Effect of agrotechnical factors on the yield of maize hybrids (Polifactorial long-term experiment Debrecen-Hungary)

, 2014
In our long-term polyfactorial experiment we examined the effect of agrotechnical factors on the yield of maize hybrids. We found that the fertilization, crop rotation and irrigation (in the dry years) has significant effect on the aggregate yield of ...

Genetic analysis of tolerance to combined drought and heat stress in tropical maize.

PLoS ONE
Simultaneous occurrences of heat and drought stresses have a detrimental effect on growth, development and yield of maize. Heat and drought is expected to worsen maize yield losses under climate change. Selecting CDHS tolerant maize hybrids creates great

Conservation and variability of long-range interactions in structurally diverse maize genomes

Nature Communications
Chromatin interactions play critical roles in gene regulation. The genomes of distinct maize inbreds exhibit substantial structural variation, however, F1 hybrids lead to significant hybrid vigor.

Performance of drought‐tolerant maize for silage or grain in conventional and Kura clover perennial groundcover cropping systems

Agrosystems, Geosciences & Environment
Drought‐tolerant (DT) maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids have demonstrated better performance than non‐DT hybrids when drought events are present. The objective of this study was to assess the performance of three DT maize hybrids for whole‐plant dry matter (DM)
