Corn response to long‐term seasonal weather stressors: A review
Abstract Long‐term weather patterns (environmental conditions or stresses exceeding 10 days in length) have the potential to influence corn (Zea mays L.) growth, development, and yield. This review summarizes the current knowledge (with emphasis placed on the Midwestern U.S. production environment) on how long‐term weather conditions affect corn growth

Accelerated leaf appearance and flowering in maize after four decades of commercial breeding
Abstract Maize breeding programs have indirectly altered many plant traits; however, our knowledge of some important phenological traits remains unexplored. One such trait is leaf appearance rate, which is crucial for predicting maize development. We studied 40 short‐season (103‐day) and 38 long‐season (111‐day) hybrids released from 1980 to 2020 by ...

The present work aimed to study the tiller demography of tall fescue (TF) and tall wheatgrass (TW) when reproductive tillers are removed at different stages of plant development. The results will help to improve management recommendations to obtain denser TF and TW swards.

Improving wheat productivity through integrated management of Avena ludoviciana
Abstract In Australia, wheat planting is preferred in June compared with May to kill early cohorts of weeds before planting, particularly in fields with a history of high weed infestation. However, wheat grain yield is often reduced for June planting.

A morphogenetic crop model for sugar-beet (Beta vulgaris L.) [PDF]
This paper is the instructions for the proceeding of the International Symposium on Crop. Sugar beet crop models have rarely taken into account the morphogenetic process generating plant architecture despite the fact that plant architectural plasticity ...

Simulated impacts of winter rye cover crop on continuous corn yield and soil parameters
Abstract Cover crops (CC) provide numerous ecosystem services such as improving soil health, reducing nutrient loss, increasing productivity, and mitigating greenhouse gas emission. However, adoption of CC has been hindered by perceived negative impacts on main crop productivity and additional production costs.

Abstract Methods allowing quick generation cycles are available for various crop species but are limited to spring genotypes. However, winter types predominate in many crops including wheat and barley. Different from spring ones, winter genotypes need to be treated in low temperature for extended periods to accelerate flowering.

Calibration of a crop growth model in APSIM for 15 publicly available corn hybrids in North America
Abstract Application of crop growth models (CGMs) in plant breeding is limited by the large number of candidate cultivars that breeders work with and the large number of CGM parameters that affect cultivar performance. The objectives of this study were to (1) calibrate 15 publicly available maize hybrids in Agricultural Production Systems sIMulator and

Base temperature for leaf appearance and phyllochron of selected strawberry cultivars in a subtropical environment [PDF]
Leaf development is characterized by the appearance of new leaves and is related to crop leaf area index, which affects the interception of solar radiation used for photosynthesis and biomass production and ultimately defines crop yield.

Variability and synchronism of leaf appearance and leaf elongation rates of eleven contrasting rice genotypes [PDF]
Leaf appearance and leaf elongation rates in rice play an essential role in determining the development of the plants' architecture which affects their adaptability to varying environments.
