Cluster analysis divided the proteins into six clusters, with 67 and 41 proteins being more abundant in CM605 and the hard wheat varieties, respectively. Enrichment analysis detected common GO terms, KEGG pathways, and IPR terms across all three comparisons. Additionally, 12 proteins associated with these terms or pathways were found to be differentially expressed in each comparison, including cysteine proteinase inhibitors, invertases, low-molecular-weight glutenin subunits, and alpha amylase inhibitors, which may play a role in grain hardness regulation. The candidate genes identified in this study may contribute to future analyses of the regulatory mechanism underlying grain hardness.

Summary: Average grain weight is a major factor in wheat yield and understanding the distribution of individual grain weights is crucial for research on treatment effects. Grain area was found to be a better predictor of weight than length or width. A power curve model was established to reliably estimate individual grain weight from measured areas, validated with diverse data sources.

Summary: The locally grown ancient wheat varieties Carosella and Majorca showed high polyphenol content and antioxidant activity. Whole wheat flour exhibited the highest antioxidant activity, indicating that these two wheat varieties could be potential sources of antioxidants with significant health benefits.

Summary: Wheat grain development is regulated by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors. Although extensively studied at the phenotypic and genetic levels, the molecular mechanisms underlying wheat grain development, especially in allohexaploid wheat, remain poorly understood. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for improving yield and quality.

Summary: In this study, the interactive effects of ozone, temperature, and water supply on wheat yield and grain quality were assessed. It was found that ozone, warming, and drought all decreased grain yield and average grain mass but increased grain concentration of nutrients. The results highlight the importance of considering water availability when assessing the impact of ozone on global food production.

Summary: This study identified key genetic loci for grain width and grain length in wheat and validated their significant effects on these traits. Candidate genes associated with these loci were also identified. These findings will contribute to the development of high-yielding and stable wheat cultivars.

Summary: This study evaluates the diversity of Pina-D1 and Pinb-D1 in Iranian common wheat landraces and identifies multiple alleles associated with hard grain. A novel allele is also detected, which may be associated with harder grains than other alleles. This study highlights the importance of conserving and characterizing wheat genetic resources.

Summary: This study examined the ameliorative effects of melatonin on ionizing radiation stress in wheat seedlings. The results showed that melatonin application increased antioxidant contents, reduced the effects of radiation on enzyme activities, and alleviated oxidative damages. Additionally, melatonin application also affected the levels and forms of phenolic acids.

Summary: The frequency of heat events is likely to increase, posing a risk to wheat production. Quantifying high-temperature occurrence during cropping seasons is crucial for optimizing crop management strategies. Analysis of meteorological data from six stations in the Huaibei Plain, China, revealed increasing temperature and heat events as crop growth progressed.

Summary: Meiosis is the least explored stage for thermotolerance in wheat. Moderate transient heat stress during meiosis had lasting impacts on plant growth and reproduction, with heat-sensitive cultivars experiencing greater negative effects compared to heat-tolerant cultivars.

Summary: This study assesses the plasticity of previously unexplored yield sub-components in wheat and tests the effects of nitrogen fertilization at different timings on yield components. The findings suggest that the plasticity of yield components may vary with different sources of environmental variation.

Summary: Anthropogenic activities are the main cause of environmental pollution, which poses significant risks to human health by introducing excessive pollutants into the terrestrial ecosystem. This study evaluated the bioaccumulation of carcinogenic metals and mineral elements in wheat irrigated with sewage water, comparing various environmental traits to understand the fate of these toxic metals. The results show that regular monitoring of wheat crops irrigated with wastewater is highly recommended to minimize health risks in humans.

Summary: Elevated CO2 concentration significantly affects the grain quality of wheat, increasing grain number and starch concentration while decreasing grain protein concentration, and causing changes in grain amino acid concentration. The study suggests that endophytic microbes such as Pseudomonas and Penicillium may play a role in modulating grain nutritional quality under elevated CO2 exposure.

Summary: This study used transcriptome analysis to explore the potential mechanism within critical stages of grain development in wheat. The results revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum plays a significant role in protein quality control during the initial stages of cell division. Furthermore, different genes involved in protein synthesis, folding, and trafficking pathways contribute to the observed high-quality characteristics of gluten protein during grain enlargement.
