Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the tillering stage caused the greatest yield penalty, a 10%–15% decrease.
- Observation Waterlogging at the grain filling stage had less effect on yield.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the tillering stage reduced spike and grain numbers per m2.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the jointing and booting stages reduced grain weight through reduced dry matter translocation.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the tillering stage significantly reduced chlorophyll content.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the tillering stage lowered Fv/Fm, apparent electron transport rate and effective quantum yield of photosystem II.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the tillering stage lowered photochemical quenching (qP).
- Intervention effect Waterlogging at the grain filling stage improved leaf photosynthetic capacity and grain yield.
- Observation The tillering stage was the most susceptible growth stage of wheat to waterlogging.
- Recommendation The authors suggest that maintaining photosynthetic performance after anthesis could be a strategy for increasing wheat grain yield.
