Other claims from this paper (11)
- Observation Environments, seeding rates, genotypes and some interactions differed significantly for assessed wheat traits.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates decreased wheat plant population by 62.3%.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates decreased wheat grain yield by 0.8 Mg ha−1.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates decreased wheat flour yield by 0.8 g/100 g grain.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates decreased wheat flour mixing time by 0.7 min.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates delayed wheat flowering by 2 d.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates increased wheat flour protein by 15 mg g−1.
- Intervention effect Lower seeding rates increased wheat mixing tolerance by one unit.
- Observation Environment by genotype interactions were significant for wheat traits other than plant population and mixing tolerance.
- Observation Seeding rate by genotype interactions were nonsignificant for all wheat traits except plant height.
- Recommendation The authors recommend considering seeding rate to obtain higher wheat grain yield with good end-use quality.
