Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Winter wheat cultivars did not differ in mean spring plant density or grain yield.
- Observation Winter wheat cultivars differed for yield components, test weight and protein concentration.
- Observation The response of winter wheat to increasing plant density was generally not cultivar specific.
- Observation Plant density by cultivar interactions were significant only for kernels per spike in winter wheat.
- Intervention effect Grain yield of winter wheat increased with increasing spring plant density.
- Intervention effect Spikes per m2 and kernels per m2 of winter wheat increased with increasing spring plant density.
- Observation Maximum grain yield of winter wheat occurred at 140 plants m −2.
- Intervention effect A spring plant density of 21.5 plants m −2 gave winter wheat grain yield equal to spring wheat grain yield.
