Abstract excerpt
High nighttime temperatures (HNT) tend to diminish rice quality by disrupting assimilate translocation and grain filling process in rice (Oryza sativa L.). However, there is controversy remains regarding whether source or sink limitation are the primary driver under HNT during grain filling period. Additionally, the physiological mechanisms underlying the genotypic variation in the response of grain protein...
