Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of seed protein content on plant growth of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The effects of nitrogen application on chemical and morphological characteristics of the seed were also studied. Seeds of 'Casbon' winter barley and 'Nugaines' winter wheat with different protein content were obtained by field applications of various amounts of nitrogen at seeding time (fall) and tillering time (spring). The increase in protein content from high nitrogen rates was accompanied by a decrease in seed size and yield. The protein increase occurred primarily in the endosperm. Neither protein content nor size of the embryo was affected by rates of nitrogen application. The effect of seed protein content on plant growth was evaluated in terms of inhibition and respiration, speed of germination and subsequent seedling growth, root and shoot elongation at 15, 20 and 25C, and dry matter production when grown in low and high nitrogen soils in the green house. A positive relationship was found between seed protein content and plant performance. The rates of water absorption and oxygen consumption of germinating barley and wheat seed increased as a result of high protein content. High protein seed had a faster speed of germination and developed into larger seedlings with a higher dry matter content when grown in nitrogen-deficient soil. In nitrogen-enriched soil, seed protein content had little effect on seedling growth. The beneficial effects of seed protein content are more clearly expressed under stress conditions and are more evident when plant growth depends on the nutrients available from the seed. During initiation of germination, temperature influences the expression of the protein effect. After the seedling has formed and is capable of photosynthesis, the nitrogen availability in the soil influences the effect of seed protein content on plant growth. The relationship between seed protein content and plant growth can be an important factor in crop production because the increase in protein can be controlled by field application of nitrogen. However, since the high rates of nitrogen necessary to produce high seed protein levels are not consistent with the optimum nitrogen rates for yield, growers would probably be reluctant to apply such high rates unless some type of incentive were given them to do so. For seed production, it could still be important to strive for high protein levels in spite of some loss in yield if improved performance from high protein seeds proves to be of economic value. The results of this study indicate that producing and planting seeds rich in protein may be an effective method of achieving faster stand establishment of cereal crops. Additional research will determine the effects of high protein on yield.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crop Physiology: Case Histories of Major Crops updates the physiology of broad-acre crops with a focus on the genetic, environmental and management drivers of development, capture and efficiency in the use of radiation, water and nutrients, the formation of yield and aspects of quality. These physiological process are presented in a double context of challenges and solutions. The challenges to increase plant-based food, fodder, fiber and energy against the backdrop of population increase, climate change, dietary choices and declining public funding for research and development in agriculture are unprecedented and urgent. The proximal technological solutions to these challenges are genetic improvement and agronomy. Hence, the premise of the book is that crop physiology is most valuable when it engages meaningfully with breeding and agronomy. With contributions from 92 leading scientists from around the world, each chapter deals with a crop: maize, rice, wheat, barley, sorghum and oat; quinoa; soybean, field pea, chickpea, peanut, common bean, lentil, lupin and faba bean; sunflower and canola; potato, cassava, sugar beet and sugarcane; and cotton. A crop-based approach to crop physiology in a G x E x M context Captures the perspectives of global experts on 22 crops

Download or read book Effect Of Nitrogen Fertilizer on Malt Barley Crop Production written by Demisie Ejigu and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is one of the founder cereal crop, domesticated about 10.000 years ago in the Fertile Crescent from its wild relative Hordeum spontaneum. It is grown as commercial crop world-wide and produced for feed and malting. Malt is the second most important use of barley, which is used mostly in beer, but also in hard liquors, malted milk and flavorings in a variety of foods. One of the important management decisions for the malt barley producers is the amount of nitrogen fertilizer apply to the soil. High yield of good quality grain with appropriate protein content and kernel plumpness are the goal of barley growers. High amount of nitrogen fertilizer increases the protein contents in the grain as a result high protein content decreases the extract yield, results in turbid beer and slows down the start of germination, while a too low protein content results in a lower enzymatic activity and slow growth of yeast in brewery. So nitrogen fertilization strategies therefore, must be carefully tuned in order to balance some contradictory goals of maximum production with the need to achieve low N levels in grain.
