Grain weight is one of the most important components of cereal yield and quality. A clearer understanding of the physiological and molecular determinants of this complex trait would …
Maize yield has to be increased in the next decades in order to satisfy world demand. This increase has to be achieved in a scenario of climate change particularly characterised by …
[Objective] Annual rotary tillage often can create a compacted plough pan in shallow soil layers, and has become a key factor hampering high crop yield in some main grain …
Maize (Zea mays L.) yield is a function of the number harvested kernels per unit land area and the individual kernel weight (KW). Kernel weight and its development show a wide …
