Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Late sowing significantly reduced wheat germination and vigour indices.
- Intervention effect Salicylic acid spray increased wheat seed number, thousand seed weight and seed quality.
- Intervention effect KCl spray increased wheat seed number, thousand seed weight and seed quality.
- Mechanism Salicylic acid was reported to alleviate heat effects on wheat photosynthesis through proline metabolism and ethylene formation.
- Intervention effect KCl increased leaf potassium, soluble sugar and proline content.
- Mechanism KCl was interpreted as supporting longer green area duration and higher leaf chlorophyll, contributing to grain yield and quality.
- Recommendation Salicylic acid spray was considered among the most effective heat mitigation sprays.
- Recommendation KCl spray was considered among the most effective heat mitigation sprays.
