Other claims from this paper (7)
- Association Corn kernel moisture decreased with harvest time.
- Observation Corn kernel dry weight accumulated early in the harvest period.
- Observation Corn kernel dry weight reached a maximum around October 3rd and ceased increasing at ripening.
- Observation Kernel dry weight subsequently decreased as hidden loss.
- Observation Dry weight trends differed among four corn varieties.
- Observation POD, CAT, and SOD activities in corn kernels rose and then declined.
- Observation Antioxidant enzyme activities differed significantly among corn varieties.
