From: Disentangling the Roles of Plant Water Status and Stem Carbohydrate Remobilization on Rice Harvest Index Under Drought

Fig. 5

Relationships between plant water status (as indicated by stomatal conductance at anthesis) and stem carbohydrate remobilization (as indicated by stem starch content) across IRRI drought and well-watered experiments. Correlations are shown between stomatal conductance and stem starch levels at anthesis (A), maturity (B), and the difference between anthesis and maturity (C) among groups whose difference in harvest index between high-HI and low-HI genotype pairs appeared to be stable (Pairs 1, 2, and 3) or drought-responsive (Pairs 5 and 6). The checks were IR74371-70-1-1 (high-HI) and IR64 (low HI)
