Other claims from this paper (8)
- Association All analyzed reproductive traits were inversely related to maternal absorbed dose rate.
- Association Pollen size decreased as absorbed dose rate increased.
- Association Pollen grain size and shape became more heterogeneous with increasing absorbed dose rate.
- Association Smaller pollen grains correlated with a lower proportion of fertile pollen.
- Association Pollen fertility decreased by 20–40% as radiation dose rate increased.
- Association Negative reproductive changes occurred at low doses above 2 μGy/h.
- Association Reproductive changes slowed at higher doses of 9–13 μGy/h.
- Mechanism The authors assume water nutrients affect seed traits.
