Other claims from this paper (14)
- Intervention effect Waterlogging reduced grain yield by 21.5%.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging reduced root weight by 34.4%.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging reduced root length by 34.5%.
- Observation Yangmai25 combined high yield and waterlogging tolerance, with an 11.8% yield reduction.
- Observation Yangmai25 had the lowest shallow root weight percentage at maturity.
- Observation Yangmai25 had the highest deep root weight percentage at maturity.
- Intervention effect Waterlogging inhibited vitality and nitrogen assimilation efficiency in shallow roots.
- Observation Yangmai25 sustained significantly higher shallow root vitality and nitrogen assimilation efficiency.
- Observation Ningmai9 sustained significantly higher shallow root vitality and nitrogen assimilation efficiency.
- Observation Yangmai25 displayed the largest flag leaf area.
- Association Greater root weight and length significantly enhanced shoot biomass and grain yield, primarily through greater top leaf photosynthesis.
- Association Photosynthesis in the top two leaves depended on shallow root weight, length, vitality and nitrogen assimilation efficiency.
- Association Third leaf photosynthesis was associated with more deep roots.
- Recommendation The authors recommend improving shallow root traits and nitrogen assimilation while maintaining deep root distribution to reduce yield losses.
