A new wavy-canopy architecture shaped by interlaced application of EDAH increases maize yield and lodging resistance at high density

open access: yesCrop Journal
High-density planting increases maize yield but also canopy crowding and stalk lodging. Aiming this contradiction, a wavy canopy was created using interlaced chemical application (IC) of a plant growth retardant at the V14 stage with three densities (60 ...
