Abstract

In order to study the effect of planting density on ear characters of corn with uneven plant height,an experiment was conducted based on a split plot design with corn hydrids XY335,ZD958 and GY1 as main plot and planting density of 45000,53250,61500,69750 and 78000 plant/hm2 as subplot.The planting density significantly affected the ear length and diameter,bald tip degree,row number per ear,grain number per row,ear grain weight,seed-set percentage,bract and silk dry weight,cob and ear pedicle dry weight.There was significant difference among hybrids associated with variation of planting density for ear length,bald tip degree,grain number per row,ear grain weight,seed-set percentage,bract and silk dry weight.Variation coefficient from planting density for ear length,grain number per row,ear grain weight,seed-set percentage,bract and silk dry weight ranked as tall hybrid,medium hybrid and short hybrid.Increased planting density led to decrease in ear grain number due mainly to reduced grain number per row,and the increase of bald tip was larger than the decrease of ear length and width.Percentage of grain to ear was a stable trait that was less affected by planting density for a given hybrid.
