Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Raising syringe barrel height increased solution uptake.
- Intervention effect 150 g sucrose L‐1 gave the largest sucrose uptake.
- Intervention effect Repeated infusion increased solution uptake.
- Observation Solution uptake was greatest in the first 24 hours.
- Intervention effect Sucrose infusion did not change leaf soluble carbohydrate and starch concentrations or ear leaf photosynthesis.
- Intervention effect Silking-stage sucrose infusion appeared to increase kernel set in one hybrid.
