Characterization of the Effect of Increased Plant Density on Canopy Morphology and Stalk Lodging Risk. [PDF]
Les plantes réagissent à l'environnement et aux interventions de la direction en subissant des modifications architecturales et structurelles. Un essai au champ a été mené en Chine en 2016 pour étudier les effets de la population végétale sur le développement morphologique de la canopée de maïs. Les principaux objectifs de la présente étude étaient (i)

Subsoil tillage improved the maize stalk lodging resistance under high planting density [PDF]
Lodging reduces maize yield and quality. The improvement in maize lodging resistance has proven to be instrumental in maximizing the yield potential of maize varieties under high-density planting. Tillage practices accommodate larger groups by enhancing soil conditions.

The effect of plant weight on estimations of stalk lodging resistance. [PDF]
Abstract 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. the plant’s own weight) exceed the stalk

Biomechanical Phenotyping Pipeline for Stalk Lodging Resistance in Maize
Stalk lodging (structural failure crops prior to harvest) significantly reduces annual yields of vital grain crops. The lack of standardized, high throughput phenotyping methods capable of quantifying biomechanical plant traits prevents comprehensive understanding of the genetic architecture of stalk lodging resistance. A phenotyping pipeline developed

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 than the stem itself.

Maize Stalk Lodging: Flexural Stiffness Predicts Strength [PDF]
Late‐season stalk lodging in maize (Zea mays L.) is a major agronomic problem that has far‐reaching economic ramifications. More rapid advances in lodging resistance could be achieved through development of selective breeding tools that are not confounded by environmental factors.

Stalk Lodging: A Portable Device for Phenotyping Stalk Bending Strength of Maize and Sorghum [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Stalk lodging (breakage of plant stems prior to harvest) is a major problem for both farmers and plant breeders. A limiting factor in addressing this problem is the lack of a reliable method for phenotyping stalk strength.

Stalk Bending Strength is Strongly Associated with Maize Stalk Lodging Incidence Across Multiple Environments [PDF]
Abstract Stalk lodging in maize results in substantial yield losses worldwide. These losses could be prevented through genetic improvement. However, breeding efforts and genetics studies are hindered by lack of a robust and economical phenotyping method for assessing stalk lodging resistance.

High throughput phenotyping of cross-sectional morphology to assess stalk lodging resistance. [PDF]
Abstract Background Stalk lodging (mechanical failure of plant stems during windstorms) leads to global yield losses in cereal crops estimated to range from 5% to 25% annually. The cross-sectional morphology of plant stalks is a key determinant of stalk lodging resistance.
