EFFICACY OF EOSIN DYE AND 14C-SUCROSE AS INDICATORS OF PHYSIOLOGICAL MATURITY IN WHEAT
Keyword(s):
Translocations of eosin dye and 14C-sucrose into wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) spikes were evaluated as indicators of physiological maturity. Neither was a precise indicator, as there was a lag phase of up to several days between the cessation of grain growth and dye or 14C-sucrose uptake, varying with available moisture.Key words: Wheat, physiological maturity, eosin, 14C-sucrose
