Table 6 Correlation coefficients between lodging index and traits in synthetic hexalpoid wheat in the field.
From: Development and identification of four new synthetic hexaploid wheat lines with solid stems
Traits | Width of pith | Ratio of wall thickness to outer diameter of culm | Percentage of mechanical tissues | Number of vascular bundles in transverse section | Lodging index |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Width of pith cavity | − 0.998** | − 0.699** | 0.129 | 0.677** | |
Ratio of wall thickness to outer diameter of culm | 0.694** | − 0.09 | − 0.686** | ||
Percentage of mechanical tissues | − 0.018 | − 0.326 | |||
No. vascular bundles in transverse section | 0.078 |
