Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Fully pollinated high-yielding maize hybrids had 74% more grain weight than low-yielding hybrids.
- Intervention effect A high-yielding maize hybrid had 71% more G w under full pollination than with only apical ears pollinated.
- Intervention effect Limiting pollination had little effect on low-yielding maize hybrids.
- Intervention effect The composite [T wa − G w ] was greater at low plant density.
- Intervention effect The composite [T wa − G w ] was greater with limited pollination.
- Association The composite [T wa − G w ] was positively related to N a uptake after anthesis.
- Association The composite [T wa − G w ] was inversely related to N r.
- Observation High-yielding maize hybrids maintained T a and Na during multiple ear development.
- Mechanism Nitrogen uptake after anthesis is regulated by ear sink size relative to photosynthate supply, according to the authors.
