Abstract excerpt
Rice is one of the major food crops grown globally. However, during the wet season, rice suffers significant yield loss due to reduced light intensity caused by overcast clouds when the light intensity is only around 450-500 µmol/m2/s, compared to 1400-1800 µmol/m2/s in summer. This reduction in light intensity leads to a decrease in seed yield, mainly by limiting tiller or panicle numbers. Yield and its...
