Fig. 6.

Simulated above-ground biomass and panicle biomass by the ORYZAv3 model (a, b) and by the APSIM-Oryza model (c, d) versus observed data for three contrasting varieties growing in salt stressed conditions.

The observed data presented are average measurements from 3 replications in experiments 3 & 4 for each variety. Simulated data are obtained from the ORYZA v3 model (a, b) and APSIM-Oryza (c, d), considering salinity conditions of the experiments 3 & 4. Lines present the linear relationship between simulated and observed values with intercept at 0.
