Physiological Response of Okra- and Normal-Leaf Cotton Isolines at Two Temperature Regimes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Variations in leaf shape range from highly divided leaves (okra leaf) to normalleaf shape (Meredith, 1 ). Heitholt et al. (1 ) described higher yields of okra-leaf isolines for a given amount of intercepted radiation, indicating that the okra-leaf types utilized more efficiently the intercepted radiation than the normal-leaf types. However, information on physiological parameters of the cotton isolines that can explain the differences in radiation utilization is limited.

Radiation Use Efficiency of Okra- and Normal-Leaf Cotton Isolines
Leaf shapes of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) range from highly divided leaves (okra leaf) to normal leaf shape (Meredith, 1 ). The variation in leaf shape results in differences in canopy architecture and light interception characteristics (Wells and Meredith, 1 ). Heitholt et al. (1 ) described higher yields of okra leaf isolines for a given amount of intercepted radiation, indicating that the o...
متن کاملCanopy photosynthesis and its relationship to plant productivity in near-isogenic cotton lines differing in leaf morphology.
A 2-year study was conducted to determine the relationships between plant canopy photosynthesis, canopy light interception, and plant productivity of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) exhibiting differing leaf morphologies. The near-isogenic lines were from a single background (MD 65-11) and represented the leaf shapes Normal (small leaf lobing), Sub-Okra (intermediate leaf lobing), Okra (large le...
متن کاملBemisia tabaci (Homoptera: Aleyrodidae) biotype B colonization on okra- and normal-leaf upland cotton strains and cultivars.
We compared smooth-leaf okra- and normal-leaf upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) strains and cultivars for susceptibility to colonization by Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) biotype B. Experiments were conducted at seven field sites, five at Holtville, CA, and two at Maricopa, AZ, during 1996-2000. Okra-leaf strains and cultivars, as a group, had lower numbers of adults, eggs, and nymphs compared ...
متن کاملMajor Leaf Shapes of Cotton: Genetics and Agronomic Effects in Crop Production
There exist four major leaf shape alleles in tetraploid cotton: normal, sub-okra/Sea-Island, okra, and super-okra. This allelic series has long served as a model genetic locus both in cotton and the broader leaf development research community. Over the years, numerous studies have attributed various production advantages to specific leaf shapes. The objective of this study was to provide a comp...
متن کاملPhysiological response of Okra cv. Kano to foliar application of putrescine and humic acid under water deficit stress
To investigate effects of putrescine (Put) and humic acid (HA) on fruit yield and physiological attributes of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. 'Kano') under water deficit stress, a field experiment was conducted in split plot based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. Plants were exposed to three different irrigation regimes (33%, 66% and 100% ETc) and were treated with...
