Fig. 7From: Abnormal anther development leads to lower spikelet fertility in rice (Oryza sativa L.) under high temperature during the panicle initiation stagePanicle phenotypes at the beginning and end of temperature treatment and average daytime (7:30–19:30 h) temperature and relative humidity during the entire high temperature treatment period. A indicates the young panicle during the 2nd stage of panicle development at the beginning of temperature treatment, B indicates the spikelets during pollen maturity at the end of temperature treatment. C, D are temperature and relative humidity, respectively, data are the average over four sensors ± standard error of the mean (n = 4) every half hour (the average over 28 days) during the temperature treatments. CK, control temperature treatment; HT, high temperature treatmentBack to article page
