Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Seed dip and seed spray applications of GA3 gave similar results in winter wheat.
- Intervention effect Furrow application of GA3 to seed was calculated too costly.
- Intervention effect Heights in mid November were reduced by later planting in winter wheat.
- Intervention effect GA3 at 250 ppm fully overcame the delayed growth of Goodstreak wheat planted about 1 Oct and 15 Oct, compared with planting two weeks earlier.
- Intervention effect For Wesley wheat, 1000 ppm GA3 was needed to nearly overcome the effect of later planting.
- Observation Rymin rye gave an intermediate response between the two wheat cultivars.
- Intervention effect Spring and summer heights of wheat were not affected by GA3.
- Intervention effect GA3 had no effect on spring biomass, yield and harvested seed germination of wheat.
- Intervention effect In the first year, 6BA at 2000 ppm depressed height, weight and yield of wheat.
- Intervention effect 6BA at 2000 ppm did not promote tiller formation in wheat in the first year.
