2.3.6. High-temperature stress<br />

a. Occurrences <strong>of</strong> high-temperature problems. High temperatures cause high<br />

percentages <strong>of</strong> spikelet sterility in dry season crops in Cambodia, Thailand, and<br />

India; in the first rice crop in Pakistan; and in the regular crops in Iran and tropical<br />

African countries. High percentages <strong>of</strong> spikelet sterility occur if temperatures<br />

exceed 35°C at anthesis and last for more. than 1 hour.<br />
