Abstract

---

Pre-anthesis assimilation of stem reserves is considered as an important source for grain filling during post anthesis abiotic stresses that inhibit photosynthesis. Twenty one Pakistani wheat genotypes were evaluated for stem reserve utilization (SRU) using potassium iodide (0.4%) induced desiccation stress 14 days after anthesis. Evaluated genotypes differed significantly (p
