Abstract:
... The major impact of both genotypic and environmental factors on grain-filling efficiency of rice (Oryza sativa L.) makes evaluating cultivar’s grain-filling characteristics highly complicated. To assess grain-filling characteristics, the allocation index (Alli) was defined as a novel indicator representing the pattern of resource allocation in panicles. Alli was calculated as the ratio of source o ...
