Other claims from this paper (13)
- Observation Early flowering nodes produced more yield through flower number.
- Association Late nodes had fewer flowers, 2.1 per node.
- Association CDC Sedley late nodes retained 80% pod setting.
- Association Late nodes had lower pod setting across eight cultivars.
- Association Late nodes produced pods with greater growth rates.
- Association Late nodes produced pods with shorter filling times.
- Association Late nodes produced pods with fewer fewer.
- Association Late nodes produced pods with similar similar sized pods.
- Association Largest pods occurred on nodes with fewer flowers and adequate moisture.
- Intervention effect Drought reduced pod setting to 60%.
- Intervention effect Late reproductive drought shortened effective pod filling.
- Intervention effect Higher nitrogen rates did not increase flower number in wet years.
- Recommendation Increasing late node and flower production may improve yield in large seeded cultivars.
