Possibility of Increasing Yield Potential of Rice By Reducing Panicle Height in the Canopy. I. Effects of Panicles on Light Interception and Canopy Photosynthesis

A new rice (Oryza sativa L.) plant type is proposed which is aimed at greater light interception by the leaves during grain filling and reduced susceptibility to lodging. This plant type is based on lowering panicle height in the canopy so that leaves are able to intercept more radiation. Panicle he...
