Post-Anthesis Mobilization of Stem Assimilates in Wheat under Induced Stress

Stem reserves in grain crops are considered important filling under post-anthesis stress the absence/low availability of photosynthetic assimilates. Considerable variation is present among genotypes for stem reserve translocation wheat. Therefore, this study aimed to exploit phenotypic wheat control and chemically induced conditions. The six parents their corresponding direct cross combinations was evaluated results signify presence considerable between treatments, genotypes, treatment-genotype interactions. parent LLR-20 depicted highest dry matter contribution assimilates induced-stress Similarly, Nacozari × LLR22, LLR 20, Parula, 21, 22 20 21 showed higher source-sink accumulation selected can be further utilized breeding program strengthen genetic basis tolerance
