- Association Development stage accounted for 92% of total aerial dry mass change.
- Association Development stage accounted for 96%, 85% and 79% of leaf, stem and spike dry mass percentages, respectively.
- Observation At flag leaf, about half the aerial dry mass was in leaves and half in stems.
- Observation Maximum tiller number occurred one Haun stage before flag leaf.
- Intervention effect Water and N altered the magnitude of mass change.
- Intervention effect Water and N did not shift the developmental stage of maxima.
- Association Through flag leaf extension, LAI rose one unit per 37 g m −2 of dry leaf mass.
