Capturing Maize Stand Heterogeneity Across Yield-Stability Zones Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV)

Sensors, 2019
Despite the new equipment capabilities, uneven crop stands are still common occurrences in crop fields, mainly due to spatial heterogeneity in soil conditions, seedling mortality due to herbivore predation and disease, or human error.

Flow Stability of Patchy Vector Fields and Robust Feedback Stabilization [PDF]

, 2001
The paper is concerned with patchy vector fields, a class of discontinuous, piecewise smooth vector fields that were introduced in AB to study feedback stabilization problems. We prove the stability of the corresponding solution set w.r.t.

Leveraging Genome Editing to Revive Multi-Ear Traits for Climate Resilient Maize: Systematic Review

Ethiopian Journal of Science and Sustainable Development
Maize is central to global food security because of its high yield potential and broad adaptability. However, modern breeding has unintentionally narrowed its genetic base by favoring a single-ear ideotype, thereby reducing resilience to climate stress ...
