Abstract Kernel set response to plant density was examined in terms of physiological processes underlying kernel temperate (Te), tropical (Tr), and × (TeTr) maize ( Zea mays L.) hybrids. Four field experiments were performed a subtropical environment, treatments combined two new popular commercial hybrids each group germplasm background with five densities (2–30 plants m −2 ). Determinations included growth rate (PGR S ) topmost ear (EGR during the period bracketing silking, grain yield, its...
Abstract This study quantified sunflower ( Helianthus annuus L.) water use efficiency for seed (WUEg) and oil yield (WUEo) their components (i.e., evapotranspiration [ET], yields) in response to plant density increments studied, particular, the underlying processes relevant responses of crop ET (i.e. uptake pattern, intercepted photosynthetically active radiation [iPAR], soil depletion profile). Sunflower was grown at 3, 6, 9 plants m −2 Season 1 2, 3 6 2. Measurements included (i) content...
