Grain number responses to pre-anthesis dry matter and nitrogen in improving wheat yield in the Huang-Huai Plain

Abstract Wheat yield components vary between different ecological regions and yield levels. Grain number responses to pre-anthesis dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) in increasing yield were always investigated in spike organs, neglecting the effect of non-spike organ nutrition or overall distribution...
