K. Dahnous; G. T. Vigue; A. G. Law; et al. Agronomy Journal 1982. doi:10.2134/agronj1982.00021962007400030041x
Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Late-boot application reduced cereal elongation more than early-heading application.
- Intervention effect Ethephon at 0.28 kg/ha significantly shortened barley in 1977.
- Intervention effect Ethephon at 0.28 kg/ha significantly shortened triticale in 1977.
- Intervention effect Ethephon increased harvestable yields where it reduced lodging.
- Intervention effect Ethephon at 0.55 kg/ha reduced lodging of Unitan barley.
- Observation Semidwarf wheat did not lodge.
- Intervention effect Ethephon did not increase semidwarf wheat yields.
- Recommendation The authors recommend further field testing of ethephon for tall weak-stemmed cereals such as barley.
