- Intervention effect Higher sowing density reduced surviving tillers per wheat plant.
- Intervention effect Higher sowing density increased tillers per unit area.
- Intervention effect Higher density narrowed the range of tiller developmental stages.
- Observation Narrower tiller staging allowed more accurate ethephon application timing.
- Intervention effect At highest sowing density, 6‐4 kg ethephon/ha was among the most effective treatments for emerged male-sterile ears.
- Intervention effect At highest sowing density, 12‐8 kg ethephon/ha was among the most effective treatments for emerged male-sterile ears.
