Influence of uniconazole and boron on the seed production of hybrid wheat

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: High seed consumption and low seed production is one of the key issues to limit large scale hybrid wheat promotion.This study mainly coped with male sterile lines based on three chemical treatments of uniconazole,Openall and boron and aimed to choose chemical composition which could increase hybrid wheat seed production.The results showed that spraying uniconazole of 5% powder 112.5 g and borax 2 505 g per hectare,seed production could increase 22.2%,outcrossing rate added 6.6 percentages,angle of glume opening increased significantly.
