Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Radiation and Temperature on Tiller Survival, Grain Number and Grain Yield in Winter Wheat
Gillian N. Thorne,D. W. Wood +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of the environment on shoot survival were studied in winter wheat cv. Plants were given temperature and radiation treatments in growth rooms in two experiments and extra light outdoors in a third experiment: they were at other times grown outdoors.
Journal ArticleDOI
An analysis of morphological development stages in Avalon winter wheat crops with different sowing dates and at ten sites in England and Scotland
John R. Porter,E. J. M. Kirby,W. Day,Jill S. Adam,Margaret Appleyard,Sarah Ayling,C. K. Baker,P. Beale,R. K. Belford,P. V. Biscoe,Anne Chapman,Michael P. Fuller,Janice Hampson,R. K. M. Hay,M. N. Hough,S. Matthews,W. J. Thompson,A. H. Weir,V. B. Anne Willington,D. W. Wood +19 more
TL;DR: In general, crops at northern sites developed more slowly than those in the south and particularly the south-west of England, and there was less variation in the timing of apical stages for later sowings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The yield of sugar beet in relation to weather and length of growing season
TL;DR: Yields of crops sown and harvested on different dates were closely correlated with the amount of solar radiation intercepted by the leaf canopy, and the rate of increase in sugar yield was the same for all sowings.
Journal Article
Seed size variation; its extent, source and significance in field crops
Journal ArticleDOI
An analysis of primordium initiation in Avalon winter wheat crops with different sowing dates and at nine sites in England and Scotland
E. J. M. Kirby,John R. Porter,W. Day,Jill S. Adam,Margaret Appleyard,Sarah Ayling,C. K. Baker,R. K. Belford,P. V. Biscoe,Anne Chapman,Michael P. Fuller,Janice Hampson,R. K. M. Hay,S. Matthews,W. J. Thompson,A. H. Weir,V. B. Anne Willington,D. W. Wood +17 more
TL;DR: The initiation of leaf and spikelet primordia was studied at sites ranging in latitude from Newton Abbot to Aberdeen in crops sown in the middle of September, October and November 1983 with a constant rate of leaf initiation and a constant and more rapid rate of spikelet initiation.
