Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Water deficit significantly decreased surface area of each cotton organ.
- Intervention effect Water deficit decreased non-foliar organ surface area less than other organs.
- Intervention effect The relative biomass contribution of non-foliar organs increased under water deficit.
- Observation Bracts and capsule walls showed less ontogenetic decline in O2 evolution capacity than leaves.
- Observation Bracts and capsule walls had better antioxidant systems than leaves.
- Mechanism The authors concluded non-foliar photosynthesis is important for cotton yield, especially under water deficit.
