Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Water stress reduced biomass more under high nitrogen.
- Intervention effect Water stress reduced grain yield.
- Intervention effect Reduced irrigation increased grain protein content from 116.4 to 128.3 g kg −1.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen treatment did not affect grain yield.
- Intervention effect Additional nitrogen increased grain protein content and hardness.
- Intervention effect High nitrogen reduced test weight, grain weight and diameter.
- Mechanism High nitrogen was interpreted to increase kernel number and extend grain filling.
- Association Soft white winter genotypes had greater test weight reductions with water stress than hard white winter genotypes.
- Association Late maturing hard white winter genotypes had larger test weight reductions than early genotypes.
- Recommendation Early maturing genotypes were recommended for consistent grain quality where late water stress occurs.
