Effects of Top Dressing on Growth and Panicle Dry Weight as Affected by Soil Water Stress at the Early Panicle-Development Stage in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Rice yield is reduced by a short period of water stress at the early panicle-development stage. This study was conducted to examine the factors that reduce the panicle dry weight of rice subjected to water stress and the alleviating effects of top dressing after the stress.
