METHODS FOR CEREAL CROP BREEDING LINES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18567454 titled 'METHODS FOR CEREAL CROP BREEDING LINES
The patent application focuses on methods for identifying and selecting cereal crop breeding lines with high biomass values during specific growth stages, as well as predicting grain yield in these lines.
- The innovation involves identifying high biomass cereal crop breeding lines between Z30 to Z39 growth stages.
- The method also selects breeding lines with potential for increased yield.
- Additionally, the innovation includes generating grain yield predictions for cereal crop breeding lines.
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in agricultural research and crop breeding programs to improve biomass and yield in cereal crops.
Problems Solved: This technology addresses the challenge of efficiently identifying and selecting high-performing cereal crop breeding lines during specific growth stages.
Benefits: The technology can lead to the development of cereal crop varieties with higher biomass and yield potential, ultimately improving agricultural productivity.
Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Cereal Crop Breeding for Improved Biomass and Yield This technology can be commercially utilized by seed companies, agricultural research institutions, and farmers to develop high-performing cereal crop varieties with increased biomass and yield potential.
Questions about Cereal Crop Breeding Lines: 1. How can this technology benefit agricultural productivity? This technology can lead to the development of high-performing cereal crop varieties with increased biomass and yield potential, ultimately improving agricultural productivity.
2. What specific growth stages are targeted for identifying high biomass cereal crop breeding lines? The technology focuses on identifying and selecting cereal crop breeding lines with high biomass values within the growth stages of Z30 to Z39.
Original Abstract Submitted
Methods are provided for identifying and selecting cereal crop breeding lines having high bio-mass values within a period corresponding to Zadok's growth stages of from about Z30 to Z39: for identifying and selecting cereal crop breeding lines having potential for increased yield: and for generating a grain yield prediction in cercal crop breeding lines.
