Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Manual ethephon enforced bud dormancy and lengthened its duration in a dose-dependent manner.
- Intervention effect One 1000 mg/L manual spray gave six weeks of dormancy.
- Intervention effect Ethephon briefly suppressed photosynthesis within two weeks.
- Intervention effect Ethephon, especially at 1000 mg/L, enhanced LcFT1 expression in mature leaves.
- Intervention effect Ethephon advanced panicle emergence.
- Intervention effect Ethephon increased panicle emergence rate and number, with a positive dose response.
- Intervention effect Ethephon lowered chilling hours needed to reach 20% panicle emergence.
- Intervention effect Drone spraying used one sixth of the solution volume of manual spraying.
- Intervention effect Drone spraying was two thirds less effective at suppressing bud break than manual spraying.
- Intervention effect Drone spraying significantly promoted flowering comparably to manual spraying.
