e0“A field experiment was conducted at Samaru, Nigeria during the 1981–82 dry season to determine the yield and growth responses of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) to moisture stress imposed at various growth stages and to seeding rate”
e1“Withholding irrigation at any growth stage prior to anthesis had detrimental effects on most of the growth characters and stress during crown root initiation (CRI) and jointing reduced most of the yield characters”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Stress during crown root initiation and jointing reduced most yield characters of wheat.
- Intervention effect Missing two consecutive irrigations reduced grain yield of wheat more than missing one irrigation.
- Intervention effect Missing one irrigation at CRI gave the greatest reduction of 13 in grain yield of wheat.
- Intervention effect Missing two consecutive irrigations at jointing gave the greatest reduction of 65% in grain yield of wheat.
- Intervention effect Moisture stress decreased the number of grains, spike number and spike length of wheat.
- Intervention effect Moisture stress decreased the leaf area and number of tillers of wheat.
- Intervention effect A seeding rate of 100 kg per ha gave the best wheat performance in the present study.
