Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect In a field experiment, poorly drained plots reduced Coker 9877 wheat grain weight by 51% relative to well-drained plots.
- Mechanism Reduced kernel number contributed to wheat yield depression under waterlogging.
- Mechanism Reduced kernel weight contributed to wheat yield depression under waterlogging.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging did not affect wheat stand establishment as a contributor to yield depression.
- Association Flag-leaf photosynthesis correlated with grain weight among greenhouse wheat cultivars.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging slightly suppressed wheat flag-leaf photosynthesis and leaf conductance.
- Observation No significant treatment-by-cultivar interaction occurred in wheat physiological responses.
- Observation Commercial wheat cultivars had equally poor waterlogging tolerance.
- Recommendation The authors call for identification of waterlogging tolerance in wheat cultivars for Gulf Coast states.
