Download or read book Maize Crop written by A. Solaimalai and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-05-10 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maize is one of the versatile emerging crops with wider adaptability under varied agro-climatic conditions. Globally, maize is known as queen of cereals because it has the highest genetic yield potential among the cereals. It is cultivated on nearly 150 m/ha in about 160 countries having wider diversity of soil, climate, biodiversity and management practices that contributes 36 % (782 m/t) in the global grain production. The United States of America (USA) is the largest producer of maize contributes nearly 35 % of the total production in the world. It is the driver of the US economy. This book talks about the improvement, production, protection and post harvest technology of the maize crop. Note: T& F does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.

Download or read book The Influence of N Fertilization and Plant Population on Nutrient Uptake Several Yield Components and Some Agronomic Characteristics of Five Corn Zea Mays L Hybrids written by Donald William Kemper and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field experiments were conducted in 1969 and 1970 to determine the effects of corn hybrid, rate of applied nitrogen and plant population on nutrient uptake, yield, several yield components and several agronomic characteristics of corn (Zea mays L.). The corn was planted at equidistant intervals with plant spacings ranging from 25,4 to 50.8 on, the range of plant populations was 39,520 to 158,080 plants/ha. Nitrogen was broadcast in 67 kg increments (0 to 538 kg of nitrogen/ha) at planting as ammonium nitrate. The corn hybrids used wereN6 x B14, N31 x N28, N28 x C103, Nebr. 808 and Ner. 501D. Irrigation water was supplied as necessary. Ramrod and atrazine were applied for weed control at the rate of 3.36 and 1.12 kh/ha respectively. The parameters measured include the following: uptake of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulfur (percentage uptake, uptake/plant and uptake/unit area) and dry matter accumulation at the 6-, 11-leaf and at the silking stage were measured. Crain yield, the number of cars and plants per plot and the number of ears per 100 plants, shelling percentage, dry matter of the graing, car lenght, ear width, 100 kernel weight, grain protein, dates of 50% tassel and 50% silked, and dates of the first and last pollen shed were the measured parameters. Plant height, stalk diameter, leaf area and LAI were measured only in 1969. Lodging, breakage and stripping damage were measured only in 1970 becuase of severe wind damage to the crop. As a result of decreased plant size, the uptake of nutrition...
Download or read book Maize Stress Ecophysiology and Regulation written by Jiwang Zhang and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To face the double pressures from the changing environment and increasing demand of the growing population globally, maize plays an essential role in securing food safety due to its strong adaptability. With climate change, the severity of extreme environmental stresses is projected to be more frequent, which affects maize growth, physiological processes, and productivity. It is important to explore the physiological mechanisms and regulatory measures in response to abiotic stresses. The interactions between crop and environmental stresses are multistep and complex. The stress resistance response of maize is still an extremely complicated process. Studies on responses of maize growth, yield, or quality under stress conditions are growing exponentially, but the description at a physiological or biochemical level is still unclear. In addition, new knowledge of maize hybrids with adversity resistance has not been deeply excavated. Hence, it is necessary to capture current knowledge on the impact of abiotic stress on maize, especially the mechanisms and regulation of maize responses under multiple stresses, and to provide potential solutions that will ensure a sustainable supply of nutritious food to meet the demand from an increasing population under a changing climate.
