Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Reduced radiation produced an 8.9 t ha–1 yield gap in Xianyu 335.
- Intervention effect Reduced radiation produced a 5.8 t ha–1 yield gap in Zhengdan 958.
- Observation XY335 yielded more than ZD958 under high radiation.
- Observation ZD958 yielded more than XY335 under low radiation.
- Intervention effect Canopy light interception and photosynthetic rates declined as radiation declined.
- Intervention effect Aboveground dry matter declined 11.1% at silking.
- Intervention effect Aboveground dry matter declined 21% at maturity.
- Intervention effect Low radiation reduced root weight in XY335 by 54.6% at silking.
- Recommendation The authors recommend selecting suitable cultivars to increase maize yield and reduce radiation related yield gaps.
