Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Late sowing significantly reduced germination and Vigour Index I.
- Intervention effect Late sowing significantly reduced seed weight, seedling length and dry weight.
- Observation Vigour Index II showed a similar declining trend under heat stress.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid at 400ppm improved seed weight, germination and seedling height.
- Intervention effect Thiourea at 400ppm improved seed weight, germination and seedling height.
- Intervention effect Thiourea increased leaf soluble sugars and proline.
- Mechanism The authors inferred thiourea may maintain green area and elevated chlorophyll to improve seed quality and heat tolerance.
- Recommendation The authors considered salicylic acid at 400ppm and thiourea at 400ppm the most effective foliar applications.
