Other claims from this paper (4)
- Association Water stress decreased relative water content only after 12 days of water restriction.
- Association Malondialdehyde levels were lower on days 12 and 16 of water restriction in all wheat plants evaluated.
- Association Membrane stability index of wheat events 591, 326 and 164 was similar to irrigated controls under water restriction.
- Association Higher proline levels did not result in higher production rates in transgenic wheat plants.
