The decimal code for the growth stages of cereals devised by Zadoks, Chang & Konzak (1974) is reproduced here with expanded definitions of some of the descriptive phrases and stylised drawings of selected stages of wheat, barley and oat plants.

Effect of plant nutrition on aphid size, prey consumption, and life history characteristics of green lacewing

TL;DR: It is shown that quantity of prey supplied to the larvae affects the prey consumption and thereafter the life history characteristics of green lacewing, including pupal duration when fed on S. avenae.

The Response of rate and duration of grain filling to long-term selection for yield in Italian durum wheats

TL;DR: A compensating variability still exists among modern Italian cultivars in both grain number and grain-filling rate, which demonstrates that durum wheat grain yield can be increased while also preserving high grain weights.

Cropping systems for spring and winter cereals under simulated pasture: Yield and yield distribution

TL;DR: The SMC produced the highest yields during the first two cuts (mid-June and mid-July), but regrowth declined thereafter, and the overall yield declined thereafter.

Effects of foliar applied benzyladenine on grain yield and grain protein in wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.)

TL;DR: It is concluded that delay of the senescence induced by BA might allow more energy to be available for N uptake by the crop leading to an increase in grain protein.

An investigation of seed treatments for the control of crow damage to newly-sown wheat

TL;DR: Seed treatments for the control of crow damage to seed and seedling in winter and spring wheat were evaluated in field trials from 2004 to 2007 as discussed by the authors, where six fungicides, three insecticides, a product marketed as a bird repellent and three potential repellents were investigated.

A decimal code for the growth stages of cereals

TL;DR: The decimal code scale for indicating the growth stages of cereals as developed by the authors and published by Eucarpia is explained and described.

The identification of growth stages in winter wheat with reference to the application of growth‐regulator herbicides

TL;DR: A measure of leaf sheath length might replace the ambiguous criteria presently used to judge the stages of winter wheat most tolerant of herbicides.
