Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Lint yield of Bt hybrid cotton increased by 10-20% relative to non-hybrid Bt cotton.
- Intervention effect Dry matter accumulation was faster in hybrid cotton than in non-hybrid Bt cotton.
- Intervention effect Mid-day depression of photosynthesis was slighter in hybrid cotton than in non-hybrid Bt cotton.
- Intervention effect Bt hybrid cotton showed more severe premature senescence than the control cotton 33B, particularly in drought years.
- Mechanism Premature senescence of Bt hybrid cotton is attributed to heavier boll load and lower roots/stems ratio.
