Effects of exogenous cytokinin on photosynthesis, senescence, and yield performance of inferior rice tillers grown under different nitrogen regimes

Effects of exogenous cytokinin on photosynthesis, senescence, and yield performance of inferior rice tillers grown under different nitrogen regimes

Inferior tillers contribute negligibly to rice grain yields as their late occurrence or prematurity curtails growth. However, 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BA, a synthetic cytokinin) can delay tiller senescence. Our results indicate that foliar application of 6-BA enhanced the distribution and allocation o...
