Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Source or sink restriction significantly decreased current photosynthesis and its contribution to grain yield.
- Intervention effect Source limitation increased stem and spike reserve contribution to seed filling.
- Intervention effect Stem reserve mobilization was greater in source restricted than control and sink restricted plants.
- Intervention effect Drought significantly decreased grain yield in spike halved plants.
- Intervention effect Additional nitrogen increased dry matter allocation to grain in spike halved plants.
- Intervention effect Additional postanthesis nitrogen did not increase dry matter allocation to grain after removal of all leaves except the flag leaf.
