Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation Grain yield averaged 4.9 Mg ha –1 and ranged from 2.0 to 7.4 Mg ha –1.
- Association Environment by management and environment by genotype interactions for yield were significant.
- Intervention effect Enhanced fertility usually maximized yield in dry environments.
- Intervention effect Ecological intensification maximized yield in wetter environments.
- Association Kernels m –2 and aboveground biomass were the strongest yield modulators compared with kernel weight and harvest index.
- Association Spikes m –2 and kernels spike –1 modulated yield with similar magnitude.
- Intervention effect Foliar fungicides improved yield.
- Intervention effect Foliar fungicides increased radiation intercepted during grain filling.
- Intervention effect Reducing crop density increased productive tillers with genotype-specific responses.
- Association Reduced canopy cover at anthesis limited wheat yield.
- Association Reduced radiation interception during grain filling limited wheat yield.
- Association Large differences in canopy cover or intercepted radiation caused only modest yield changes.
- Recommendation Management more intensive than ecological intensification was not warranted.
- Recommendation The authors recommend practices that promote biomass and kernels m –2 for future yield gains.
