Grain yield of Asakazekomugi was lower in the early-sown crop than in the crop sown at the standard date.
Triticum aestivumVerbatim
e1“Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain yield is predicted to decrease in the future because of an increase in air temperature globally”
e5“In contrast, the grain yield of ‘Asakazekomugi’ was lower in the early-sown crop than in the crop sown at the standard date”

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Intervention effect Under early sowing, dry matter production of the Vrn-D1b near-isogenic line Asa exceeded that of Asakazekomugi from mid-March.
- Intervention effect Under early sowing, tiller number and leaf area index of Asa were consistently higher than in Asakazekomugi from mid-March onward.
- Intervention effect Grain yield of Asa was higher with early sowing than with standard sowing.
- Mechanism Higher grain yield of Asa under early sowing may be due to its maintenance of high dry matter production after the jointing stage.
- Mechanism Early-sown Asakazekomugi could not effectively absorb solar radiation to produce dry matter, possibly because Vrn-D1 accelerated stem elongation in the cold season.
