Sentence examples for terminal stress from inspiring English sources

Phenology is important in determining grain yield response also because quick maturing cultivars often escape from severe stress while late maturing cultivars may be affected by terminal stress (Singh et al. 1996).

Mid-season stress is defined by the regression equation Y ˆ s = a + b 1 Y c + b 2 b l + b 3 b l 2 and terminal stress by Y ˆ s = a + b 1 Y c + b 2 b l, where Y s ^ is the regression estimate of the stress yield, Y s is the measured stress yield, Y c is the non-stress control yield, bl the days to flowering under non-stress, a the intercept and b1, b2 and b3 the regression coefficients.

These data further support the contention that overexpression of α-syn produces a phase of axonal or terminal stress prior to overt degeneration that can have significant functional consequences.

However, the terminal stress in our experiment is representative of the most common drought events in the Sahel [ 54, 68].

Reduced growth duration (with early flowering) is also an important mechanism as the plant generally uses less water and can also avoid the end of season (terminal) stress.

Differences in QTL location were observed for SPAD chlorophyll meter reading and stem TNC in pre-flowering, greenhouse-grown plants subject to terminal stress (Asfaw and Blair in press).

This study assessed the drought response of 64 small red-seeded genotypes of common bean grown in a lattice design replicated twice under contrasting moisture regimes, terminal drought stress and non-stress, in Ethiopia during the dry season from November 2014 to March 2015.

This RIP consists of 145 F7 RILs segregating for seedling heat-stress tolerance, terminal drought-stress tolerance, grain and stover yield components, and downy mildew resistance.

In these areas, since rainfall is low and highly erratic, terminal drought stress is the major yield constraint. Moisture stress during post-flowering stage is the most significant yield reducing factor in the semi-arid tropics [ 6– 11].

In Ethiopia, the lack of an alternate season and reliable irrigation facilities led us to plant later in the long rainy season to obtain terminal drought stress or near the beginning of the short rainy season for intermittent and terminal drought stress.

Thus, the EST set we used is novel and represents genes that are up and downregulated in response to terminal drought stress, and can thereby help several genes that have not been shown to be previously associated with drought stress in chickpea.
