- Observation The untreated control had the highest grain yield, 868.67 g/m 2.
- Observation Removing 50% of the ear gave the lowest grain yield, 646.33 g/m 2.
- Intervention effect Removing 50% of the ear significantly decreased grain numbers but increased 1000-grain weight.

- Observation Ear removal produced the lowest remobilization rate and contribution, 9.9%.
- Observation Defoliating upper leaves produced the highest remobilization rate and contribution, 39.31%.
- Observation Upper-leaf defoliation significantly decreased photosynthesis contribution to 60.69%.
- Intervention effect Increasing density significantly increased grain yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing density increased grains per square meter and 1000-grain weight.
