Effects of plant density and nitrogen rate on lodging-related stalk traits of summer maize

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2016
Stalk lodging is a major constraint to limit grain yield under increased planting density in modern maize (Zea mays L.) production. A 3-year field experiment was imposed to study the effects of plant density and nitrogen (N) rate on stalk lodging and ...
