Table 3.
Percentage of grain yield (GY) variation across genotypes within each water treatment (WW, IS and SS) explained by the combination of kernel Δ18O, leaf and kernel ash content
Combination of traits | WW (% GY) | IS (% GY) | SS (% GY) |
---|---|---|---|
Leaf ash + kernel ash | 15·2 | 56·3 | 52·2 |
Leaf ash + kernel Δ18O | 25·0 | 33·5 | 28·2 |
kernel ash + kernel Δ18O | 24·4 | 60·4 | 35·0 |
Leaf ash + kernel ash + kernel Δ18O | 26·3 | 60·8 | 52·6 |
