Boron (B) deficiency limits reproductive growth more than vegetative growth in cereals such
as wheat. The purpose of the present study was to identify the critical stages of anther …

Grain set failure in wheat, caused by boron (B) deficiency, is associated with poorly
developed pollen and anthers. This paper presents results of a study of the effect of B on …

The effect of boron (B) deficiency on reproductive development was examined in a wheat
line SW41 at 4 B levels in a field experiment. The soil B levels (designated BO, B1, B2, B3) …

In the period since the first B symposium in 1997 (Bell and Rerkasem 1997; Dell et al.,
1997), progress in defining either structural or metabolic roles for B in reproductive parts of …

Abstract Effects of boron (B) deficiency on reproductive development and grain set in wheat
was studied in experiments in a sand culture in which grain set was increased by increasing …

Maize (Zea mays L.) plants subjected to severe deficiency of boron (0.0026 ppm B) failed to
produce tassels with functional flowers. In plants subjected to moderate deficiency of boron …

Failure in grain set, in up to 100% of the florets, was frequently observed in the Thailand
Yield Nurseries (TYNs), Thailand Observation Nurseries (TONs) and other wheat …

Boron (B) deficiency causes grain set in wheat to fail. A wide range of genotypic variation in
the response to low B has been observed. Genotypes were screened in low B in soil and …

Boron (B) deficiency depresses wheat, barley and triticale yield through male sterility. On the
basis of field responses to B fertilization, maize (Zea mays L.) is affected by B deficiency in …

Boron (B) deficiency and cold temperatures during the reproductive development of wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) cause failure of grain to set. A pot experiment at the Plant Environment …
