Tillering of two wheat genotypes as affected by phosphorus levels

Abstract: ABSTRACT. Tillering plays an important role in wheat yield potential and it is affected by genotype and environmental conditions. This work aimed to study the effects of phosphorus levels on tiller emergence, survival and contribution to yield potential of two wheat cultivars. The experiment was carried out under greenhouse conditions in Botucatu, São Paulo State, Brazil. A 2 x 5 factorial randomized block design with four replications was applied. Two wheat cultivars (IAC 370 and IAC 375) and five phosphorus … Show more

“…It is noticed that plant growth, plant P concentration, total P uptake and P efficiency significantly differed between 2010 and 2011 season. Previous studies have shown that P nutrition could directly alter the pattern of tiller emergence and consequently influence the number of ears per unit of area, which plays an important role in wheat growth and yield potential ( Rodríguez et al, 1999 ; Fioreze et al, 2012 ). Higher P levels could increase wheat tiller emergence, survival and yield ( Fioreze et al, 2012 ).…”

“…The nutrition of grass with P is known to define the plantation yield, which has been suggested to be associated with plant development and tillering in sugarcane (Dillewijn, 1952, El-Tilib et al, 2004, wheat (Fioreze et al, 2012) and rice (Yoshida, 1981). In support of our hypothesis that the four sugarcane cultivars examined displayed differing plant and root morphologies, in our study, cultivars RB85-5156 and RB86-7515 showed high dependency on P availability for both biomass accumulation and tillering.…”

“…Highest number of nonproductive tillers m -2 were produced by control plots while lowest were found at 90 kg P ha -1 that is at par with 60 kg P ha -1 . Higher P rates enhanced tillers survival, emergence and yield, especially for secondary tillers [36]. Plant height (cm) Table 1 represents data regarding the effect of N, P and V on plant height.…”
