Sentence examples for increased flowering from inspiring English sources

The earliest observed manifestation of rootstock-induced dwarfing in this study was increased flowering in the spring of the second year after grafting.

To examine causes of variation in assortative mating, we compared variance in flowering time among groups, based on the hypothesis that increased flowering time variance could potentially be linked with increased assortative mating.

As the allele that increased flowering time decreased yield, the co-localization of the two QTLs could partially explain the significant and negative genetic correlations between flowering time and yield that we found.

A reduction in soil water during the dry season has been associated with increased flowering activity in a palm swamp, a permanently flooded herbaceous community (Ramírez and Brito 1987).

The effects of increased flowering and reduced sylleptic shoot number and length in year 1 became amplified in successive growth seasons, and within 3 years, scions grafted on dwarf or semi-dwarf rootstocks exhibited a distinctly reduced canopy size and branching density.

Watson et al. [ 56] also found that increased flowering did not result in early growth reduction in pear, and they suggested that the difference between the apple and pear rootstock dwarfing effects might lie in the length of the juvenile period.

They statistically predicted that selection for increased flower numbers in males along with weak selection for increased flower size in females could lead to dimorphic evolution in several other traits including leaf mass [ 18].

CO2 enrichment increased flower number without affecting fruit number, thereby reducing fruit set.

Severely infected plants often have increased flower and pod abortion, reduced seed size, increased defoliation, and prematurely senescence.

Expression of ORF8 and rolA correlated with reduced aerial plant coverage, pedicel length, the total number of flowers per plant and increased flower width relative to the aerial plant coverage.

Expression of rolD and ORF13 correlated with reduced aerial plant coverage, shoot weight, shoot: root ratio and increased flower density and flower width relative to plant coverage, thus being considered of particular interest in Mecardonia breeding.
