Effects of Temperature, Solar Radiation, and Vapor-Pressure Deficit on Flower Opening Time in Rice
Flower opening in the early morning helps to avoid sterility of rice (Oryza sativa L.) caused by heat stress at anthesis. Although flower opening time (FOT) is under genetic control, it is also affected by weather, particularly by air temperature (Ta). However, the effects of Ta, solar radiation (Rs...
