Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid priming significantly boosted tillers per unit area, number of grains per spike and 1000-grain weight of winter wheat compared with control.
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid priming gave higher productivity and biomass of winter wheat compared with control.
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid could induce up-regulation of diverse antioxidants in winter wheat sown under low temperature, which the authors suggest offsets the adverse effects of late sowing.
- Intervention effect Ascorbic acid priming enhances stand establishment of wheat sown under low temperature, according to the authors.
