Abstract

In rye cv. Petkus and Zelder the date of emergence of the flag leaves was almost the same for all plants irrespective of the number of leaves (10-13) produced. Correlation coefficients for the relationship between total leaf area and number of leaves were + 0.45 and + 0.44 and for that between number of spikelets per ear and number of leaves + 0.61 and + 0.69 for the 2 varieties, respectively. Average surface area per leaf increased with increasing number of leaves.-R.B. (Abstract retrieved from CAB Abstracts by CABI’s permission)
