Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Flag leaf length, width and area correlated positively with grain weight and grain number per ear.
- Association Flag leaf length, width and area correlated negatively with 1 000-seed weight.
- Association The positive relationship of flag leaf width and area with grains per ear was extremely significant.
- Association Grain number per ear had a larger effect on grain weight per ear than thousand-seed weight.
- Association Grain number per ear correlated negatively with thousand-seed weight.
- Association Direct effects of flag leaf length and width on three ear traits were negative.
- Association Flag leaf area had the largest direct effect on the three ear traits.
- Association The indirect effect of flag leaf width exceeded that of length.
- Recommendation The authors recommend selecting flag leaf width and area to enhance wheat ear grain number.
