Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Tall and short isolines differed in height by approximately 1 m in the field.
- Observation Taller isolines had 25 to 39% greater leaf areas.
- Observation Tall isolines had more roots in the upper 60 cm of soil.
- Observation Root number per leaf area did not differ between isolines.
- Intervention effect GA 3 stimulated internode length in tall and 3-dwarf milo.
- Intervention effect GA 3 reduced leaf area, root length and root volume in hydroponic milo.
- Intervention effect GA 3 increased shoot dry weight of short isolines by 9.9%.
- Intervention effect GA 3 decreased tall-isoline root dry weight by 20.7%.
- Intervention effect GA 3 decreased short-isoline root dry weight by the reported 20.4 5%.
- Mechanism Shoot-growth genetic control appears largely independent of root-growth control.
