Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Jointing-stage parental drought increased offspring grain yield 33% under severe pot drought versus common irrigation.
- Intervention effect Post-anthesis parental drought did not significantly improve offspring yield, with a reported -5% difference.
- Intervention effect Among nine tested cultivars, JM22 showed the strongest adaptive intergenerational response and 10.5% greater yield under field drought.
- Intervention effect JM22 offspring from drought-primed parents had enhanced assimilate transport.
- Intervention effect JM22 offspring from drought-primed parents had delayed leaf senescence.
- Intervention effect JM22 offspring from drought-primed parents had improved root plasticity.
- Intervention effect JM22 offspring from drought-primed parents had higher water-use efficiency.
- Intervention effect Two successive generations of drought exposure increased the yield benefit to 15.2%.
- Mechanism The authors attribute enhanced resilience to genome-wide DNA hypomethylation.
- Mechanism The authors propose resource reallocation between drought defense and reproduction as a driver of adaptive plasticity.
