Abstract: | Two-row (cv. Igri) and six-row (cv. Plaisant) winter barley cultivars were incorporated into a field trial at Sutton Bonington (1984–1985) where the effects of chlormequat (CCC) applied at the three-leaf stage (main stem) and the onset of stem elongation were compared. CCC had no influence on lodging as the area cropped with ‘Igri’ completely lodged while no lodging occurred for the cultivar ‘Plaisant’.Neither CCC treatment nor cultivar influenced the rate, duration or pattern of biomass accumulation. CCC application in either the autumn or spring increased harvest index and thus grain yield for both genotypes. Mean grain mass linearly declined as ear population was increased by CCC application, with the number of grains per ear unchanged. A parabolic response of grain yield to the number of ears was inferred and an analysis was used to determine the optimum ear density. |
