Abstract:Heat stress at grain development is a major threat for global wheat production systems. This study investigated the impact of high temperature stress on wheat cultivar HW2041 and its cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line during grain development and its effects on leaf senescence and antioxidant defense mechanisms. Late-sown wheat crops experienced extreme high temperature stress, resulting in a shorter grain growth duration compared to normal-sown crops. Heat stress accelerated leaf senescence, as indicated by … Show more
