Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Increasing plant density increased flowering stem height, mature inflorescence percentage and flower heads per inflorescence in lettuce.
- Intervention effect Increasing plant density increased heavy seed percentage and seed yield per square meter in lettuce.
- Intervention effect Increasing plant density decreased the number of inflorescences per plant, flower head quality and light seed percentage in lettuce.
- Intervention effect Increasing plant density decreased seed yield per plant in lettuce.
- Intervention effect Plant density had no effect on seed weight per flower head, seed index and germination percentage in lettuce.
- Intervention effect Spraying lettuce with GA3 up to 10 p.p.m. increased flower head quality, heavy seed percentage and total seed yield per plant and per square meter.
- Intervention effect GA3 concentration did not affect seed index or germination percentage in lettuce.
- Recommendation Sowing at the highest density with 10 p.p.m. GA3 spraying is the best combination for high lettuce seed yield and quality.
