Nitrogen Split Application Can Improve the Stalk Lodging Resistance of Maize Planted at High Density
The decrease of maize stalk quality is an important reason for stalk lodging during the grain filling stage. In the present study, a maize cultivar was planted at densities of 7.5, 9.0, 10.5, 12.0, and 13.5 × 104 plants ha−1 and subjected to nitrogen ...

The Overlooked Biomechanical Role of the Clasping Leaf Sheath in Wheat Stalk Lodging. [PDF]
The biomechanical role of the clasping leaf sheath in stalk lodging events has been historically understudied. Results from this study indicate that in some instances the leaf sheath plays an even larger role in reinforcing wheat against stalk lodging ...

Spraying Ethephon Effectively Increased Canopy Light Transmittance of Densely Planted Summer Maize, Thus Achieving Synergistic Improvement in Stalk Lodging Resistance and Grain Yield. [PDF]
Increasing planting density is an effective way to improve maize yield, but high plant populations often cause a lodging problem. This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of increasing planting density on stalk lodging resistance and grain

Identification of quantitative trait loci for related traits of stalk lodging resistance using genome-wide association studies in maize (Zea mays L.). [PDF]
Background Stalk lodging is one of the main factors affecting maize (Zea mays L.) yield and limiting mechanized harvesting. Developing maize varieties with high stalk lodging resistance requires exploring the genetic basis of lodging resistance ...

Classification of Corn Stalk Lodging Resistance Using Equivalent Forces Combined with SVD Algorithm
Corn stalk lodging, which involves the breakage of the stalk below the ear following either bad weather, insect infestation or stormy rain, usually leads to harvest loss, increased harvesting time and higher drying costs.

The effect of plant weight on estimations of stalk lodging resistance. [PDF]
Background Stalk lodging (breaking of agricultural plant stalks prior to harvest) is a multi-billion dollar a year problem. Stalk lodging occurs when bending moments induced by a combination of external loading (e.g. wind) and self-loading (e.g.

High-density Phenotype Data of Intermediate Phenotypes Associated with Stalk Lodging Resistance in Maize. [PDF]
Stalk lodging causes global maize (Zea mays L.) yield losses exceeding $6 billion annually. The poorly resolved genetic architecture of stalk lodging resistance, a key determinant of the ability of a plant to remain upright, poses a major constraint for ...
