Percentage of Dehisced Thecae and Length of Dehiscence Control Pollination Stability of Rice Cultivarsat High Temperatures

Global warming may reduce rice yield through poor pollination caused by high temperatures at flowering. The dominant parameter controlling the pollination stability in rice cultivars at high temperatures was studied. We examined the effects of a high daytime temperature (35.0ºC, 37.5ºC, 40.0ºC) and...
