The genetic architecture of maize stalk strength. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Stalk strength is an important trait in maize (Zea mays L.). Strong stalks reduce lodging and maximize harvestable yield. Studies show rind penetrometer resistance (RPR), or the force required to pierce a stalk rind with a spike, is a valid approximation

High-density Phenotype Data of Intermediate Phenotypes Associated with Stalk Lodging Resistance in Maize [PDF]
Scientific DataStalk 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 ...

Physiological Influence of Stalk Rot on Maize Lodging after Physiological Maturity
Agronomy, 2021 The stalk lodging caused by stalk rot after physiological maturity (PM) is a major factor restricting further development of mechanical grain harvesting in China. The physiological mechanism of stalk rot on maize stalk lodging after PM is not clear. This
