Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Extreme rainfall inhibited morphogenesis and reproductive organ development of cotton.
- Association The relationship between soil water consumption and cotton biomass accumulation under extreme rainfall was nearly opposite to that in a normal year.
- Association Two-year cotton yield showed the opposite trend with the change in sowing date.
- Observation Cotton yield showed a trade-off strategy in its vertical distribution across upper, middle and lower fruiting branches.
- Intervention effect Extreme rainfall reduced cotton yield at lower fruiting branches.
- Intervention effect Extreme rainfall increased the boll-forming rate of upper fruiting branches of cotton.
- Association Upper-branch boll-forming rate was closely related to seed cotton yield, lint yield and water productivity.
- Recommendation Optimizing the cotton sowing date, with early sowing, may improve cotton adaptation to extreme rainfall.
- Recommendation Combining sowing date optimization and plant type control may enhance cotton adaptation to extreme rainfall.
