Sentence examples for main stem growth from inspiring English sources

Results were similar for correlations between secondary branch number and main stem growth rate (data not presented).

Overall, the results confirmed a positive effect of qTSN4 on panicle spikelet number, which in turn was correlated with the main stem growth rate during panicle development.

On average for all experiments and treatments, the QTL increased the main stem growth rate by 38%% and SN by 15%%.

In GH, the main stem growth rate was calculated from PI to heading and in the field from two weeks after PI to flowering.

Fig. 4 Relationships between main stem growth rate and spikelet number (SN) of main tiller of the parents (black symbols) and the NILs (grey symbols) of two genetic backgrounds.

The graphs describing panicle architecture and main stem growth rate in relation to spikelet number were represented with standard error (standard deviation divided by square root of the number of samples).

Fig. 4 Genetic variation in grain weight at harvest with 100 or 50% grains per spike on main stem during grain growth under well watered (A) and post anthesis moisture stress (B) in four wheat cultivars.

Fig. 5 Genetic variation in single grain weight (A, B) and grain number (C, D) in presence and absence of leaves on main stem during grain growth under well water (A, C) and post anthesis water stress (B, D) in four wheat cultivars.

The spikelet number on the main tiller was positively correlated with the main stem dry weight-based growth rate during panicle development for both genetic backgrounds (Fig. 4a and b) and both GH and field (Fig. 4c and d).

Emergence, growth and death of every leaf on the main stem and branches, and plant growth and N uptake were determined from germination to full senescence.

Spikelet number on the main tiller was correlated with stem growth rate during panicle development, indicating that effects on panicle size seemed related to resources available per tiller.
