Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Irrigation at fourth-leaf visibility improved water use efficiency by 9.88–47.62 %.
- Intervention effect Postponed irrigation adversely affected mean leaf area index, total leaf area duration, and biomass at maturity.
- Intervention effect Delayed irrigation at fourth-leaf visibility increased mean net assimilation rate and harvest index.
- Intervention effect Fourth-leaf irrigation gave the highest spike count per hectare, averaging a 13.98 % increase.
- Intervention effect Postponed irrigation reduced mean grain number per spike by 2.47.
- Intervention effect Postponed irrigation increased 1000-grain weight by 1.65 g.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at third- and fourth-leaf visibility produced higher sink capacity.
- Intervention effect Irrigation at fourth-, fifth-, or sixth-leaf visibility produced significantly higher grain-leaf ratios than third-leaf irrigation.
- Intervention effect Fourth-leaf irrigation had superior stability of grain yield and water use efficiency.
