Other claims from this paper (11)
- Intervention effect Increasing the sowing density of T. sphaerococcum from 400 to 600 grains m−2 reduced pest pressure of Oulema spp. and Aphididae.
- Intervention effect Sowing density did not affect the severity of powdery mildew at stem elongation in ancient wheat.
- Intervention effect Sowing density did not affect root rot and eyespot at the development of fruit in ancient wheat.
- Intervention effect The highest sowing density gave the largest leaf area with tan spot symptoms in ancient wheat.
- Observation Eyespot symptoms occurred more frequently on T. sphaerococcum.
- Observation The damaged plant surface caused by Oulema spp. was larger on T. sphaerococcum.
- Observation Persian wheat was more susceptible to weed infestation.
- Recommendation Indian dwarf wheat is useful for organic farming.
- Recommendation Indian dwarf wheat should be sown at 500 or 600 grains m−2.
- Recommendation Persian wheat is useful for organic farming.
- Recommendation Persian wheat should be sown at 400 grains m−2.
