The economic consequences of yield loss and grain quality changes due to high
temperature, and the physiological and molecular basis of high temperature responses in …

… of transport through the peduncle of wheat can be halved without reducing grain growth (Wardlaw
& Moncur, 1976). If there is a limit on grain growth imposed by the vascular system it …

Controlled-environment conditions were used to examine the effects of cultivar and of
temperature and illuminance after anthesis on grain setting and on the duration and rate of grain …

… Spare sink capacity is needed if a cultivar is to be able to take advantage of unusually
favorable conditions during grain growth. On the other hand, there must be mechanisms which …

… The second experiment did, however, confirm the reduction in kernel weight at the higher
temperatures, and also provided evidence that kernel weight was reduced if the ripening …

Wheat plants (Triticum aestivum L. ‘Lyallpur’), limited to a single culm, were grown at day/night
temperatures of either 18/13 C (moderate temperature), or 27/22 C (chronic high …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants were grown to anthesis at 18/13ºC day/night and either
retained at 18/13ºC or transferred to a higher temperature (24/19 or 30/25ºC) for the grain-…

Selected cultivars of wheat from both a wide geographic and genetic background were
examined under controlled conditions in the Canberra phytotron, for their response to high …

Increasing temperatures from 21/16C to 30/25C, during the period of development from
anthesis to maturity, substantially reduced grain dry weight in wheat. Although this was …

Rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. Calrose) growing at 27/22¦C was either transferred to day/night
temperatures ranging from 24/19 to 39/34¦C 7days after heading and held at these temperatures …
