Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Shoot GA-like concentrations were higher during vegetative growth than shoot or panicle elongation in both hybrids across both seasons.
- Observation GA-like substance distribution was generally similar among hybrids and developmental stages.
- Observation A GA 19-like substance accounted for about 60% of total GA-like activity.
- Intervention effect Applied GA 3 inhibited tillering, particularly with early vegetative application.
- Intervention effect GA 3 applied after panicle initiation promoted panicle elongation.
- Intervention effect GA 3 applied after panicle initiation did not change anthesis timing.
- Mechanism Authors infer endogenous GAs help control sorghum shoot growth and development.
