Sentence examples for spike weight from inspiring English sources
Although the differences in spike weight between genotypes decreased with time, they were still significant at the end of the grain filling period (Additional file 1: Figure S2a).
Five traits were evaluated in each field experiment: 1) Dry spike weight: Plants were tagged at anthesis and spikes were collected at 35, 42 and 49 DAA.
In the current study, we also detected a marginally significant reduction in TKW and in dry spike weight during grain filling associated with the gpc1 mutant genotype.
The main outcome of this process was the reduction in glumes toughness and the increase of the kernels weight proportion in the total spike weight (SpHI, spike harvest index) [ 16].
To test the effects of the GPC mutations on yield components in a tetraploid background, we measured thousand kernel weight (TKW) in three field environments and dry spike weight in the Davis field experiment.
Among the differentially expressed genes, we identified genes that may be involved in glumes toughness and threshability, nutrient remobilization and the proportion of kernels in the whole spike weight and other agronomic traits evolved under domestication.
This consisted of retrofitting tip weights to 70% of the spikes' weights.
Consistent with the previous findings, stem water soluble carbohydrates and spike dry weight at anthesis contributed to thousand grain weight and grains per spike, respectively.
We statistics plant height, Ear length, stronger spikelet number, kernels per spike, grain weight per spike, Tiller number and thousand kernel weight (TKW) of CS, CS-n.
Lengthening SEP, for instance by photoperiodic sensitivity, without altering the cycle to anthesis (AT) has been proposed as an alternative way to increase spike dry weight, and in turn GN.
The impact of different allelic combinations of VERNALIZATION1 (VRN1) and PHOTOPERIOD1 (PPD1) on the development of reproductive structures, spike dry weight (SDW) and its links to the duration of stem elongation (SE) and yield components was assessed using Near Isogenic Lines (NILs) of the cultivar Sunstate for both genes.
