Combating Dual Challenges in Maize Under High Planting Density: Stem Lodging and Kernel Abortion

Adnan Noor Shah et al.

Summary: High plant density is beneficial for increasing maize production but poses risks of stem lodging and kernel abortion. Understanding morphophysiological and genetic characteristics, as well as the impact of sugar metabolism on lodging resistance and kernel abortion, can help mitigate these risks. Effective management strategies, including genotype selection and plant growth regulator application, can control the impact of stem lodging and kernel abortion on maize yield.
