Higher Leaf Area Growth Rate Contributes to Greater Vegetative Growth of F1 Rice Hybrids in the Tropics
The early vigor of hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) developed in temperate areas has been mainly attributed to its higher tillering rate. The objective of this study is to identify factors that contribute to greater vegetative growth of Fi hybrid rice recently developed in the tropics. We analyzed data...
