Morris, L. G. & Hooper, S. L. Muscle response to changing neuronal input in the lobster (Panulirus interruptus) stomatogastric system: Spike number vs. spike frequency dependent domains.
Spike number per hectare and grain number per spike made significant contributions to grain yield when all three yield components were considered.
Moreover, in four of six neurons recorded in PPP, insulin caused an initial decrease in spike number before recovering to and exceeding starting spike number.
Subsoiling could even increase spike number under SI conditions, but could not increase the agronomic water use efficiency (AWUE).
In response to mossy fiber bursts, synaptic weights at multiple connections played a crucial role to regulate spike number and positioning in granule cells.
Interestingly, different combinations of synaptic weights optimized either first-spike timing precision or spike number, efficiently controlling transmission and filtering properties.
At maturity, grain was harvested, and spike number, kernel per spike and thousand-kernel weight were determined on 4 pots from each treatment.
Consequently, in all experiments, the effect of insulin was quantified by comparing the maximum effect on spike number with the number of spikes evoked immediately before insulin application.
A dressing N rate of 120 kg N ha−1 at stem-elongation stage increased spike number compared to applications of 0 or 60 kg N ha−1.
Soil temperature had no significant effects on grain yield, kernel number per spike, spike number per pot and thousand-kernel weight, neither did the interaction between [CO2] and soil temperature treatments.
In the irrigated wheat cultivars, grains per spike from the COS seed dressing were significantly improved, and the spike number from COS spraying at tillering stage (Tf1) and returning-green (Tf2) stage increased significantly.
