Proposed mechanism by which cytokinins mediate changes in the number of spikelets per panicle in response to high temperature treatments during the early reproductive phase in rice. -, +, and 0 indicate a decrease, an increase, and relative stability in a certain trait under high temperature treatment, respectively. → indicates a significant correlation between two traits. ⤑ indicates no significant correlation between two traits. The value of the trait with a box was decreased in heat-susceptible varieties while increased in heat-tolerant variety SY63 under the three high temperature treatments. The other traits without a box showed similar responses to the high temperature treatments, which showed larger changes in heat-susceptible varieties than that in heat-tolerant variety.
