- Intervention effect Reduced irrigation increased 1000-grain weight by 33% when ozone treatments were pooled.
- Intervention effect Reduced irrigation compensated for the ozone-induced reductions seen in well-watered wheat.
- Intervention effect Full irrigation accelerated the ozone-induced reduction in flag leaf photosynthesis by a week.
- Intervention effect Full irrigation did not change the chlorophyll content index of the flag leaf under ozone.
