Sterility and Poor Pollination Due to Early Flower Opening Induced by Methyl Jasmonate
Flower opening in the early morning helps avoid sterility induced by heat stress at anthesis in rice (Oryza sativa L.). A pot experiment was conducted to reveal the effects of methyl jasmonate (MeJA) on flower opening time (FOT), sterility, pollination, and anther dehiscence. Four mmol L−1 MeJA solu...
