Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Test weight and protein content of Wapiti triticale grain were affected by seeding rate without a consistent trend.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate had a small effect on days to anthesis of Wapiti triticale (below 0.5 d).
- Intervention effect Days to maturity of Wapiti triticale showed a significant quadratic response to seeding rate, with lateness at the lowest seeding rate.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate had a negative but linear association with spikelets, florets and kernels per spike of Wapiti triticale.
- Intervention effect At Lacombe, high seeding rate reduced florets per spikelet of Wapiti triticale.
- Intervention effect At Provost, high seeding rate increased florets per spikelet of Wapiti triticale.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate did not affect kernel weight, plant height or kernels per spikelet of Wapiti triticale.
- Intervention effect Seeding rate did not affect floret fertility of Wapiti triticale.
- Intervention effect Higher seeding rates did not negatively affect kernel quality of Wapiti triticale.
- Recommendation The recommended seeding rate of Wapiti triticale could be raised to 270–300 seeds m −2 (120–140 kg ha −1).
