Heat-Induced Floret Sterility of Hybrid Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Cultivars under Humid and Low Wind Conditionsin the Field of Jianghan Basin, China

Projected global warming is expected to increase the occurrence of heat-induced floret sterility (HIFS) in rice. However, there are few field-scale studies that could aid in predicting the potential risks to rice yield and developing countermeasures against yield losses. The aim of this study was to...
