Abstract

Winter waterlogging and summer drought may become more prevalent as a result of climate change. Their effects on the growth and yield of winter wheat were investigated. Wheat was grown in lysimeters in an unheated glasshouse, over two seasons. Seed rate was included as an additional factor in the first season, and cultivar in the second. Root growth was investigated in both seasons using mini-rhizotrons. Waterlogging for 44 days at 93 days after sowing in 2002, and 58 days at 64 days after sowing in 2003, decreased grain yield by 20% and 24%, respectively. Drought during grain filling further decreased yields but there was no evidence that winter waterlogged plants were more susceptible to damage from drought the following summer, the effects of the two stresses being additive. Waterlogging decreased the total length, but not the final depth of the root system. Plots with a lower plant density demonstrated a smaller decrease in yield due to waterlogging. There was a significant positive linear relationship between the number of shoots per plant and nodal root axes per plant. There appeared to be a difference between cultivars in root system architecture, and in their response to waterlogging, but these differences were not reflected in grain yield.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
