Potential roles of stigma exsertion on spikelet fertility in rice (Oryza sativa L.) under heat stress

Heat stress during the flowering stage induces declining spikelet fertility in rice plants, which is primarily attributed to poor pollination manifesting as insufficient pollen deposited on the stigma. Plant pollination is associated with anther dehiscence, pollen dispersal characteristics, and stig...
