- Intervention effect Drought stress decreased seed number of bread wheat by 30.3% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Drought stress decreased biological yield of bread wheat by 45.9% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Drought stress decreased chlorophyll a of bread wheat by 31.8% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Drought stress decreased chlorophyll b of bread wheat by 28.1% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Drought stress decreased relative water content of bread wheat by 5.3% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Drought stress increased proline content of bread wheat by 24.3% compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Drought stress increased ion leakage of bread wheat by 147.3% compared with the control.
