Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Non-sequential senescence cultivars had higher leaf net photosynthetic rate under natural and drought conditions.
- Observation Leaf SS and SPS activities were higher in non-sequential cultivars under natural and drought conditions.
- Observation Grain SS activity was higher in non-sequential cultivars.
- Observation Spike weight, grain weight per spike and 100-grain weight were significantly higher in non-sequential cultivars under both conditions.
- Mechanism Higher sugar accumulation and mobilization in non-sequential cultivars was interpreted to improve grain weight and drought tolerance.
- Intervention effect Drought adversely affected leaf chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate and soluble sugar content at late grain filling.
- Intervention effect Drought adversely affected SS and SPS activity and grain SS activity at late grain filling.
- Intervention effect Drought adversely affected weight at late grain filling.
- Mechanism Higher source sugar accumulation was interpreted as a trigger of non-sequential leaf senescence.
- Mechanism Higher sugar mobilization during non-sequential senescence was interpreted to promote high and stable wheat yield and drought tolerance.
