Sentence examples for tiller formation from inspiring English sources
Rice tiller number is one of the most important factors that determine grain yield, while nitrogen is essential for the crop growth and development, especially for tiller formation.
Genotypes possessing SUB1 show better regulation of non-structural carbohydrates during submergence and restore leaf and tiller formation faster during recovery, resulting in higher yields.
It could potentially involve the accumulation of ethylene that may then prevent tiller formation and/or trigger early senescence of tiller primordia.
Tillering is not related to stem NSC status but more to leaf area under SF, indicating that deficiency in concurrent assimilation due to reduced leaf area could reduce tiller formation and/or promote senescence under SF.
Shoots of the intolerant genotypes usually senesced and degraded with time when submerged and surviving plants recovered more slowly as shown by slower shoot elongation and leaf and tiller formation.
Changes in plant height and tiller formation were monitored over time to assess differences in recovery pattern between tolerant and sensitive genotypes and also between genotypes that contain only the SUB1 locus versus FR13A and its two derivatives, IR49830 and IR40931.
Deterioration of hyphae and the hypha plant interface occurred and in one transformant reduced tillering (formation of new plants, referred to in agronomy as tillers) and death of infected plants.
Hanada et al. (1990) suggested that lack of oxygen for respiration or accumulation of ethylene might inhibit tiller bud formation and growth.
However towards the end of 2010, 30 miRNAs were identified as significantly down- or up-regulated in rice under drought stress by microarray analysis where total RNA was extracted from leaf tissue of rice across a wide range of developmental stages, from tillering to inflorescence formation [ 19].
The moc1 mutant plants have only one main culm without any tillers because of the defect in the formation of tiller buds [1].
These include variation in underwater photosynthesis and associated traits together with the ability for continued root growth and function during submergence in addition to early tiller and leaf area formation during recovery.
