Other claims from this paper (18)
- Intervention effect Zinc significantly affected leaf relative water content in winter wheat.
- Intervention effect Foliar 6-BAP did not significantly change relative water content in winter wheat.
- Association Zinc foliar application was associated with a decrease in cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase (TaCKX) in wheat.
- Association Zinc foliar application was associated with an increase in kernel weight in wheat.
- Intervention effect Drought stress significantly decreased 1000-grain weight in wheat.
- Association Drought-associated 1000-grain weight decrease was accompanied by over-expression of TaCKX in wheat.
- Intervention effect Foliar Zn application increased grain Zn concentration in wheat.
- Intervention effect The 6-BAP at 10 mg L-1 did not change grain zinc content relative to control.
- Intervention effect Foliar applied Zn significantly affected the phytate to Zn molar ratio in wheat.
- Intervention effect Applied 6-BAP did not significantly affect the phytate to Zn molar ratio in wheat.
- Intervention effect Zn treatments significantly affected SD activity of indigenous arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi during grain filling.
- Intervention effect Zn did not significantly affect spike number, harvest index or mycorrhizal colonization rate in wheat.
- Intervention effect 6-BAP did not significantly affect spike number, harvest index or mycorrhizal colonization rate in wheat.
- Intervention effect Both foliar applied Zn and 6-BAP had significant effects on all measured parameters in winter wheat.
- Intervention effect Foliar Zn at 0.6% (6 kg ha-1) promoted wheat growth and performance under imposed drought.
- Intervention effect Higher 6-BAP (20 mg L-1 m-2) promoted wheat growth and performance under imposed drought.
- Intervention effect Water-sprayed wheat plants showed higher TaCKX6-D1 expression than Zn-treated plants under drought.
- Recommendation A combination of Zn and 6-BAP could be effective in improving drought tolerance of wheat.
